Dear Mr. And Mrs. Gross:
As we have discussed, a cement court was built on your property which does not meet the
required setback distance from the side property line on your lot. Because your 35' X 65' court is
more than 1000 square feet the Orono Zoning Code Sections 10.03, Subdivision 14 (C) and
Subdivision 14 (D) require that it be located 30' from a side property line. Yours appears to be
about 7' or 8'.
If you or your contractor had applied for the required permit prior to beginning work you
would have known about these requirements in advance. When your contractor started work
even though there was no permit posted he left you in a difficult position
You also hired a landscape contractor to build a fenced in garden. This garden does not
require a permit, but it does need to be:
1. On your property
2. No more than 6' high within 30' of the property line
3. No fill or retaining wall may be within 5' of the property line
Section 12.02 of the Orono Zoning Code says: "The owner and/or occupant of any
property, upon which any work has been done in violation of any Building Code or zoning
requirement shall be responsible for obtaining a permit, and/or for correcting, removing or
abating such violation within thirty days after notice from the City that such violation exists."
Therefore, if you and your contractors have not corrected these violations by July 21,
2003, the City may initiate legal action. If you have any questions or require further explanation
please feel free to contact either me or the zoning department at City Hall.

RE: Sport Court
Dear Mr. Gross,
I have reviewed our files on your property and did not find a plan for the proposed sport court.
Please submit a survey showing the location of the proposed sport court drawn to scale. If the
location is approved the permit can be issued. The City requires an inspection prior to pounng
the concrete. If you can show the inspector that the project meets setbacks to the lot lines, then
you can proceed. If not, you may be required to have your surveyor stake the location. If you
have any questions please feel free to contact me at my office.
Sincerely,
