0 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR SEPTEMBER 15, 1997 <br />( 0) #2294 LGA INVESTMENT GROUP, JIM WATERS, 1181 WILDHURST TRAIL - <br />PUBLIC HEARING 8:50 -9:32 P.M. <br />A. CLASS III 7 LOT PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION <br />B. STREET VACATION <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The Applicant was present. <br />Gaffron reported that the application is for a 7 -lot subdivision southeast of the park land area. It <br />includes the Soskin and Sollner properties. The City park is located to the north. The property abuts <br />Wildhurst Trail on the east and Garden Lane on the west. The property is in the LR -1B Zoning <br />District, which is sewered, within the MUSA boundary, and requires 1 acre minimum lots with 140' <br />width. The application was previously reviewed as a sketch plan. <br />The access to the development will be on a road from Tonkaview Lane with a cul -de -sac at the north <br />end and a second cul -de -sac to the east. The Planning Commission had previously shown support <br />• for that access. Changes for consideration include access to the park from Garden Lane, a temporary <br />cul -de -sac, and protection of the ravine. The current proposal is for a total of seven lots. <br />C� <br />The current plan calls for a vacation of a portion of Garden Lane and rededication of a public <br />roadway to the east allowing the western lot ( Sollner lot) to be split into two parcels. The public <br />road with cul -de -sac to the east will provide access for three or four lots. Utilities present no <br />problem. The Hennessy property to the north will require access, and Staff suggested one way to <br />accommodate this is via a private driveway in the dedicated right -of -way. The Garden Lane right -of- <br />way was dedicated in 1921. It was an open field up until the 1950's but is currently wooded. <br />The seven proposed lots average one -plus acres. Gaffron said it appears that they will meet the 140' <br />width requirement. Lots 1 and 4 of Block 2 will require drainage easements in excess of the <br />perimeter easement over the ravine and to the north. The one acre requirement needs to be met in <br />addition to the drainage easement. <br />Gaffron said the applicant has defined the orientation of the homes and lot types. Lots 3 and 4 of <br />Block 2 are on a cul -de -sac with walkouts to the east. Lots 1 and 5 of Block 2 will have walkouts <br />to the side and rear. Lots 2, Block 1, and Block 2, will have look -out lots on flat terrain. Lot 1, <br />Block 1, will be a walkout but require building up of the grade to create the walkout. <br />14 <br />
