The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on September 15, 1986, and recommended approval of the proposed variance based upon the following findings: A) The neighboring property to the south, adjacent to the proposed addition, is higher in elevation and will experience no infringement on light, air, or open space as a result of the addition. . B) The additional hardcover can be offset by removal of � existing plastic under decorative rock beds. 4. The proposed additions and concurrent removal of equivalent amounts of hardcover are expected to result in no increase in the amount of run-of f f rom the property. The neighbor to the north has. requested relief from the existing natural drainage pattern . towards her property. It is possible to partially re-direct drainage further west to decrease the effect on the neighboring residence. • Page 1 of 4 � � � � � � �i ' � . � . _= {��5 :, c�t o� oR,oNo �� ,T��; � • H�"* T? `° RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCI L �?7�'` �t.

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.
