This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1152. <br /> 2. The property is located in the LR-1B Single Family Lakeshore <br /> Residential Zoning District. <br /> 3. The Orono Planni.ng Commission reviewed this application on June <br /> 15, 1987, and recommended approval of the proposed variance based upon <br /> the f o l lowing f indings: . <br /> A) Applicant is remodeling the existing house and as part of <br /> that remodeling is replacing the existing attached garage with a <br /> new attached garage in a more conforming location. The result <br /> is that removal of the old garage coupled with construction of <br /> the proposed deck actually results in an increase in lake views <br /> of the affected neighbor at 3135 North Shore Drive by <br /> approximately 6 degrees. The new deck encroachment technically <br /> does require a variance because it encroaches further past the <br /> � defined average lakeshore setback line than the existing garage. <br /> B) The proposed deck is mainly over an existing slab and in <br /> conjunction with concurrent removals of pre-existing hardcover on <br /> the property, the property wil 1 become conforming as to hardcover <br /> percentage in the 75-250' zone. <br /> � C) The encroachment of 89' into the average setback zone is a <br /> result of the unusual defined shoreline configuration in the <br /> neighborhood and the locations of existing residences in relation <br /> to the shoreline. <br /> Page 1 of 4 <br />
