, � -y, • � . �: � � Cit o� ORONO - �' • �'T RESOWTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � NO. 2828 • - • • While the proposed attachment will leave the garage only 9' from the neighbors existing detached garage which is also nonconforming in nature, the attachment leaves a setback from the neighboring residence structure of 14' , adequate for fire safety purposes. e) The majority of the lot is in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone, hence the hardship is that without a variance, applicant would not be able to locate a garage within the property boundaries. 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, � reports by City staff , comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. � 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply general ly to other property in this zoning district; that granting ��the variance 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 applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
