The Corp has granted a national permit because the land alteration will encroach less than 10, 000 s.f. of the wetland. The fill will affect 16$ or 7,900 s.f. of the total wetland area. D) The alteration of the wetlands will not involve the construction of ditching, but flowage will be allowed to fan out over the grass land areas. E) The applicants have provided a minimal amount of additional retention area to mitigate the filling of the wetlands. The City of Orono has not asked for additional retention area to mitigate the filling for road construction within the wetlands. 4. The City Counci 1 f inds that the conditions exi sting 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 properties ; 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. 5. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow the installation of a driveway will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties, nor wil 1 it depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
