(hereinafter "the applicant") is owner of the property located at 1040 Tonkawa Road within the City of Orono (hereinafter "City") and legally described as follows: � � � . Exhibit A attached (hereinafter "the property"); and WHEREAS, the applicant has applied to the City for a variance to Municipal Zoning Code Sections 10.22, Subdivisions 1 and 2; 10.55, Subdivision 8; and 10.56, Subdivision 16(L) to permit the construction of a new residence constituting hardcover in the 75-250' zone in excess of the 25% hardcover normally allowed in that zone. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono, Minnesota: FINDINGS 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2319. 2. The property is 1.85 acres in area and is located in the.LR-1B Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on January 20, 1998 and on a vote of 3-2 recommended approval of the proposed variance at a hardcover level of 30% in the 75-250' hardcover zone based upon the following findings: • Page 1 of 6 � 7 i • . � O� • • O O �b. - �ITY of 4RON0 � � �� G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL . . ��kESH�g'� NO. � O � � � � . a. The property currently contains a residence structure, driveways, etc. which constitute 39.4% pre-existing hardcover in the 75-250' zone, none � of which is fabric or plastic weed barrier. b. The lot is by definition 127' in width where 140' is normally required and therefore meets the "80% standard" for construction on an existing lot of record. The lot width is sufficient to allow construction of a single family residence which meets the required 75' lakeshore setback, required 10' side setbacks, and which will not encroach the average lakeshore setback. At 1.85 acres in area, the lot meets the 1.0 acre minimum lot area standard. c. Hardcover in the 75-250' zone under applicants revised proposal will " . � decrease from the pre-existing level of 39.4% to 30.0% where only 25% • is normally allowed. This level of hardcover is similar in magnitude to levels approved for other lots in the I,R-1B zone, although not necessarily for similarly sized lots in the immediate area. d. Adherence to the 25% limitation would not allow for construction of the residence as proposed unless the driveway or residence were either redesigned or reduced in size, which is not appropriate given the essential , character of the property and surrounding properties. Moving the proposed residence further from the lake to take advantage of the 250-500' hardcover zone allowance would result in grading into an existing slope and have potential adverse impacts on site•drainage. e. A hardcover reduction on this property from 39.4% to 30.0% is a positive " step in meeting the long term environmental goals of the City. , f. The only hardcover that will be located in the 0-75' zone is an existing 74 s.f. stairway to the lake. The residence will be constructed at a distance of 119' from the lake, more than meeting the 75' minimum setback requirement. � Page 2 of 6 1 • ' I O� • O O ��e. - C ITY of ORONO � � ti ��� �G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL . � �kESHOg' � NO. � O � � • . 4. The Council further fmds that a number of hardships to the property support the granting of this variance, including: a. The location of the wooded hill west of the proposed house site, which would be negatively impacted by relocation of the house site in order to meet hardcover requirements. . b. The long, narrow nature of the lot coupled with the City's hardcover ordinance with its hardcover zones, severely limits the ability to fully utilize all hardcover which this 1.85 acre parcel might otherwise be allowed. c. Re-use of the existing site building pad will reduce impact of the new construction. • d. The applicant has submitted a revised proposal that would result in a 75- 250' hardcover level of 29.78% which is a substantial reduction from the existing residence hardcover level. 5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 6. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor � pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to, preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. • Page 3 of 6 � o� � o 0 ��b� - CITY of ORONO � ' ti �� G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL . - . �`9kESH.�g'� . NO. � . �_� Ld. `� . CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon the above fmdings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance to Municipal Zoning Code Sections 10.22, Subdivisions 1 and 2; 10.55, Subdivision 8; and � 10.56, Subdivision 16(L) to permit the construction of a new residence constituting hardcover in the 75-250' zone of 29.78% as revised, subject to the following conditions: 1. The only hardcover allowed in the 0-75' zone will be the existing 74 s.f. stairway. Hardcover in the 75-250' zone shall not exceed 29.78% per the site plan and hardcover worksheet attached to this resolution as Exhibit B. Applicant is advised that hardcover on the property based on this approval will exceed the , normal limits, and any future proposal to increase hardcover on the property will likely not be approved, but might be approved only in conjunction with the concurrent removal of pre-existing hardcover, resulting in no increase or a net • decrease in hardcover on the property. 2. Applicant shall submit an acceptable site grading and drainage plan prior to issuance of the building permit. . 3. Authorities granted by this variance run with the property not with the applicants, but are permissive only and must be exercised by obtaining a building permit within one year of the date of Council approval, or this variance will expire on that date (January 26, 1999). 4. Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this resolution shall constitute a violation of the zoning code, shall automatically • terminate any authority granted herein, and shall be punishable as a � . misdemeanor. 5. The undersigned applicant has read, understood and hereby agrees to the terms of this resolution and on behalf of himself, his heirs, successors and assigns, hereby agrees to the recording of this resolution in the chain of title of the property. • Page 4 of 6 � O� � O O ��b. - �ITY of ORONO � � ti �� �'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �.
