A building permit was issued to permit construction of a new residence on the <br /> property based on a site plan that was submitted with the original building permit <br /> application. A Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (T.C.O.)has been issued with <br /> the requirements all the site grading and drainage plans are completed within 180 <br /> days. <br /> 2. At the time the building permit was approved, the submitted site plan met all <br /> requirements of the zoning ordinances and building code. After additional review <br /> of the site plan it was discovered the 75' lakeshore setback was not measured <br /> correctly. The site plan indicated a 75' setback to the lakeshore (east side of the <br /> property). However, it was discovered the lakeshore bends around an adjacent <br /> property within 75'of this property. This resulted in more area of the property being <br /> included in the 0-75'protected zone where no hardcover is allowed. As a result,the <br /> area of the 75-250' zone is actually smaller than initially indicated, and the owners <br /> have had to omit certain items of hardcover to remain at the 25% leveL <br /> 3. When the setback issue was discovered, construction of the new home was nearly <br /> complete. Since the house was nearly complete,it w�as not possible for the property <br /> owners to reduce the size of the structure. To conform to the hardcover <br /> requirements,the property owners had to reduce the size of the driveway,and remove <br /> a concrete patio from the plans. Neither had been constructed. <br /> 4. Swales are being provided around the house to direct�vater from the road,driveway <br /> and roof around the house and beyond the adjacent homes where the water will then <br /> naturally flow towards the lakeshore. <br /> .5. . In addition to the drainage swales, gutters are being added to the northeast roof line <br /> to direct water towards the front of the house and not to�ti-ards the neighboring house. <br /> Draintile will also be installed to take the water from the house around to the front <br /> of the bank. Final grading and the draintile will not be completed until the grounci <br /> thaws in the Spring. Because the additional grading and drainage improvements <br /> cannot be completed until Spring,staff issued a T.C.O.rather than a final Certificate <br /> of Occupancy(C.O.). When the improvements are complete,a C.O.will be issued. <br /> The City of Orono has routinely allowed individuals to occupy a home by a T.C.O. <br /> without all the exterior work being complete subject to a defined time period to <br /> complete the work. <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br />
