The property is located in the LR-1B Lakeshore Residential Zoning District requiring one acre in area. 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on June 21, 1993 and recommended approval of the proposed variance to Section 10.55, Subdivision 8 and per Zoning Code Section 10.03, Subdivision 19 recommended approval of a conditional use permit for land alterations and the installation of retaini.ng walls within the lakeshore protected area based on the following findings: Page 1 of 5 I - � Fam 5005�ist Ororo � � . � O� � � CITY of ORONO O � �, -� �-'=�'e�'�� RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COLTNCIL � �J' � �., � ''� ,� n, >;� �, N0. � � � � j �� '�� ,� G� �9kE3H�g'� a. The existing lakeshore bank has sustained severe damage and may result in the complete collapse of the bank. b. Repairs of the steep bank completed in 1987 have failed. c. The plan provides for the installation of 3-1 sloped banks adjacent to the tiered walls section allowing for easy maintenance and to facilitate restoration of ground cover. d. Hardcover within the 0-75' setback area exists at 804 s.f. or 7.4% and is now proposed at 888.6 s.f. or 8.2%. 4. The City Council fmds that the conditions e�sti.ng 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 properties; 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 properry right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 5. The Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow the installation of retaining walls and the necessary land alterations within the lakeshore yazd will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighbori.ng properties, nor will its use depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.55, Subdivision 8 and per Section 10.03, Subdivision 19 grants a conditional use permit to permit grading unprovements and the installation of two tiers of Allan Block retaini.ng walls within the lakeshore protected area where no such encroachment is allowed and per plans by GME Consultants, Inc., Project No. 3766-A, Page 2 of 5 ' Fmn 5005 DisA Qom ' - � � � ��' CITY of ORONO Or O .� �'=��"�� RESOLUTION OF THE CI'I'Y COLTNCIL � � ,�,� 1!1�� ;� �-�' D" NO. � �� '' �=� ,, ; � ., r� '�, � , G ��kEsB�g� dated June 1993 subject to the following conditions: 1. �rosion control to be maintained on property before any land alterations commence and to be maintained until ground cover is restored. 2.
