MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 18, 1996 <br />• <br />( #12 _ #2190 James G. Fullerton - Continued) <br />Mabusth reported that the property for sketch plan review includes Lot 1, the original <br />Fullerton estate, Lot 2, the homestead of James Fullerton III, which will include a lot line <br />rearrangement, Lot 3, a developed lot once part of the estate, and Lot 4, which was <br />divided off but served by Fox Street on the east side. The current proposal is for a five lot <br />subdivision. It was noted that there will not be a back lot serving another property. All of <br />the lots meets the area and width requirements. There is a caretaker house which will be <br />maintained. Application will be made for a condition use permit and will meet the area <br />standards but is located about 45' from the lake shore. The accessory structure will be <br />removed as it is located on the lot lines and will not meet the standards. Mabusth stated <br />that the issue involves how to treat the upgrade of the road and whether a driveway access <br />would be allowed. <br />Winston informed the Commission that Tract E has an easement to use Fox Street but <br />does not currently use it. He also noted that the tract is not less than 2 -1/2 acre lots as <br />required by restrictive covenants. Mabusth asked if the covenant restricts the number of <br />units. Winston said the limitation is only to the size. Mabusth said this would allow an <br />additional unit to be served by Tract F for a total of possibly seven. <br />Mabusth informed the Commission that the entrance to the area is 25' width and <br />• surrounded by retaining walls. She noted that it would be difficult to upgrade the <br />roadway. The City Engineer reviewed the access and determined that it should remain a <br />private road to a minimum width of 24'. Mabusth said it would be difficult for this to <br />occur within the 500' due to the wooded nature of the property. The fire and police <br />departments will also review the plan. <br />�J <br />Winston said it was his desire to retain the gate and amenities along the entry. Lindquist <br />agreed that it was a beautiful entrance. Mabusth said the plan calls for an innovative <br />approach to an upgrade, and if the Commission supports it, it would be difficult to <br />envision a 24' width with a ditch. The Commissioners all agreed to support some <br />flexibility regarding this issue. <br />Winston reported that the division would result in lots of at least 4 acres in size. He noted <br />that the most northerly lot would be accessed directly from the street and several lots <br />would not utilize the entire length of the access. Only three lots would use the full extent <br />of the driveway to include the Fullerton homestead. Tract E and Lot 1 almost <br />immediately exist off of the private driveway. <br />Lindquist indicated that the private road would be maintained by the property owners. <br />31 <br />
