a <br /> � O� . <br /> • O O ' . <br /> ��b. - CITY of ORONO <br /> � � F <br /> �� G'� � RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br /> ��k'ESK04�' � � � NO. 4�� ?�•:��. - . <br /> 3. The proposed plat consists of three residential lots each meeting the minimum <br /> lot standard requirements of the RR-lA, Single Family Rural Residential Zoning � <br /> District, except as follows: <br /> A. Lot 1 contains approximately 4.8 acres of dry buildable land and 17.5 <br /> acres of wetland. No additional adjacent land is available for purchase, <br /> and the only additional land available to the subdividers is within <br /> the property but separated from Lot 1 by County Road 6. <br /> B. Lot 1 does not meet the defined minimum 300' lot width requirement as <br /> measured at the rear line of the defined front yard. Lot 1 has a defined <br /> lot width of approximately 280'. No additional adjacent land is available <br /> to increase the lot width to a conforming status. <br /> . The granting of lot area and width variances for Lot 1 is justified by the fact <br /> � • � that Lot 1 contains an existing residence and accessory building meeting <br /> all required lot line setbacks without the need for further variances, that Lot 1 <br /> � contains the necessary primary and alternate drainfield sites to support septic <br /> system needs, and the fact that the only additional lands available for inclusion <br /> with Lot 1 are across County Road 6. The Council notes further that the <br /> granting of a lot area variance for a new subdivision in Orono is highly unusual <br /> and in this case only justified by the unique geographic relationship between the <br /> existing underlying tax parcel and the County and City roadways which have , <br /> been developed within it over many years. <br /> 4. Lot 3 is a 'through' lot subject to conditional use pernut for placement of any <br /> accessory structures. <br /> �� 5: All lots have been found to have adequate�and suitable soils for on-site septic <br /> treatment facilities providing both a primary and alternate site for each of the <br /> three lots. <br /> 6. Lot 1 has a nonconforming septic system which under current City code must <br /> be replaced by December 31, 2007. <br /> • Page 2 of 7 <br />
