�°�o �I�'Y QF QRO�N� RESOLUTION OF THE CIT'Y COUNCIL � � � � `� G No. � dQ � I�kE S H�� 4. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this Property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting approval of revisions to the site plan previously approved for variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the Applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a practical difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the Applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a revision to the site plan approved via Resolution No. 6407 in order to allow replacement of the pre-existing block retaining walls along Crystal Bay Road with boulder walls, all of which will be less than 4 feet in height; and to allow re-orientation of the approved parking stall to be parallel to Crystal Bay Road rather than perpendicular to it, such stall to be approximately 24 feet in width and 7-10' deep, in the location of the existing driveway and slightly west of it; and to allow reconfiguration of the front walkway and steps; all subject to the following conditions: 1. Council approval is based on the revised site plan survey submitted by the Applicants and annotated by City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A, Any amendments to the revised site plan which are not in conformity with City codes will require further Planning Commission and City Council review. 2. Applicants shall obtain a separate building permit for construction of the boulder walls prior to commencement of construction. 3. Under the revised site plan, Condition 4 of Resolution No. 6407 requiring a fence or other positive safety barriers shall be placed above the retaining walls that surround the lower parking area, is no longer required. 4. All other conditions of Resolution No. 6407 shall remain in full force and effect. 5.
