C ITY of ORONO � � ti �� ' G~' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL ��kES80�� NO. _ Lg � � t�. 4. The Planning Commission made the following findings of fact: A. The lot area and lot width meet the zoning district requirements; B. The proposed deck increases structure on the property but does not exceed the maximum permitted; C.

The proposed deck minimally increases hardcover in the 75'-250' hardcover zone by 86 s.f. Hardcover within this hardcover zone should not increase from what exists with this application; and F. The 40' street right-of-way on the property is not included in the lot area or hardcover calculations. There is a small portion of the house and related hardcover existing within the right-of-way. 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 zonin;district; that granting the variances will 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 applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 6. The City Council has considered this application, including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City Staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variances on the health, safety and welfare of the community.
