NO`V, THEREFORE BE IT RESOL«D by tb� City Council of Orono, Minnesota: FINDItiGS 1. This application was reviewed as Zonina File �03-2919. 2. The property is located in the RR-1B R�.�-a1 Reside�tial Zoning District, �z-hich requires minimum lot area of 2.0 acres an�' minimum lot width of 200'. The lot is 1.73 acres in�oss area and 2�1' in�vidth. Pa�e 1 of 6 � o� 0 0 � CITY of ORONO ,� .,.. � ti ��L �G~ RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �kESII�� NO. _ � �, +�? � -ez-�� a 3. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at a public hearing held on August 18,2003 and recommended partial approval of the application,based on the following findin�s and conclusions: a) Appro�al of the setback variance to allo�v the new 996 s.f accessory building to be located 23.1'from the side street lot line is reasonable due to the wide unused 1�InDOT right-of-way adjoinin�the side street lot line,«•hich provides for additional sepazation of the accessory structure from the actual travelled roadway. b) There is no hardship.or justification presented to support the variance to allow the attachment ofthe new 996 s.fbuilding to the existing 848 s.f.garage via a 16�s.f. �eenhouse. The resultant building of just over 2000 s.f.in area would potenrially have negative visual impacts as viewed from Highway 12, and is not in keeping with the intent of the Oversize Accessory Structures ordinance which attempts to limit the bulk and massing of accessory strucures on properties based on the size of the property. c) Appro�•al of a variance to allow the proposed 900 s.f.pool to be located 15' (rather than the 10'setback proposed)from the side street lot line is reasonable given the width of the unused portion of adjacent MnDOT right-of-way,the fact that at the proposed location no nei�hboring property o�vners will be affected by the�zsual or activity impacts normally associated«•ith a pool use, and keeping in mind the 15' setback from an interior side lot line normally required for a.ccessory structures of 7�0-1000 s.f. in azea. d) The setback �•ariances should be approved only in conjunction with a requirement to establish and maintain a suitable year-round ve�etative buffer along the side street lot line to soften the visual impacts of the structures allowed to bz nearer the lot line than normally allowed. e) Approval of the request for a CUP for plumbing in an accessory structure to include toilet sink and shower is reasonable given the intended use of the 996 s.f. structure a;a pool house,and althou�h the property is less than 2.O�acres in area, the proposed use substantially meets the intent of the ordinance allowin�plumbing in accessory structures, as long as such use is subject to the standard CL�P conditions limiting its use for dwelling or home occupation uses.

The City Council has cansidered this application including the findings and recommendarions of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the public, and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property aze peculiar to it and do not apply generall�-to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variances would not ad�-ersely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other dan�er to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants,but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessar�•to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keepin� with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 6. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow limited plumbing in the accessort- structure 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 dan;er to neighboring properties, nor will its use 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.
