�1,i . I O� • O O �b- � CITY of ORONO � � � ti �� G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL. . � ��k'ESH��`'�' NO. � `7 � � F. While the second story addition and additions to the north side of the house are substantially within the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone, those additions will not create any new rooms or walls closer to the lake than the footprint of the existing house, and the proposed plans yield a residence with a two story facade on the lake side and a one story facade on the street side, thus limiting the visual impact of the addition in the ' 0-75' zone. G. While a small portion of the property is defined as bluff and work is proposed in the bluff impact zone, the visual impact of such work will � not be substantially different from the existing visual impact, and grading, drainage and erosion controls must be addressed suitably-before the City will issue building permits. • H. Because the property will potentially be provided with municipal sewer within one to two years, it is reasonable to allow conversion of the existing non-conforming septic system to a holding tank system subject to a pumping contract being provided to the City. Further, the fact that there is a suitable drainfield site that could accommodate primary and alternate drainfield systems for a two bedroom home, suggests that the residence should not increase above the level of two bedrooms until such time that municipal sewer is available to the property. A covenant with � such a restriction, and design revisions to eliminate a closet in the den � and remove the south wall of the den if not a bearing wall, are reasonable conditions to protect the City and the future property owners should sewer not be provided to the property. I. Existing hardcover in the 0-75' zone is 1,195 s.f. or 6.79%. The proposed 10 s.f. reduction to 1,185 s.f. in the 0-75' zone, coupled with an increase in 75-250' zone hardcover from 887 s.f. to 1,467 s.f. results in a total hardcover on the properly of 2,652 s.f. This is less than the 25% hardcover allowance for the property in the 75-250' zone of 2,724 s.f., hence while a portion of the hardcover is in the 0-75' zone, overall . hardcover on the property will remain at a justifiable level. • Page 3 of 9 �
