This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1643. <br /> 2. The property is located in the RR-1B Single Family Rural <br /> Residential Zoning District. <br /> 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application <br /> on May 20, 1991, and recommended approval of the renewal <br /> variance based upon the following findings: <br /> A) The proposed location of the new garage is <br /> appropriate for the following reasons: <br /> i. The existing well is .located directly behind <br /> the existing carport, hence expansion to the rear <br /> corner of the house is not practical. <br /> ii. Attaching the garage in place of the carport <br /> would still require a side setback variance and <br /> would place the main existing entryway to the r <br /> house inside the garage. The proposal leaves an - <br /> entry walkway between the garage, providing a more <br /> usable, formal entryway. <br /> Page 1 of 4 <br />
