3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on January 17,2001 and
recommended approval by a vote of 4 to 0.
4. The Planning Commission made the following findings of fact:
A. The property currently contains existing deteriorating retaining wall systems
at the lakeshore and street side of the property. Replacement of the retaining
walls is necessary to prevent erosion of the steep slopes on the property and
•
at the lakeshore.
B. The existing lakeshore retaining walls are located within 30'of the shoreline
but do not extend the full width of the property.
C. Hardcover in the 0-75'zone should not exceed 3,258.84 s.f.and no additional
hardcover should be allowed in this zone.
D. Hardcover in the 75-250'zone should not exceed 7,433 s.f.and no additional
hardcover should be allowed in this zone.
5. 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 variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions,light, air,nor pose a fire
hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a
convenience to the applicants,but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship
or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants;
and would be in keeping 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 construction
of a retaining wall system will not to 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.
7. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and
