MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 28, 1995 ( #7) #2046 LAKEVIEW GOLF, 405 NORTH ARM DRIVE - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/VARIANCE - RESOLUTION #3592 • Mr. Wenkstern and contractor were present. Gaffron reported on the two part proposal at the 130 acre golf course. Construction of a 4500 s.f. accessory structure is proposed 500' east of CoRd 19 and 600' south of North Arm Drive West. Three buildings are presently on the property with a clubhouse, storage building, and a storage /maintenance building with driveway access to CoRd 19. A variance is required due to the excess of size over the 3000 s.f limit for properties of 9 acres or more. There is an accessory structure ordinance based on lot area but the table stops at the 3000 s.f. limit. A draft amendment has been written to extend the table with 200 s.f of accessory structure for each additional acre. This proposal could be supported if the current table is extrapolated. Also required is a variance for excessive footprint area of all buildings. This property contains 6700 s.f with three buildings where 6000 s.f is allowed under the present code. The proposed storage building will not have a driveway, will be used for storage only, and have no access during the winter months. The Planning Commission was concerned with the screening. The building is open to the north and west. There are some mature trees but the building would sit above another shed by the silo. The applicant was asked to work with Staff before the permit was issued to soften the view. There are no height issues involved as the building is fairly low. • The second part of the proposal is regrading of fairways 15 and 16. Fairway 15 would be moved to the south and 16 to the southwest. This would open up the area to allow for a future building site. The sketch plan for the subdivision was viewed positively by the Planning Commission. 1800 cubic yards of fill will be moved with no import or export to create a small swale. Under consideration is the creation of a 3000 -5000 s.f. pond. The Engineer sees no problem with the plan or with drainage. The applicant will work quickly to revegetate the area in order to ready it for play. Goetten said she saw no problem with the proposal but was concerned with future outbuildings. The applicant informed her that this building should take care of the needs of the golf course. Hurr asked about the color of the building. Wenkstern said earth tones would be considered and would work with Staff on this as well as on landscaping. Gaffron said the applicant will be asked for an updated survey "as built" to show the lot changes and location of all buildings. • 10
