3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on August 16, 1999 and
recommended approval by a vote of 5-0 on the proposed variances based upon the
following findings of fact:
A. The existing garage is located one foot over a sanitary sewer easement which
crosses the applicants' property.
B. Relocating the garage will bring it into line with the neighboring garages.
C. The proposed garage in the new location will reduce the overall hardcover
on the site.
D. The neighboring property owners were present at the meeting and expressed
their support for the garage.
4. 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.
5. 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 variance on the health, safety and
welfare of the community.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER,AND CONDITIONS
Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a
