D) The street lamp illuminates the entire corner and the applicant's residence. Natural plantings have been installed to provide screening from the headlights and the ad j acent 1 ights of the street, but the prob 1 em i s that there is no physical barrier to prevent people from walking from the road immediately onto the property. � 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 variances on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 5.

CONCLDSIONS, ORDffit AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10. 03 , Subdivision 15 (C) and Section 10.23 , Subdivision 6 (B) to permit the installation of a 4' high wall within the side street yard of the property where only a 3�' high wall is allowed and to be placed 3' from the street/side lot line instead of the required 50', subject to the following conditions: • 1.
