This properiy is located in the LR-1 C Zoning District,where 1/2 acre is the minimum <br /> lot azea. The properiy consists of 4,901 s.f. <br /> 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on August 24,2000 and <br /> recommended approval by a vote of 6 to 0. <br /> 4. The Planning Cominission made the folIowing findings of fact: <br /> A. The property has been developed for many years. The property owners have <br /> stated the existing resideace is in need of major repairs and would prefer to <br /> construct a new house rather than remodel and add to the existing house. The <br /> variances are required due to the small size of the lot. The lot size is.11 acre <br /> in a '/� acre{.5)zoning district. <br /> B. The house�would meet the 10' side setback requirements. <br /> C. It is not possible to meet a reaz setback of 30' and maintain an adequate <br /> setbacl�to the lake or Crystal Bay Road. Proposed is an 8'setback to the reaz <br /> praperty line. <br /> D. The lot is oniy 4,901 s.f. which was platted and developed prior to the <br /> adoption of the zoning ordinance. Tt �r•ould not be possible to purchase <br /> additional land from the adjacent residential properties as they are similar in <br /> size to the subject lot. <br /> E. To establish an adequate setback to the lakeshore and Crystal Bay Road, an <br /> 8' setback to the rear property li�e is appropriate. The property to the rear is <br /> a 100'railroad right-of-way, not residential property. <br /> 5. The City Councii finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to <br /> it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting <br /> the variance would not adversely affect tr�c conditions, iight, air, nor pose a fue <br /> hazazd or other danger to neighboring property; wouId not merely serve as a <br /> convenience to the appficants,but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hazdship <br /> or difficuIty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br />
