Mabusth explained that monument approval typically goes directly to Council for review as part of final subdivision approval. She noted that. perhaps the Planning Commission should determine if the applicant has the right to individual monuments for each lot. The plan shows a 3' setback from the roadway, and the monuments must be kept out of the drainage and utility easements. Waade noted that the monuments are proposed at a 18' setback from the roadway. He noted there are others within Orono that have individual monuments for residences. Butler had no problem with individual monuments if they would not be 7' tall.
