NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono, Minnesota: . ' � Page 1 of 9 �� S� ��^ . � O� • O O ��b. - CITY of ORONO � � �� �'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL - ��kESH�g'� NO. � � R � FINDINGS 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2135. 2. The property is located in the LR-lA, Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. 3. The Orono Planning Commission originally reviewed this application on May 20, 1996 and reviewed revisions to the application on July 15, 1996, and on a vote of 5 to 1 recommended approval of the proposal as revised based upon the � following findings: . A. Factors which make this a difficult lot in terms of development include steep topography, shallow lot depth between street and lake leaving • virtually no conforming building envelope, and the location of the existing house almost entirely within the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone. B. Replacement of the existing detached garage which encroaches 0.2' into . the right-of-way, with an attached garage located 8' from the right-of- way, is a positive improvement to the neighborhood. C. The proposed location of the main portions of the house approximately 30' from the street lot line is not inconsistent with other houses in the neighborhood on the lake side of Long Lake Boulevard. The location of the existing house and the undesirability of constructing additions on the south side of the house, justifies granting of the variance for additions on the north side of the house away from the lake. D. The proposed second story additions and attached garage addition are modest in scope and do not yield a residence structure that is out of character for this lot in this neighborhood. E. Neither adjacent lakeshore lot will have existing lake views encroached upon by the proposed additions, hence the average lakeshore setback variance will have no impact on those properties. • Page 2 of 9 �1,i . I O� • O O �b- � CITY of ORONO � � � ti �� G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL. . � ��k'ESH��`'�' NO. � `7 � � F. While the second story addition and additions to the north side of the house are substantially within the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone, those additions will not create any new rooms or walls closer to the lake than the footprint of the existing house, and the proposed plans yield a residence with a two story facade on the lake side and a one story facade on the street side, thus limiting the visual impact of the addition in the ' 0-75' zone. G. While a small portion of the property is defined as bluff and work is proposed in the bluff impact zone, the visual impact of such work will � not be substantially different from the existing visual impact, and grading, drainage and erosion controls must be addressed suitably-before the City will issue building permits. • H. Because the property will potentially be provided with municipal sewer within one to two years, it is reasonable to allow conversion of the existing non-conforming septic system to a holding tank system subject to a pumping contract being provided to the City. Further, the fact that there is a suitable drainfield site that could accommodate primary and alternate drainfield systems for a two bedroom home, suggests that the residence should not increase above the level of two bedrooms until such time that municipal sewer is available to the property. A covenant with � such a restriction, and design revisions to eliminate a closet in the den � and remove the south wall of the den if not a bearing wall, are reasonable conditions to protect the City and the future property owners should sewer not be provided to the property. I. Existing hardcover in the 0-75' zone is 1,195 s.f. or 6.79%. The proposed 10 s.f. reduction to 1,185 s.f. in the 0-75' zone, coupled with an increase in 75-250' zone hardcover from 887 s.f. to 1,467 s.f. results in a total hardcover on the properly of 2,652 s.f. This is less than the 25% hardcover allowance for the property in the 75-250' zone of 2,724 s.f., hence while a portion of the hardcover is in the 0-75' zone, overall . hardcover on the property will remain at a justifiable level. • Page 3 of 9 � ,�. , � O ' V • O O �b. - CITY of ORONO � � ti ��� �G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL - �kESH�g' NO. � `� � e5 4. 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. 5. The City Council fmds that the conditions e�sting 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. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS ' � Based upon the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.23, Subdivision 6(B) to allow a street setback of 8' for a house and attached garage where a 50' street setback is normally required; and a variance to � Sections 10.22, Subdivision 2, 10.55, Subdivision 8, and 10.56, Subdivision 16(C) and 16(L) to allow additional structure and hardcover to be constructed in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone where no structure or hardcover is nornially allowed; and a variance to Section 10.56, Subdivision 16(C) to allow additional construction as near as 49' to the shoreline of a Recreational Development lake where a 100' lake sefback for structures is normally required; and a variance to Sections 10.22, Subdivision 1(B) and 10.56, Subdivision 16(C) to allow encroachment of the average lakeshore setback where no such encroachment is normally allowed; and variances to Sections 10.56, Subdivision 16 (C) and 16(� to allow structures, filling and excavating within the bluff impact zone where no structures, filling or excavating is normally allowed, subject to the following conditions: 1. Any future revisions to the approved site plan which increase the degree or magnitude of variances required or in the opinion of City staff constitute . substantial changes from the intent of this approval, shall subject the application to further City review. • Page 4 of 9 � .t• , , � � O� ;i O O ��b. - CITY of ORONO . � � ti ��� ��'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � `�kEsxog' No. 3 `7 F 5 2. Hardcover in the 0-75' zone shall not exceed 1,185 s.f. as shown on the site plan and hazdcover calculations attached as E�chibit A. Hardcover in the 75-250' zone shall not exceed 1,467 s.f. as indicated on Exhibit A. All hardcover removals necessary to reach these approved hardcover levels shall be completed prior to footing inspection for the new construction. The applicant is advised that any future additions of hardcover on the property which result in hazdcover additions i�i the 0-75' zone will not be approved. Further, any hardcover additions proposed in the 75-250' zone which yield a total hardcover on the property in excess of 2,724 s.f. will likely not be approved, but might be approved only in conjunction with the concurrent removal of pre-existing hardcover on the property, resulting iri no net hardcover increase or net decrease in hardcover. 3. Applicant shall provide detailed retaining wall plans prior to issuance of a building pernut, subject to the requirements set forth by the City Engineer in his • letter dated September 19, 1996. 4. Prior to the filing of this variance resolution, applicant shall provide to the City a restrictive covenant drafted by the applicant or applicant's attorney and meeting the approval of the City Attorney, restricting the property from use as a three or more bedroom home until such time that City sewer has been installed to the . ProPert3'• � . � 5. No building permit shall be issued for remodeling or additions to the property until the applicant has completed the following: A. Converted the existing septic system to a holding tank system subject to approval of the City. B. Provided the City with a signed pumping contract for regular . maintenance of the holding tank system. C. Provided detailed construction plans clearly showing only two bedrooms � in the house, which may require revisions to the plans submitted for this application, including elimination of the closet in the den and removal of , the south wall of the den if it is not a bearing wall. • Page 5 of 9 � �5 � '] I O� • O O ��e. - CITY of ORONO � � � ��� ��'�'F RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � 9k'ESH�4 NO. e`3 `� � .�i 6.
