3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on September 17,
2001 and on a vote of 7 to 0 recommended approval of the proposed variances
based upon the following findings:
A. The structural coverage on the lot is increasing to 2,230.8 s.f. (4.9%) but
still well below the allowed 15%. .
� B. The existing residence was built in its present location, prior to current
zoning ardinances. �
C. The adjacent properties are not affected by the roof extension.
4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and
recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments
by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety
• and welfare of the community.
5. 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 variances 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 applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a
demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial
property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and
intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS
Based upon the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants after-the-
fact variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.27, Subdivision 5(B) to allow a side yard
setback of 47' where 50' is required and a front yard setback of 35.5' where 100' is required
to permit construction of a 3' roof overhang above the front entrance, subject to the following
conditions: .
