City of ORONO CITY RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL i () F NO. 2850 ORONO C) An unimproved fire lane of 60' is adjacent to property. Applicants maintain portions of unimproved right-of-way as part of yard area adding an additional 2,000+ s.f. of non -hardcover lands to the property. D) Existing landscaping/retaining walls within street yard are required to maintain steep elevations along north property line and to require removal will necessitate additional filling and grading within yard. 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants 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 applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is recessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; 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 one or more of the findings noted above, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivisions 1 and 2 and Section 10.24, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the construction of an addition to the principal structure consisting of a dining room, three -season porch, lakeside deck, and second -floor dormer expansion for bathroom expansion and a detached garage structure, subject to the following conditions: 1.
