The property is located in the LR-1B Zoning District,where 1 acre is the minimum required lot area. The property consists of approximately 0.48 acres. 3. �The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on April 21, 2003 and recommended approval by a vote of 6 to 1. � 4. The Planning Commission made the following findings of fact: ' A. The deck has existed in this location since 1972; B. The neighbor's views of the lake are not greatly affected by the location of the ' - � deck; � C. The deck will not change the structural setback from the OHWL of Lake � • Minnetonka or the average lakeshore setback; � . D. Expansion of the deck as proposed, filling in the"U" shaped area,would increase structural coverage and hardcover on the property. The applicant has stated that the expansion can be configured so that it will not increase hardcover. However, structural coverage will still increase; and E. Instead of filling in the "U" shaped area,the deck could be reconfigured to avoid an increase structural coverage on the lot. A new deck may be up to 482 s.f. in size (or 83 s.f. larger than it currently exists) and still meet the ' � maximum structural coverage (3,157 s.f. or 15% of the lot area) allowed on the lot. � � 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 will 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.
