The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br /> recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments <br /> by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety <br /> and welfare of the community. <br /> CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br /> Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br /> grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.28, Subdivision 5 for construction of <br /> an addition to allow a side yard variance along the west propety line reducing the exisitng 31' <br /> yard to 16.4' where 30' is required; a front yard variance to allow the addition to also be <br /> located 41' from the front property line where 50' is required; and per Section 10.22, <br /> Subdivision 2 a hardcover variance in the 75-250' setback which increases hardcover from <br /> 3,827 sq. ft.
