The Orono Plannuig Commission reviewed this application on June 17, 1996 and <br /> recommended approval of the proposed variances on a vote of 7 to 0 based upon <br /> the following findings: <br /> A. Since all proposed additions meet the 50' street setback, no street setback <br /> variance is required. <br /> B. The location of the proposed additions to the east of the existing house <br /> and as near as 5' to the east side lot line is appropriate based on the <br /> following unique findings: <br /> 1. Additions of the same magnitude as those proposed could not be <br /> . located elsewhere on the property without encroaching the 50' <br /> required street setback or the 150' required lakeshore setback. <br /> • 2. While the property is approximately 1.5 acres in dry buildable <br /> area above of the OHWL of Lake Classen, the buildable envelope <br /> due to the required setbacks is only 1,800 s.f. <br /> 3. If additions were constructed to the southwest or south of the <br /> house, they would eliminate the existing flat back yard area, <br /> � resulting in a steep slope directly behind the house. Given the <br /> proximity of County Road 6, it would be appropriate to retain a <br /> usable yard on the south side of the house. <br /> 4. Topography is generally sloping towards the applicants' property, <br /> hence any additional drainage near the lot line caused by the <br /> proposed additions will only impact the applicants, not the <br /> neighboring property oumer. <br /> 5. The proposed proximity to the lot line may have a negative <br /> impact on existing screening beiween applicants' house and the <br /> neighboring house to the east, however the neighboring property <br /> o�vner has indicated this is not a concern. <br /> • Page 2 of 6 <br />
