CITY OF ORONO <br />RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />NO. <br />10) The granting of the proposed variance will be contrary to the intent of this chapter which <br />prohibits structure and hardcover within 75 feet of lakes. <br />11) Because there are alternate locations to construct a pool which meets setbacks, the <br />granting of such variance will merely serve as a convenience to the Applicants. <br />12) The Applicants' request to construct an in -ground pool within the 75 -foot lake setback will <br />alter the essential character of the neighborhood. <br />13) The Applicants' proposal to construct an in -ground pool within 75 feet of the lake will limit <br />the stormwater infiltration opportunities with 75 feet of the lake and will result in negative <br />impact on the lake and on adjacent properties. <br />14)The Applicants' request to construct an in -ground pool is not is in harmony with the <br />purpose and intent of the ordinance. <br />WHEREAS, the City Council considered this application at two meetings on <br />June 8 and June 22, 2014 including the findings and recommendations of the Planning <br />Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the Applicants and the public, and the effect <br />of the proposed variances on the health, safety and welfare of the community as well as the <br />impact on properties in the vicinity; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council on June 22, 2015 made the following additional <br />findings with regard to the application: <br />CITY COUNCIL FINDINGS <br />1) This application was reviewed as Zoning File #15-3738. <br />2) The Property is located in the LR -1A zoning district, where 2.0 acres is the minimum lot <br />area and 200 feet is the minimum lot width. The Property has approximately 258,818 <br />square feet (5.94 acres) in area and has over 680 feet in width at the OHWL and over <br />700 feet at the 100 foot setback. <br />3) The Property is located in Tier 1 of Orono's Stormwater Quality Overlay District and is <br />limited to 25% hardcover based on gross lot area. <br />4) The lake setback and average lakeshore setback variances to allow construction of the <br />additions and modifications to the existing footprint of the home within the 100 -foot lake <br />setback and within the average lakeshore setback will alleviate a practical difficulty <br />inherent to the location and orientation of the home on the Property and was not created <br />by the Applicants. <br />Page 3 of 6 <br />
