ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR JULY 21, 1997 <br />(#14 -#2265 Robert Lund for Graydon and Michelle Newman -Continued) <br />Smith asked why the residence would be located in front of the average lakeshore setback. She <br />was informed by Lund that there are a large number of trees on the property and the residence <br />will be built to line up with viewing the lake through the trees. <br />Schroeder asked how far forward the home would be. He was informed that the orientation of <br />the home would change but would be between 83' and 85' forward. It was noted that there is no <br />way to avoid encroaching into the average lakeshore setback. <br />Lindquist moved, McMillan seconded, to approve Application #2265. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0 <br />(Berg was absent during the vote). <br />(#15) #2266 RONALD AND ROBIN HOHRMAN <br />190 CYGNET PLACE <br />VARIANCES <br />PUBLIC HEARING 9:31-9:34 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The Applicant was present. <br />Van Zomeren reported that the request is for variances to the rear and side yard setbacks for <br />construction of a screen porch to the rear and a one stall addition to the garage to the east. The <br />lots in the area do not meet lot area requirements and create long narrow building pads. The 30' <br />side yard requirement is proposed at 28'. The 50' rear yard is proposed at 46'. Van Zomeren said <br />structural coverage is not an issue. There is a small front yard encroachment. Staff <br />recommended approval. <br />The applicant said the residence is located just barely into the setback and the proposal is the <br />only alternative for an addition. <br />There were no public comments. <br />McMillan asked if the neighboring properties were notified. Van Zomeren said they were. She <br />indicated she received one call and sent out information to that person. She received no <br />complaints. <br />Schroeder moved, Hawn seconded, to approve Application #2266. Smith asked if a new <br />driveway would be built for the garage addition. The applicant said it would be widened but a <br />pad is already located there. Vote: Ayes 6, Nays 0. <br />21
