The only portions of the structure suitable for expansion are located completely within the 0-75' setback area. b) The basic design and layout of the residence would not allow for a vertical expansion. c) The proposed improvement wil 1 result in a net reduction of hardcover of 349 s.f. or .7$ within the 0-75' setback area. d) Based on the existing topography, the majority of drainage from the hardcover improvements on the property drains to the southwest and then eventually east to the lake only after it has traveled over extensive grassed lawn areas. • e) The residence structure was built in 1972 before existing Shoreland Regulations were in effect. There have been no major structura 1 alterations to the house since that date except for remodeling within existing building envelope. f) 41� of the total area of the property is located within the 0-75' setback area. g) Applicants have an interest in the l+ acre parcel to the immediate south of the property. The property remains in an undeveloped state and serves as retention area for surface runoff received from hardcover improvements on the property. h) The eventual removal of the tennis court from both the property and Lot 13 , Shore Hills would bring applicants' property into conformance with hardcover requirement within the 75-250' setback area. • Page 2 of 7 , � � O� • O O �b. - C ITY of ORONO � � ti ��� �G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCI L �kESH�4 NO. 317 3 4.
