CITY of ORONO <br />RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />NO. 2980 <br />A RESOLUTION GRANTING <br />VARIANCES TO <br />!MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE <br />SECTION 10.22, SUBDIVISION 2 AND <br />SECTION 10.03, SUBDIVISION 15 (F) <br />FILE #1649 <br />WHEREAS, Daryl and Elaine Peterson (hereinafter "the <br />applicants") are the owners of the property located at 1921 <br />Fagerness Point Road within the City of Orono (hereinafter <br />"City") and legally described as follows: <br />Lot 18, Fagerness, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter <br />"the property"); and <br />WHEREAS, the applicants have applied to the City for <br />variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivision 2 <br />and Section 10.03, Subdivision 15 (f) to permit the construction <br />of a 2 car detached garage to be located 4.5' from the side lot <br />line where a 10' side setback is normally required, and <br />contributing to a hardcover percentage of 31.2% in the 75-250' <br />zone where hardcover is normally limited to 25%. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of <br />Orono, Minnesota: <br />FINDINGS <br />1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1649. <br />2. The property is located in the LR-1C Single Family <br />Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. <br />3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application <br />on June 17, 1991, and recommended approval of the proposed <br />variances based upon the following findings: <br />A) There is no garage currently existing on the <br />property. The property is triangular shaped, coming to <br />a point at the rear of the lot. Existing retaining <br />walls, topography, and the angle of the lot lines in <br />relation to the house, provide sufficient hardship to <br />justify granting of a side setback variance. <br />B) Granting of the side setback variance will have no <br />significant impact on neighboring properties. <br />Page 1 of 5 <br />
