City of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 2398 D) The location of the neighbur's house is at the east side property line. The garage in its proposed location will lessen the impact on the neighbor to the east. E) Moving the garage further north provides the much needed turning around area between the t ouse and garage to lessen the hazards of backing out onto the public roadway, and decreases the element of hazard. F) There is no visual impact along the County road because of the mature dense screening that exists along the roadway and the garage will be installed so as not to destruy the existing screening. 4. The City Council has considered this application in-luding the findings and recommendationE of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the comnunity. 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demon- strable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. COLICLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance per Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.03, Subdivision 9 (C) and Section 10.24 Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the construe-tion of an accessory structure by 86 square feet and located -ip& feet from the right-of-way line of North Shore Drive, subject to the fo1low inc, conditions: 1.
