This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1567 . <br /> 2. The property is located in the LR-1C Single Family <br /> Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. <br /> 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application <br /> on July 16, 1990, and recommended approval of the proposed <br /> variances based upon the following findings: <br /> A) Existing hardcover in the 75-250' zone is 41.8%. <br /> There are areas of existing landscape bed hardcover <br /> that can be removed, to result in no net increase of <br /> hardcover in the 75-250 ' zone. <br /> B) The 13' encroachment into the average lakeshore <br /> setback zone by the proposed deck will have no <br /> significant impact on the lake views enjoyed by <br /> neighboring property owners, due to the angle of the <br /> deck and relationship of the adjacent houses, and due <br /> to topography at the site. <br /> Page 1 of 4 <br />
