MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON SEPTEMBER 11, 10795 ( #8 - #2050 William Toles - Continued) The driveway area was discussed. It had been reduced from 1988. Part of the driveway • is on an easement and any removal would require approval by the neighbor. it was included in the calculations in order to compare the hardcover amounts with the calculations of 1988. If the amount were taken out, it would show a favorable impact, since 50% of its area is hardcover. The other driveway is needed to gain access to the detached garage. Callahan said he was at the Planning Commission meeting where consideration was given to the problems and voted 6/0 in favor of the proposal. Hurr said she was concerned with the width of the driveway. Mark Gronberg commented that most of the driveway was in the next zone, the 75 -250'. The 0 -75' and 250 -500' zones were well under the allowable. It was noted that the pool was set back 115' from the lake and would provide a buffer. Kelley moved, Callahan seconded, to adopt Resolution #3600. Ayes 3, Nays 0. (#9) #2051 MICHAEL HH,BELINK/JOHN VOGT, 2760 WATERTOWN ROAD - PRELIMINARY PLAT - RESOLUTION #3601 The applicants were present. • Mabusth reported that the preliminary plat application was for a 4 -lot plat of the former Rosch property located at Old Crystal Bay Road and Watertown Road in a rural residential zone requiring 2 -acre minimum lots. All of the lots meet the 2 -acre minimum as well as the width to the rear of the 50' street setback. Suitable soils have been found for the principal and alternate septic sites with a 6% or less slope for mound systems. There are type I wetlands within lots 3 and 4, very similar to the previous Carson application. Covenants will be required for protection of the wetlands and ask that if any alterations are made to the land, the permits would be received from federal agencies prior to making application to the City. The grading plan shows a retention pond. Drainage would be treated prior to entering the wetland by a retention pond located between lots 2 and 3. The drainage would travel along lots 3 and 4 to the wetlands, draining through a culvert into the type 1 wetland. Mabusth said the applicant has also granted trail easements extending to the north on the west side of the property along Old Crystal Bay Road. A 10' easement is located on the lower portion of the property and extending to 15' further north. The trail will be installed by the City. The Park Commission has asked that the area of trail be deducted from the 8% amount of land allowable for Park Dedication and the rest in cash in lieu of land. • 6
