The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on June 6, <br /> 1988, and recommended approval of the proposed variances based upon <br /> the following findings: <br /> A) No lot width variance is required since the 125' lot width <br /> meets 80$ or more of the 140' requirement. <br /> :B) .� A number of inethods can be used in determining the actual <br /> percentages of hardcover on the property: <br /> 1) Based on crediting only the land at the building site, <br /> � the 0-75' hardcover proposed is 2,960 square feet or 15.8$ <br /> and in the 75-250' zone is 3,380 square feet or 30.0$. <br /> 2 ) Based on also crediting the northersy portions of the <br /> property for the hardcover calculations, 0-75' hardcover is <br /> 2,960 square feet or 10.5$ and in the 75-250' zone is 3,380 <br /> • square feet or 10.2.$. . <br /> 3) Based on calculating 0-75' and 75-190' from the lagoon, <br /> only crediting the building site, and with drainage all <br /> • ' directed to the lagoon, 0-75' lagoon setback hardcover is <br /> ' 14.9� (al 1 existing driveway), in the 75-190' lagoon setback <br /> � is 34.4$, and in the lakeshore 0-50' setback is 0�. <br /> � C) Applicant should not be penalized for the existing ,driveway <br /> � hardcover in the lagoon 0-75' zone, and in fact his driveway <br />:; proposal minimizes the additional driveway hardcover required. <br />_� <br />'I D) The neighbors' request for the lakeshore setback and average <br /> � setback variances to allow for the least disruptive sightlines, <br /> � to maintain uniformity, and the capability to direct all drainage <br /> over 100' of relatively f lat lawn area, justify the granting of a <br />;i • variance to the lakeshore setback. <br /> � E) The unique characteristics of the property i.e. the proposed <br /> _� building site separated from the rest of the property by a <br /> � lagoon, constitute a valid hardship to the property. <br /> F) The variances can be granted without permanent crediting of <br /> lot area north of the lagoon.
