CITY OF ORONO <br />RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />NO. <br />(7) The proposed use is consistent with the character of the surrounding area, <br />unless a change of character is called for in the community management <br />plan. The wall as constructed is residential in nature and is consistent <br />with similar features in the surrounding lakeshore neighborhood. <br />(S) The proposed use is compatible with the character of buildings and site <br />improvements in the surrounding area, unless a change of character is called <br />for in the community management plan. The wall as constructed is <br />residential in nature and is consistent with similar features in the <br />surrounding lakeshore neighborhood <br />(9) The proposed use is not expected to substantially impair the use and <br />enjoyment of the property in the area or have a materially adverse impact on <br />the property values in the area when compared to the impairment or impact <br />of generally permitted uses. The wall as constructed is expected to have no <br />detrimental impacts to the neighborhood and is not expected to affect <br />property values. <br />(10) The proposed use will be provided with screening and buffering adequate to <br />mitigate undesirable views and activities likely to disturb surrounding uses. <br />The location, orientation and design of the wall as constructed is such that <br />no screening or buffering will be required. <br />(11) The proposed use will not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, <br />glare, vibration, odors, fumes, dust, electrical interference, general <br />unsightliness, or other means. The wall as constructed is not unsightly and <br />is not expected to cause any of these undesirable impacts <br />(12) The proposed use will not cause excessive non-residential traffic on <br />residential streets, parking needs that cause a demonstrable inconvenience to <br />adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or unsafe access. The proposed use <br />will not generate any of these undesirable impacts. <br />(13) The proposed use is designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and <br />historic features of the area and to minimize environmental impact. The <br />residential character of the wall as constructed blends well with the <br />neighborhood, and is expected to have no detrimental environmental <br />impacts. <br />Page 4 of 7 <br />
