The property consists of 6 acres. The RR-lA zoning district requires 300' of width. The subject property consists of 223' of width. 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on February 21, 1989, and recommended unanimous approval of the proposed variance based upon the following findings: A) The existing residence does not have a garage. B) The house was placed on the property prior to RR-lA, 5 acre zoning standards. . C) The steep topography to the immediate rear of the house would require excessive filling to provide access to the garage addition. Page 1 of 4 City of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 2583 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 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. • CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.27, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the construction of a garage addition on the north side of the existing residence requiring a 30' front street setback variance and resulting in no further encroachment within the substandard front street setback of the existing principal structure, subject to the following conditions: 1.

Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this variance shall constitute a violation of the zoning code, shall automatically terminate any authority granted herein, and shall be punishable as a misdemeanor. 3.
