MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 24,1997 • ( #4 - #2305 Roger and Elizabeth Olsen - Continued) The applicant had no additional comments. Jabbour asked if any of the hardcover resulted from replacement of non - structural hardcover with structural hardcover. Van Zomeren explained what currently exists and is proposed. She indicated the plan is reduced from the original proposal by removal of a dog run and balcony on the lake side. Van Zomeren said additional structure will occur. Jabbour explained the issue of concern. He noted that applications have been reviewed where illegally non - conforming hardcover is approved as part of an application becoming legally non - conforming hardcover and resulting in more permanent structure on properties. Jabbour said when the non - conforming hardcover is reviewed, the Planning Commission assumes it has been placed their legally through the permit process but has been added since the original application for construction on the property was made. The City has not verified if the property has changed since the last application and the hardcover is used for trading for additional structure. Kathryn Alexander, the architect, said the property is the same as existed when the original permits were issued. • Jabbour said his point referred to other situations. Peterson expressed her surprise that the residence was able to be built originally. Jabbour indicated that it was approved just prior to the current zoning ordinances.
