The water retention area at 900 s.f. or 2.2% was not <br />considered hardcover at that time. <br />B. The proposed improvement will not result m additional excesses of <br />hardcover. <br />C. Applicants' residence is located approximately 150' from the lake. There <br />is an extensive grassed gentled sloped yard extending lakeward from the <br />residence. <br />D. No other variances are required for this improvement. <br />4. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar <br />to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that <br />granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor <br />pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely <br />serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a <br />demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial <br />property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and <br />intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br />5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br />recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments <br />by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety <br />and welfare of the community. <br />CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br />Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br />grants a variance to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivision 2 to permit construction <br />of a 20'x20' lake side addition resulting in an excess of 870 s.f. or 2.18% hardcover variance, <br />subject to the following conditions: <br />Page 2 of 6
