7 � <br /> Highmark <br /> Builders Inc. <br /> hardcover percentage would not decrease drastically,because of a required <br /> parking/driveway up to the house, as is the existing condition with a 35.7% <br /> hardcover. <br /> Moving the home into the 250' to 500' zone would meet all of the official <br /> controls in regards to hardcover,but the majority of the views will be blocked � <br /> by the Iocation of the home at 4209 North Shore Drive. By moving our home <br /> behind the easement, the adjacent 4209 home would then be approximately <br /> 20' beyond the hypothetical setback line between our home and 4215 North <br /> Shore Drive. Also this would move our lakeshore setback distance from 149' <br /> to approximately 247'. The attached pictures and sketch(2) show how the <br /> view would be affected. <br /> If we where to reduce the size of the home to meet the 25%requirement our <br /> house foundation size would be approximately 950 to 980 sf. We believe that <br /> a foundation size of roughly 980 sf is unreasonable even though the Orono <br /> minimum garage and house requirement of 1500 sf would be met. A new <br /> home in this location with a foundation of 980 sf is not desirable or <br /> acceptable. <br /> If we where to remodel the existing home we would be 10% over the <br /> hardcover at 35.8%. The views from the adjacent property at 4209 North <br /> � Shore Drive will be obstructed and the structure would sit further beyond the <br /> lake shore set back line. We feel this would be the least desirable option for <br /> everyone. <br /> If the utility easement was not in its current location, we would be able to <br /> ' design a home that would meet the hardcover requirements. The garage would <br /> move closer to the 250' setback line, which would eliminate additional <br /> driveway coverage,the home would become elongated and narrower, the 25% <br /> hardcover requirement would met. <br /> Once the setback line and the utility easement are factored into the 75'-250' <br /> area we are left with a usable gross building pad area of 4,317 sf of the 12,375 <br /> sf located in the 75'-250' zone. Of the tota122,726 sf buildable area(75' to <br /> 500' zone) on the lot, we can only use 18%of the lot to fit the home. With <br /> 100% of the home located within the 75' to 250' zone.The intended <br /> � �� hardcover of approximately 29.9 % in the 75' to 250' zone is a decrease from . - _ <br /> the existing hardcover of 35.8%.
