The City finds the flume to be irieffective in combating the drainage and erosion problems of the steep lake- shore banks. The paved trough permits sediment laden runoff to run down the bank at a great velocity eroding the natural ground cover between the flume and the lakeshore rather than permitting the drainage to fan or disperse at the top of the bank and run over natural ground cover. 14.. During the review process, the applicant was advised of other more environmentaly acceptable measures that could be employed to remedy the existing erosion and drainage � problems on his property as follows : �� a) fill and regrade affected portions of driveway so to raise the level of driveway so that manhole in 'street is lower. � b) redirect roof drainage - specifically the down spout that drains out to driveway. This may not be necessary if regrading the driveway will now direct the drainage away from the lakeshore banks. c) installation of ground cover over the entire disturbed area at the top of the lakeshore banks to assist in filtering the sediment and decrease velocity of flow. 15. To approve a conditional use permit for the flume would require that the City approve the following variances and or amend sections of the Orono Zoning Code arid Communitv Management Plan: a) variance to section 34. 201 for construction of a structure within 75 ' of the lakeshore. b) variance to section 34. 202 violation of hardcover regulations. • c) variance to section 31 . 831 for erection of a structure within 75 ' of the shoreline.
