which Orono would have disallowed as buildable in the past. The new Statute provisions were <br /> incorporated as Zoning Code Section 78-72(c)(1-7) in March 2012. <br /> � The new Sta.tute provisions are applicable just to Shoreland properties (within 1000' of a lake or <br /> 300' of a protected tributary). In many instances the Statute language will allow(i.e.require) <br /> . buildability by administrative approval for lots that do not meet the provisions of 78-72(b). In <br /> such situations,the Statute provisions override the older City Code provisions. <br /> The Statutes apply different standards for 1) nonconforming single lots of record (i.e. an <br /> individual tax parcel with no abutting lots owned by the same person) as compared to 2) groups <br /> of 2 or more nonconforming contiguous lots of record under common ownership (i.e. 2 or <br /> more abutting tax parcels owned by the same person). The basic difference is: <br /> � 1) There is no minimum area requirement for a nonconforming single lot of record. <br /> 2) In a group of commonly owned lots, each lot must meet minimum area and width <br /> requirements based on 66% the Shoreland Standards 6120.3300 Subp. 2a in order to <br /> be deemed buildable. � <br /> C. State Shoreland Riiles, Section 6120.3300, Subp. 2a <br /> � The State Shoreland Rules include a table of required lot area and lot width standards, based on 4 <br /> distinct parameters: � <br /> 1) Lake class: Natural Environment,Recreational Development,or General Development <br /> 2) Sewer availability: Sewered or Not Sewered <br /> 3) Riparian staius: Riparian or Non-Riparian <br /> 4) Type of dwelling: Single,Duplex,Triplex, or Quad <br /> Once we know these four parameters for a parcel,we can enter the table and find the Lot area or <br /> Lot width requirement; multiply the area or width by 66% and compare that result with the actual <br /> lot area and width to see if the minimum standard is met. <br /> E;� :�f;;; <br />
