[1. �y. � :'., <br /> �_ <br /> allow all adjacent homes in the immediate neighborhood to be in line,this would set <br /> a negative precedent whereby other neighboring homes miaht be expected to be <br /> rebuilt in line at an even lesser setback to the lake, which is inconsistent with the <br /> goals and intent of the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> 7. Allowing a �0' setback rather than requiring a 7S setback is justified because of <br /> drainage problems existing in the neighborhood which would be eYacerbated by <br /> placing the applicants home at that setback, and which would place the home in <br /> jeopardy. <br /> 8. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this properiy 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 traffic conditions, light, air, nor pose a fire <br /> hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a <br /> convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship <br /> or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; <br /> and �vould be in keeping �vith the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and <br /> Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br /> 9. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br /> recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City Staff, comments by <br /> the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and <br /> welfare of the communitv. <br /> CONCLUSIONS, ORDER, AND CONDITIONS <br /> Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants <br /> variances to Nlunicipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivision 1 to allow the principal residence <br /> to be located�0'from the shoreline�vhere a 7S setback is required;Section 10.22,Subdivision 2 and <br /> Section 10.�6, Subdivision 16(L)(1)to allow 772 s.£(20.4%)of hardcover in the 0-75' setback area <br /> ��-here 0 s.f.
