r <br /> O <br /> O O <br /> ti <br /> CITY of ORONO <br /> ti <br /> RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL`9kESII04�G NO. 5178 <br /> c. A new single family residence can be constructed on the property <br /> meeting all setbacks and other pertinent zoning standards. <br /> d. The size of the proposed residence and property is consistent with <br /> other approved development in the neighborhood. <br /> 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings <br /> and recommendation of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, <br /> comments by the applicants and the public, and the effect of the proposed <br /> variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. <br /> 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are <br /> peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning <br /> district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic <br /> conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring <br /> property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is <br /> necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to <br /> preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in <br /> keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive <br /> Plan of the City. <br /> CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br /> Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br /> grants a variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-420 Subdivision B to <br /> allow construction of a new residence on a 1.17 acre lot within the RR-1B, 2 acre <br /> minimum zoning district, subject to the following conditions: <br /> 1. Council approval is based on the site plan submitted by the applicants and <br /> annotated by City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A. Any <br /> amendments to the site plan which are not in conformity with City codes will <br /> require further Planning Commission and City Council review. <br /> 2. Authorities granted by this resolution run with the property not with the <br /> applicants, but are permissive only and must be exercised by obtaining a building <br /> permit for the new construction within one year of the date of Council approval, <br /> or the variance will expire on that date (May 24, 2005). <br /> Page 2 of 4 <br />
