The Developer shall establish covenants providing for a Homeowners Association which will be responsible for all future maintenance activities related to the stormwater facilities and the Conservation Plan. 4. Existing grade for all lots for building height determination shall be the proposed grades as shown on the Preliminary Grading Plan dated 12/12/17 attached as Exhibit B. The grading plan as approved establishes new existing grades for building pads. 5. Development Fees a. Park Dedication - The Parks, Open Space and Trail Plan element of the Orono Comprehensive Plan does not specify the need for a neighborhood park at this location. A Park Dedication Fee in lieu of land would be appropriate per City Ordinance. The Park Fee is determined as 8% of the fair market value of the land being subdivided, but must be between a minimum of $3,250 and a maximum of $5,550 per residential dwelling unit. For the proposed lots, the Park Fee would be based on only the 2 new lots. The City's Assessor will be consulted to determine the market value of the land for establishing the amount of the fee. Park Fee Due $11,100. b. Stormwater and Drainage Trunk Fee. The development is subject to the 2018 Stormwater and Drainage Trunk Fee of $6,050 per acre. For the 1/2 -acre zoning districts, any lot exceeding 0.5 gross acres, including wetland, shall be charged a maximum trunk fee equal to the trunk fee for a 0.5 acre parcel. Therefore $6,050 x 1.5 [3 lots x 0.5 = 1.5 total acres] = $9,075.00. 6. Utilities. The property is within the MUSA. Sewer and water service is available to the Property. According to the as -built record sewer plan, the Property has one stub on Togo Road and two stubs at Northern Avenue. The property was fully assessed for 294 feet of front footage, which includes both Togo and Northern frontages.
