5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br />recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the <br />applicants and the effect of the proposed variances on the health, safety and welfare of the <br />community. <br />The applicant has made a slight modification to the site plan that was considered by the Planning <br />Commission (6 to Oto approve), and the Council on September 28, 1998 (5 to Oto approve). <br />Upon review by members of the City of Orono Staff the following has been determined: <br />1. The revised plan, dated 10/20/98, has moved the residence further from the lake, less <br />impacting any views of the lake from adjacent properties. <br />2. The residence will be located 18' further from the west property line. <br />3. The pool terrace will be located 5' further from the east property line. <br />4. The applicant has indicted the hardcover and structural coverage are below the City's <br />allowable requirements. <br />5. No other variances were required for the original approval (September 28, 1998). The <br />revised site plan would not require variances. <br />6. The revised plan has removed a detached gazebo from the pool terrace that would be <br />located closer to the lake than the residence. The removal of this gazebo protects lake <br />views from the adjacent properties. <br />7. The revised plan is for a smaller residence that will be located further back on the lot less <br />impacting lakeshore views for adjacent residences. <br />A copy of this memorandum has been placed in the City address file and in Zoning file #2419.
