Jacobs (hereinafter "the applicant") is the owner of the property located at 1700 Shoreline Drive within the City of Orono (hereinafter "City") and legally described as fol lows: Refer to Exhibit A attached, (hereinafter "the property") ; and WHEREAS, the applicant has made application to the City of Orono to permit construction of a guest house at 1,749 square • feet per Section 10.27, Subdivision 3 and a variance to Section 10.03, Subdivision 9 (C) (1 ) as the guest house, considered an oversized accessory structure exceeding 1,000 square feet in area, would be the third oversized accessory structure on the property where only �one is allowed. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Counci 1 of Orono, Minnesota: FINDINGS 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1598 2. The property is located in the LR-lA Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District requiring 2 acres in , area. 3. The property is approximately 31 acres in area, 22 of which are considered dry buildable. 3.

Page 1 of 4 j 1 c - r „ : , . � Cit o� ORONO � • � 't�`- � RESOWTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL • NO. 2897 , `� . � � : � . � B) The property contains 22 plus acres of dry buildable land and can easily satisify the area needs of the guest house, existing principal structure and existing caretaker residence ( 2 acres per each residence equals 6 acres; 6 - 22 = 16 acres for credit of accessory structures) . C) Septic testing has confirmed suitable and adequate soils for a conventional system. D) All appropriate lot standards for the LR-lA zoning district have been satisified with conditional use permit proposal for guest house. 4. 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 properties ; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to al leviate 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. 5. The City Counci 1 f inds that granting a conditiona 1 use permit to the guest house 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 will 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. 6 . The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff , comments by the applicant's representative and the effect of the proposed use on the health, safety and welfare of the community.
