MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLA."NNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 21, 1995 (#5 -#2042 Thomas Frank -Continued) Mabusth reported that the property is a lakeshore lot on a natural environment OHW, French Creek Lake. There are no improvements within the 75' setback. A structural on a OHW requires a 150' setback. There are some hardcover improvements at 75'. The proposal requires an average lakeshore setback variance. The house is within the 50' street setback. The proposed deck requires a setback variance. The deck exists at 137' and is proposed at 13 l '. The proposal requires a 3' average lakeshore setback variance. Peterson read into the minutes a letter from the DNR, which recommends the proposal, with two conditions. They ask for screening and relocation of the deck to another area of the home. Peterson did not see where the deck could be repositioned. Mabusth said the setting is very natural and no visual screening is needed. It was determined that the DNR had not been on site in reviewing the proposal. Schroeder asked if the deck could be smaller. Mrs. Frank said, although it could be a little smaller, the steps for the deck allow access to the driveway, and the deck only extends 6' from the house. Mr. Frank said the hardcover is within the 25% allowable at 19.14% and ask for approval as proposed. Mabusth asked the Commissioners if they would give approval for structure within the street setback. Lindquist and Peterson saw no problem. Mabusth will contact M.r Richter oftheDNR There were no public comments. Schroeder moved, Lindquist seconded, to approve Application #2042 to extend the deck base<l on the lack of another area in which to relocate the deck and the proposal having no impact on its surroundings.
