The channel is heavily trafficked both in the summer by boaters and the <br /> winter by snowmobilers. � <br /> C. Many private properties along the channel within the Ciry of Orono have <br /> similar privacy fencing. <br /> D. Elimination of the fence could potentially result in the reduction of the <br /> value of the property. <br /> E. The property is located directed across from the Tonka Bay Fishing Park <br /> where the public is allowed to fish. Fencing helps to define the private <br /> property along the channel from the public �shing areas. <br /> F. The fence provides a noise protection and visual protection from the <br /> public who fish in the park. The park is heavily used and crowded with <br /> • people fishing throughout the entire summer. <br /> G. The majoriry of the area of this property is located within the lakeshore <br /> protected area where no structures are allowed. The total area of the <br /> property is 39,000 s.f. The area within the 0-75' setback area is 29,500 <br /> s.f. <br /> H. The property is sunounded by the lake on the north and the east and by <br /> the County road on the south. Orono Code would have allowed a privacy <br /> fence within the street yard of the property as it is adjacent to heavily <br /> trafficked County road but code would not allow such a structure within <br /> the 0-75' setback area. <br /> 4. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar <br /> � to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that <br /> granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor <br /> pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely <br /> serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a <br /> demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property <br /> right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the <br /> � Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br /> • Page 2 of 5 <br /> � Fwm SOUS Disk Ororo <br />
