This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1585. <br />2. The property is located in the LR-lB Lakeshore <br />Residential Zoning District. <br />3. On September 17, 1990, the Orono Planning Commission <br />reviewed the application as proposed and recommended <br />approval based on the following findings: <br />A) The seawall extends 52' along the bank of the <br />channel. The wall is approximately 41, 2' remains <br />below the lakebed and 2' extends above the lakebed. <br />B) Severe erosion of the channel bank required some <br />form of physical support to sustain the bank. <br />C) The 2' high wall that extends above the lake bed <br />provides no visual or negative aesthetic impact upon <br />viewing the property from the lakeside. <br />D) In a letter from Lloyd E. Weisert, a licensed <br />engineer, dated January 31, 1990, he notes the <br />following: "it is my opinion that the seawall will <br />structurally withstand the earth pressures and <br />environmental elements for the expected life of the <br />wall materials themselves". <br />Page 1 of 4 <br />
