RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
y� NO. 7045
`ikESHO
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota
hereby approves the requested variances as described above based on one or more of the
following findings of fact concerning the Property:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #LA19-000082. The analysis contained
within staff memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the
above mentioned meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings
are hereby incorporated by reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR-1C One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
3. The Property has lake shore on two sides.
4. The Property contains 0.31 acres in area and has a defined lot width of 77 feet measured
at the western 75 foot setback from the OHWL, and 78 feet at the western OHWL; and 75
feet measured at the 75 foot setback from the eastern OHWL and 63 feet at the eastern
OHWL.
5. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25% according to the Stormwater
Quality Overlay District.
6. Applicant has applied for the following variance[s]:
a. Rear Setback Variance
b. Side Setback Variance
c. Average Lakeshore Setback Variance
d. Lake Setback Variance
e. 75-foot Hardcover Variance
7. In considering this application for variances, the Council has considered the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed variances
upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic
conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values
of property in the surrounding area.
ANALYSIS:
1. "Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes
and intent of the ordinance . . . ."The proposed variances are in harmony with the purpose
of the Ordinance. The small lot includes difficulties in its double lake frontage, small size,

and width. The additions were designed to protect lake views for the neighbors and meant
to be within existing improved areas.
2. "Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the
comprehensive plan." The proposed variances to improve this nonconforming lot are
consistent with the comprehensive plan.
3. "Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are
practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. `Practical difficulties,' as used in
connection with the granting of a variance, means that:
a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner,
however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls.
The request to permit the additions to the home on the substandard lot, in the
proposed location within the setbacks, appears to be somewhat reasonable as the
Property's reduced size and orientation with respect to the dual frontage lakeshore,
Fagerness Point Road, and adjacent properties create difficulties. The hardcover
level and encroachments proposed within the average lake setback, side yard, street
yard, and lake yard appear to be reasonable.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created
by the landowner.
The uniquely small size, location with respect to the lake and roadway, and
required setbacks prevent a residential footprint consistent with the neighborhood.
The proposed hardcover level and setbacks are unique to the Property; and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality."
The variances are requested in order to permit construction of additions to the
home which are designed to fit the character of the neighborhood according to the
submitted information.
4. "Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties." Economic
considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. "Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight
for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as
defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter
78."This condition is not applicable.

6. "The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under
Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is
located." This condition is not applicable, as a residence and garage are allowed uses in
the LR-1C District.
7. "The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling
as a two-family dwelling."This condition is not applicable.
8. "The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such
property or immediately adjoining property." The Property's substandard size and
orientation with respect to the lakeshore, and adjacent properties creates difficulties which
also apply to many of the properties in the same neighborhood.
9. "The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the
land is located." The Property's substandard size, dual lakeshore frontage, topography,
Fagerness Point Road, and adjacent properties creates difficulties which also apply to
many of the properties in the same neighborhood.
10. "The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant."Granting the requested variances are necessary
for the preservation of the property right of the Applicants.
11. "The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or
morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter." Granting the
requested variances in this unique situation is not contrary to the intent of the zoning
chapter.
12. "The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but
is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty." The variances do not merely serve as a
convenience to the Applicants. The variances are necessary as the Property has
considerable practical difficulties affecting development.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS:
Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby
grants variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Sections 78-350 to allow the attached garage
addition to be set back 5.2 feet from the side 5.7 feet from Fagerness Point Road; and Section
78-1279 to allow construction of additions to the home, a reconfigured, reconstructed attached
garage, and lakeside balcony (on the west side)within the average lakeshore setback and within
the 75-foot setback from the OHWL; and Section 78-1680 to allow 1,804 square feet of hardcover
