City of OROJNO <br />Cl IV RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />NO. 2660__________ <br />ORONO <br />A) The proposed second story addition will encroach 4* <br />past the average setback line. This encroachment is on <br />the opposite side of the lot from the affected <br />neighboring residence# and will cause no significant <br />impairment of lake views enjoyed by that neighboring <br />property owner. The proposed patio at grade level# <br />which technically encroaches 15' past the average <br />setback line will cause absolutely no visual impairment <br />to the affected neighbor. <br />B) Existing hardcover on the property in the 75-250' <br />is 32.4%. The Planning Commission finds no hardship <br />that justifies increasing above the existing hardcover <br />percentage# hence any additional hardcover associated <br />with the proposed additions should be offset by <br />removals of existing hardcover elsewhere in the 75-250 <br />zone. <br />C) The proposed additions are intended to continue <br />along the line of the existing house# which is 8.9' <br />from the west side lot line where a 10' west side <br />setback would normally be required. Because the <br />neighboring residence is approximately 25' away from <br />applicant's residence# the 1.1' variance will have no <br />significant impact on reducing open space around the <br />neighboring residence. <br />4. The City Council has considered this application <br />including the findings and recommendations of the Planning <br />Commission# reports by City staff# comments by the applicant <br />and the effect of the proposed variances on the health# <br />safety and welfare of the community. <br />5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on <br />this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally <br />to other property in this zoning district; that granting the <br />variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions# <br />light# air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to <br />neighboring property; would not merely serve as a <br />convenience to the applicant# but is necessary to alleviate <br />a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to <br />preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and <br />would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning <br />Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />•i • . <br />S' <br />C'. <br />fv
