CITY of ORONO <br />RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />NO. --S-5~2......,f1-·' - <br />6. The City Council finds that there is insufficient justification to allow the <br />granting of a side setback variance, and the granting of such a variance <br />would merely serve as a convenience to the applicant and would not be in <br />keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive <br />Plan. <br />CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br />Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br />denies a side setback variance for a 4' structure encroachment of the required 50' side <br />setback; and grants a· lot area variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-568 <br />to allow construction of a seasonal cabin on an existing vacant lot consisting of 3. 3 3 acres <br />of total lot area where approximately · 1.1 acres of dry buildable area exists and where 5 <br />acres of dry buildable area is normally required, subject to the following conditions: <br />1. Council approval is based on the site plan submitted by the applicant and <br />annotated by City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A. Any <br />amendments to the site plan which are not in conformity with City codes will <br />require further Planning Commission and City Council review. <br />2. All setbacks, hardcover, structural coverage, and septic requirements and setbacks <br />must be met. No variances other than lot area shall be granted for construction on <br />this lot. <br />3. This resolution shall also act as a covenant preventing a structure larger than 3- <br />bedrooms. In signing this resolution, the applicant agrees to limit the structure to <br />3-bedrooms in order to comply with the 3-bedroom capacity septic sites available <br />on the lot. The applicant also agrees to preserve the primary and alternate 3- <br />bedroom septic sites and prevent them from destruction either during construction <br />of the cabin or future development on the lot. <br />4. Authorities granted by this resolution run with the prope1iy not with the <br />applicants, but are permissive only and must be exercised by obtaining a building <br />pennit for the new construction within one year of the date of Council approval, <br />or the variance will expire on that date (October 23, 2007). <br />Page 3 of 5
