OF A GARAGE AT 980 WEST FERNDALE ROAD
FILE #2295
BY
WHEREA , Conley Brooks, Jr. (hereinafter "the applicant") is owner of the
property located at 980 West Ferndale Road within the City of Orono (hereinafter "City") and
legally described as follows:
Exhibit A attached (hereinafter "the property"); and
WHEREAS, the applicant has applied to the City for a variance to Municipal
Zoning Code Sections 10.23, Subdivision 6 (B) and 10.03, Subdivision 9 (D) to construct a
detached garage located nearer the front or street lot line than the principal building on the
property where no accessory structures are normally allowed, and located F from the street lot
line where the required front yard setback is 50% and has requested a variance to allow such
structure to encroach 6' into the required 26' setback from a City protected wetland where no
structures are normally allowed.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono,
Minnesota:
R
FINDINGS
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2295.
2. The property is located in the LR-lA, Single Family Lakeshore Residential
Zoning District.
3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on September 15,
1997, and on a vote of 6 to 1 recommended conditional approval of the

proposed variance based upon the following findings:
A. There is no hardship for granting the wetland setback variance, and the
proposed structure should be reduced to 18'x24' and must meet the 26'
wetland setback.
B. The hardship for approval of the F street setback is that the pre-existing
garage which has been located at this site for many years currently
encroaches 2.8' into the right-of-way of Ferndale Road, and the new
garage will eliminate this encroachment.
C. The hardship supporting the location nearer the street lot line than the
existing residence structure is the orientation of the property and the
proximity of the proposed garage location to the lakeshore, providing
applicant with storage for lake oriented equipment at a location relatively
nearer the lakeshore than the existing residence.
4. The City Council has reviewed the proposal and finds that a garage no larger
than 12' x 15' is appropriate given the severe limitations of the site, and that such
garage should meet the 26' wetland setback and meet a 7' setback from the right-
of-way.
5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and
recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments
– - — — -- - by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and
welfare of the community.
6. 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 applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a
demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial
property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and
intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
