The property contained an existing residence foundation and detached garage originally built in 1950, �vhich was destroyed by fire in 1998, leaving only the foundation and a detached garage. 4. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on January 22, 2003 and recommended approval of the lot area variance and denial of the lot coverage by structures variance by a vote of 6 to 0. The Planning Commission made the following finding of fact: A. The lot area of 0.37 acres is sufficient to allow reconstruction on the site, where a residence has previously existed for many years. B. Removal of the existing foundation and building a new residence is new construction requiring that all lot standards must be met. C. There is insufficient hardship to support the requested lot coverage by structures variance. The need for extra storage and lack of land to combine suggested by the applicant as a hardship, can be ameliorated by downsizing the design of the residence to meet the required lot coverage by structure limitation. Furthermore,while the land adjacent to the subject property is a platted alley, the City does not intend to vacate it. 5. The City Council finds that the conditions eYisting on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the _ variances�vill 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. 6. 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 variances on the health, safety and welfare of the community.
