ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2001 11. #2651 Robin and Jeremy Bupp, 2696 Caroline Avenue-Variances-Continued Mayor Peterson stated she did not see a hardship to allow the extra driveway and the patio. After some discussion, Council agreed that the Bupps should be allowed the 3 by 8 foot landing for stairs down from the sliding glass door for safety purposes. Anne Wilbur of 1410 Cherry Drive asked if the retaining walls could be removed to gain hardcover. They could not be removed. Lorrie Rejzer of2715 Caroline Avenue stated that she felt the Council was indulging the applicants after-the-fact, and that the lot was overbuilt. Flint stated that the Council believed the error was on the part of the surveyor and was not fraudulent. The Council was trying to be fair in resolving a tough issue. White stated that the Bupps would be denied their request and only granted a landing for some stairs so they could use their door. He hoped that the neighbors would move on and try to be friendly with the Bupps .. Sansevere indicated he could not approve the variance because he did not see a hardship. Nygard agreed. Flint moved, and Mayor Peterson seconded, to allow a 3 foot by 8 foot landing with stairs from the existing door for safety purposes that would be behind the average lakeshore setback, and to deny the request to increase the size of the driveway.
