The LR-1B zoning district is a single family lakeshore residential district requiring a <br /> minimum lot size of 1 acre and a minimum lot width of 140'. Records available to the City of Orono <br /> indicate the property was developed in 1920,long before the current zoning standards were adopted. <br /> The property has a total lot area of approximately 7,440 s.f. and a lot width of 50'. <br /> Because the property was developed prior to the adoption of the current standards, and the use is <br /> residential,the existing structure(s)on the property are considered legal non-conforming. The City <br /> would permit general cosmetic changes(ie.reroof,new siding,window replacement)to the house. <br /> However, no change or expansion to the building envelope of the house, or replaceinent of the <br /> structure is permitted without the City of Orono approval. The process currently available to the <br /> property owner would be to apply for variances to the lot area and lot width standards. Variances <br /> to permit replacement or expansion of the structure can only be approved by the City Council after <br /> � a public hearing with the Planning Commission. <br /> The City of Orono would include consideration of the following issues while reviewing a variance <br /> request: <br /> . The property has been developed as a residential site and used for residential purposes since <br /> about 1920. <br /> . The property is consistent with other lots in the locality. <br /> . Can the lot sustain the type of development proposed? <br /> . The property has been provided sanitary sewer service. <br /> Telephone(952)249-4G00 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
