The Orono Plaruling Commission reviewed this application on August 18, 1997 <br /> and recommended approval on a vote of 4 to 3. <br /> 4. The Planning Commission made the following findings of fact: <br /> A. The lot is an existing lot of record. <br /> B. The lot is 12,754.5 sq. ft. or .29 acres. It does not meet the minimum <br /> lot area requirements of the LR-1C district. <br /> C. This is an unusual shaped parcel as it is situated in relation to Shoreline <br /> Drive and Dunwoody Avenue and Lake Minnetonka. <br /> D. The amount of hardcover for the long driveway and turnaround are due <br /> to the access being provided from Dunwoody Avenue and the need for <br /> safe ingress/egress. <br /> 4. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar <br /> to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that <br /> granting the variances would not adversely affect tra�c conditions, light, air nor <br /> pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely <br /> serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a <br /> demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial <br /> property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and <br /> intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br /> 5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br /> recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments <br /> by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety <br /> and welfare of the community. <br /> Page 2 of 7 <br />
