The property is located in the LR-1C, Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zon.in� District. 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on August 21, 1995, and recommended approval of certain requested variances and denial of other , requested variances based upon the following findings: ,y A. The lot area and lot width variances should be granted since a residence already exists on the property and no addi�ional land is available for purchase by the applicant to make the lot area and width more , conforming. B. The proposed variance to allow construction of a deck in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone should be denied because no adequate hardship has been justified to support such a variance. The removal of the existing • residence and deck area affords every opportunity and ability to construct a residence and deck meeting the required 75' lzlceshore setback, and the relative location and current use of the residence structure on the adjacent properry do not provide sufficient hardship to justify the ;ranting of the requested lakeshore setback variance. C. The average lakeshore setback variance is justified based on the location of the adjacent house to the north which is extremely distant from the lake and therefore creates an average setback line which would force apglicant's proposed residence to be similarly distant from the lakeshore, resulting in not one but two residences out of character with the general residential development in the neighborhood. D. The applicant has proposed to remove the existing detached garage which is 0.1' from the south side line and move that garage to a location meeting all setback requirements. E, The requested variances to allow a side setback of 9.5' on both the north and south side lot li.nes where a 10' side setback is normally required, are justif ed by the elimination of the existi.ng 1.6' south side setback by replacing that structure with a new structure meeting 95% of the required • Page 2 of 7 � { � O� . • O O �b. - C ITY of ORONO � � � .. �� �'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � ��kESH�g'� NO. � � O � setback instead of the existing 16%, and said setback variances are further justified by the negative impact on room sizes and house layout if the variances are not granted, and the improved location of the residence in relation to lot lines provides further overall justification for the setback variances. F. A hardcover variances in the 0-75' zone is not justified since the removal of existing residence and deck allows for the replacement of a new house . and deck meeting the 75' lakeshore setback and therefore any hardcover in the 0-75' zone can easily be avoided. Applicant has not shown adequate hardship to justify placement of hardcover in the 0-75' zone. G. Hardcover in the 75-250' zone is proposed to increase from 24.6% existing to 31% proposed by applicant. Moving the proposed house and deck out of the 0-75' zone results in a final hardcover (accounting for • reduced sidewalk length) of approximately 4,600 s.f. or 35.0% in the 75- 250' zone. This percentage increase is justified by the hardcover elimination in the 0-75' zone. Further, hardcover in the 250-500' zone will increase from the existing 22.8% to 60% proposed by the applicant where only 30% is normally allowed, however, a hardship is the small size of the 250-500' zone and the variance is justified by the concurrent removal of hardcover,in the 0-75' zone and general reconstruction of l�ardcover at locations further from the lake than currently exists. Overall hardcover on the properry is proposed to decrease from 5,715 s.f. (28.5%) to approximately 5,350 s.f. (26.7%), where the entire lot would normallj�be allowed 18.3% hardcover under normal hardcover limitations. 4, The City Council finds that the negative impact on room sizes and house layout and improved location of the residence in relation to lot lines as compared to the existing residence, is inadequate just�cation for granting of side setback variances. Further, the Council finds that because the existing house is being replaced with an entirely new house of different shape and design, the new house can be designed to meet the side setbacks without causing a hardship to the properry owner, and fi!rther finds no adequate hardships to justify the granting of a side setback variance. . i .. - Page 3.of 7 . . , • . , xa:� .

The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by Ciry staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the commun.ity. 6. The City Council fmds that the conditions existing on this properry are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other properry in this zon.ing district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect tr�ffic 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 properry right of the applicant; and would be i.n keeping with the spirit and intent of the � Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. CONCLUSIONS, ORIl�ER AN� CONDITIONS � Based upon the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoni.ng Code Section 10.25, Subdivision 6 (B) to permit the removal of the existing residence, deck and detached garage and construction of a new residence, deck and detached garage on a lot of area 0.46 acre where a 0.50 lot area is normally required, and on a lot of width 75' where a 100' lot width is normally required; and grants a variance to Section 10.22, Subdivision 1 to allow the new residence and deck to be constructed lakeward of the defined average setback line, and grants a variance to Sections 10.22, Subdivision 2 and 10.56, Subdivision 16 (L) to allow 35.0% hardcover in the 75-250' zone where only 25% hardcover is normally allowed, and to allow 60% hardcover in the 250-500' zone where only 30% hardcover is normally allowed; and denies a variance to Section 10.25, Subdivision 6 (B) to allow the new residence structure and deck to be located 9.5' from the north and south side lot lines where a 10' side setback is normally required; subject to the following conditions: 1, The proposed new residence and deck shall not be located within the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone, and no hardcov�r will be allowed in the 0-75' zone. 2. Hardcover in the 75-250' zone shall be lim.ited to 4;600 s.f. (35.0%) per the diagram and schedule attached as Exhibit A. Further, hardcover in the 250-500' zone shall be limited to 750 s.f. (60.0%) per the schedule and diagram attached in Exhibit A. Applicant is advised that any future proposals to add hardcover to • the property beyond the levels approved in this resolution will require an additional variance application, and might be aFproved only with conEUrrent removals of existing hardcover to result in no net hardcover increase. s Page 4 of 7 Y I O� • O O �b. - CITY of ORONO � � �� �'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � ��kESHOg'� NO. � � 0 � 3. New home construction shall meet the required 10' side setbacks. 4. Authorities granted by this variance run with the properry not with the applicant, but are perm.issive only and must be exercised by application for a building permit wittvn one year of the date of Council approval, or this variance will expire on that date (September 11, 1996). 5.
