The property is located in the RR-1B Single Family Rural Residential Zoning District. 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on August 20, 1990 and recommended approval of the proposed variance on a vote of 5 to 0 based upon the following findings: a. The property has contained a single family residence for many years. The residence � was destroyed by fire in February 1990, with the foundation remaining and still useable. Applicant proposes to reconstruct the house using the existing foundation. The need for the variance stems • from a proposed story above the pre-existing one story attached garage having been located 19.3' from the side lot line. � Page 1 of 4 �� ? y , `^.r. � ��� : � C�t o� ORONO � �, � `• � RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �.
