To: Mayor Butler Mark E. Bernhardson, City Administrator Orono Council Members From: Michael P. Gaffron, Assistant Planning & Zoning Administrator Date: October 1, 1986 Subject: #1072 Fred Winston, 765 Spring Hill Road - Variance - Resolution List of Exhibits GCT 13 19'8n Exhibit A - Memo and Exhibits of 9/10/86 Exhibit B - Planning Commission Minutes of 9/15/86 Exhibit C - Wildman Letter of 9/15/86 Exhibit D - Proposed Resolution of Approval This is a request for a property line setback variance to construct an addition to an existing horse barn. The addition is to the side of the barn away from the affected lot lines. The only affected neighbor, Mr. Wildman, has submitted a letter of approval of the project. After the Planning Commission review of this application, the fact came to light that although the barn itself is in the RR-lB zone, most of the pasture acreage credited is in the LR-lA and requires a conditional use permit for the keeping of horses per Section 10.20, Subdivision 3 (K). This does not change any facts, and staff recommends approval of a conditional use permit concurrently with the variance approval, subject to a limitation on the maximum number of horses, to be regulated by additional conditional use permit review if the current barn and addition is ever proposed to be expanded to house more than the 6-8 horse capability now. Please review the memo and exhibits of 9/10/86. Planning Commission on 9/15/86 recommended variance approval, 6-0. A resolution reflecting the Planning Commission recommendation and incorporating the conditional use permit approval is attached for your review.
