The property is 2.2 acres in area and has 220' of width. The property abuts a <br /> private road outlot legally described as Outlot C, Trees To Be. <br /> b. Although underlain with City road easements, Outlot C is currently and <br /> indefinitely not used as a traveled road, has not been developed for road <br /> purposes, and is heavily vegetated. <br /> c. The location of the septic inound site and septic tank limit the areas of <br /> expansion for the applicants' home. <br /> d. The applicants revised their initial request so that all proposed additions will <br /> meet a 40' side street setback from Outlot C and removed the detached <br /> accessory building from the proposal, thus eliminating one of the variances <br /> requested. <br /> e. The property has a dense cover of trees, hiding the proposed additions from <br /> . both Outlot C and from Rainey Road. <br /> 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to <br /> it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting <br /> the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire <br /> hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a <br /> convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable <br /> hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the <br /> applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code <br /> and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br /> CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br /> Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a <br /> variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-420 Subdivision B to allow construction <br /> of home additions to be located at a 40' setback from Outlot C where a 50' setback is normally <br /> required, subject to the following conditions: <br /> 1. Council approval is based on the site plan submitted by the applicants and annotated by <br /> City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A.
