City of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 2048 B) The proposed house location maintains at least a 60' separation distance to the nearest adjacent residence, which is the minimal residential side yard separation distance allowed in the RR -113 zone. The orientation of the house is such that the windowless north wall will face the neighboring property to the north, affording both applicant and neighbor a greater degree of privacy. C) Topography and existing low lands on the property, and the necessity of providing a septic system on the property, are factors that make the proposed house locations and orientation the most feasible for this property. 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to pre- serve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance to the Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.28, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the construction of a single family residence in a location 37.3 feet from the front let line and 33.9 feet from the rear lot line, subject to the following copditions: Page 2 of 4
