Assistant Zoning Administrator <br />Gaffron noted that this is an after -the -fact variance for a <br />deck and storage shed that were placed within the 0-75' <br />lakeshore setback zone. Gaffron noted that the applicant <br />did complete his automatic variance forms and returned them <br />to the City for processing. Gaffron explained that the <br />application was held up because of the violation. <br />Mayor Butler moved, Councilmember T. Adams seconded, to <br />approve the after -the -fact variance based on the following <br />findings: <br />1. Steep slopes and the uneven, sometimes slippery <br />shoreline terrace make access to the property difficult <br />if not hazardous. <br />2. The lake access is the only viable access to the <br />property, and in this case the decking appears <br />reasonable to provide a safe access. <br />3. The 7' x 8' storage building acts as a lock box for storage <br />of boating incidentals (paddles, lifejackets, etc) <br />which reasonably should not have to be carried up the <br />hill after each use. <br />Before the motion was voted upon, Council continued <br />discussion. <br />Councilmember Frahm felt that the deck was acceptable but <br />that the storage shed should not be allowed just to serve as a <br />convenience so the applicant doesn't have to carry <br />incidentals. Frahm noted that everyone else on Big Island <br />or the lakeshore areas in Orono will want to have a shed like <br />this one. Frahm felt that this would be precedent setting to <br />allow the shed to remain within the 0-75' setback. <br />
