MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING <br />• HELD AUGUST 9, 1993 <br />( #5) #1841 WILLIAM AND LORI CORNELIUS, 960 TONKAWA ROAD <br />VARIANCE <br />William and Lori Cornelius and Stephen Longman, their contractor, <br />were present. <br />Mabusth stated the application is for hardcover and setback <br />variances within the lakeshore setback area to allow a section of <br />an existing access drive, approximately 1200 s.f., to remain as <br />part of a loop driveway in order to save a grove of mature maple <br />and oak trees. <br />Goetten asked why the driveway is not straight into the garage. <br />Gustafson stated there is not much room for turning and backing `out <br />of the garage. <br />Mabusth stated the applicant did not know the loop driveway was <br />within the 75' setback area until the snow melted and construction <br />of the house had started. She noted there is 16% hardcover within <br />the 250' -500' where 30% is allowed. <br />Cornelius produced an old survey and pictures showing the trees he <br />• is trying to save. <br />There are no objections from abutting property owners. <br />Jabbour asked what the hardcover percentages were within the 75'- <br />250' . After calculation Mabusth stated it would be 24.01 where 251 <br />is allowed. <br />Jabbour stated that the resolution should be amended to reflect <br />1200 s.f. of 0 -75 hardcover be included in 75 to 250 hardcover <br />allowance and that staff develop a control on the removal of mature <br />trees once driveway is installed. <br />It was moved by Jabbour, seconded by Mayor Callahan, to approve <br />the variance request for William and Lori Cornelius, 960 Tonkawa <br />Road, subject to amendments. Amended resolution to be brought back <br />to Council for August 23, 1994.
