MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON APRIL, 21, 1997 <br />• <br />( #6 - #2221 -Sven Wasberg and Arlene DeCandia - Continued) <br />Stoddard said he would support the application if the existing foundation were used. If <br />not, he asked that the residence be repositioned and made smaller. <br />Wasberg said he would move the design back on the lot. He also indicated he informed <br />the neighbor that he would plant a row of trees between their properties. <br />Berg indicated the applicant should be able to move the proposed residence back behind <br />the average lakeshore setback line. <br />Lindquist suggested tabling the application to allow the residence to be redesigned for a <br />smaller structure that could be placed further back on the property. Wasberg indicated he <br />cannot pull the entire structure behind the 75' setback because he needs room to back a <br />car out. Lindquist asked Wasberg to work with his architect on the design. He also asked <br />the applicant to attempt to eliminate the need for a side setback. <br />Wasberg asked for direction on how big the structure may be. After discussion, the <br />applicant was informed to limit the structure coverage to 1500 s.f. <br />Hawn suggested the structure be shifted so it lays perpendicular rather than parallel to the <br />• shoreline. <br />• <br />Schroeder moved, Smith seconded, to table application #2221 for further review. Vote: <br />Ayes 7, Nays 0. <br />( #7) #2221 JOSEPH VOCHKO, 2925 CASCO POINT ROAD - CONDITIONAL <br />USE PERMIT - PUBLIC HEARING 8:58 -9 :08 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The Applicant was present. <br />Van Zomeren reported that the application is a request for an after - the -fact variance and <br />conditional use permit for the construction of a retaining wall and stairway. Hardcover <br />variance is required for the wall in the 0 -75' setback and the CUP to alter the retaining <br />wall. The work was stopped in progress. Letters from and to the applicant are part of the <br />package. The resolution would allow the applicant to place random boulders. The <br />engineering consultant recommended the boulders with caution as there is concern of <br />movement with boulders. The proposed stairway is adequate. The resolution would <br />include conditions 1 -5 as noted in the staff report. <br />10 <br />
