The Hannings are owners of real property described in Exhibit A,which property is located <br /> in the RR-1 A Single Family Rural Residential Zoning District requiring 5 dry buildable acres <br /> in each building site. <br /> 2. Hennepin County has acquired an easement for road purposes over the portion of the <br /> • property described in Exhibit B. <br /> � 3. Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.02.34 excludes the use of area dedicated as public <br /> right-of-way as credit towards lot area requirements. <br /> 4. The Property contained approximately 11.2 dry buildable acres prior to the right-of-way <br /> easement acquisition and contains appro�mately 10.8 dry buildable acres after the <br /> acquisition. <br /> 5. The impact of the easement makes creation of a regulazly shaped new building lot even more <br /> difficult than before the acquisition, due to the location of the existing residence on the <br /> properry. <br /> 6. The basis for creation of the 5-acre zoning district in 1974 was to retain the low-density rural <br /> character of northwest Orono. Allowing subdivision of the 11-acre property into two lots of <br /> approximately equal area will not be in conflict with the City's rural philosophy. � <br /> 7. Granting area credit for the area of the road easement w-ill allo�v a subdivision creating a new <br /> building lot that is less irregularly shaped than the lot that could be created absent such <br /> credit. � <br /> � Page 2 of 4 . <br />
