� Y , � <br /> vy . . . <br /> - City of ORONO <br /> • RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br /> � . <br /> � NO. 2409 <br /> • ' • • <br /> A) Recommended denial of a variance to Section 10.25 , <br /> Subdivision 6B for attached garage side setback, finding that the <br /> requested variance if approved would exacerbate an existing <br /> substandard setback situation that already has an existing <br /> negative impact on the neighboring affected property. <br /> B) Recommended approval of the proposed hardcover increase of <br /> 43 s.f. in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone, resulting in a 0-75' <br /> hardcover increase from 7.2$ to 7.6�. The Planning Commission <br /> found that hardcover in the 75-250' and 250-500' set back zones <br /> conforms with the allowable hardcover percentages. <br /> C) Recommended approval of variances to allow encroachment into <br /> the 75' lakeshore setback zone, finding that the existing <br /> residental structure ranges in distance from 61' to 71' from the <br /> shoreline, and the proposed addition would extend from the 71' <br /> setback point to a point approximately 76' from the shoreline, <br /> resulting in 43 s.f. of additional structure within the 0-75' <br /> • setback zone. <br /> D) Recommended approval of excavation, structure and grading <br />. within the 931.5' Flood� Fringe area, finding that the proposed <br /> ' encroachment will not create added danger to life or property due <br /> to increased f lood heights or velocities, the proposal does not <br /> increase any hazards to water supply or sanitation systems, and <br /> the proposal has taken into consideration all factors of Orono <br /> Code Section 10.55, Subdivision 12D. Such approval would be <br /> conditioned on the crawl space floor elevation being maintained <br /> at elevation 931.5 ' , and that proper erosion controls be <br /> maintained during such period that the area is disturbed. <br /> 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this <br /> property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other <br /> property in this zoning district; that granting the variances would <br /> not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air, nor pose a fire <br /> hazard or danger to neighboring properties; would not merely serve as <br /> a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a <br /> demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a <br /> substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping <br /> with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan <br /> of the City. <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br /> • <br />
