The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendation of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the public, and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 7. 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 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 one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Sections 78-1279(1) and 78-1288(A) & (B) to allow hardcover at 18% or 2,794 s.f. within the 0-75' zone and hardcover at 21% or 5,129 s.f. within the 75'-250' zone in conjunction with construction of a 233 si attached garage addition and 2"a story bathroom window dormer, subject to the following conditions: 1. Council approval is based on the site plan submitted by the applicants and annotated by City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A.

Hardcover in the 0-75' zone shall not increase above the level of 2,794 s.f. or 18%. Hardcover in the 75-250' zone shall be limited to 5,129 s.f. or 21% per the proposed plan and hardcover allowance summary as depicted on Exhibit A.
