MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> MEETING HELD ON MARCH 16, 1998 <br /> (#2 - #2340 Robert Waade Continued) <br /> Mabusth asked what other variances would be required. Gaff-on reported that lot width <br /> would be required unless the lot line along the road outlot was defined as the front lot line <br /> instead of CoRd 51. There would be no need for a hardcover variance if credit was given <br /> for the ponding. The variances necessary would be for the length and width of the outlot. <br /> Berg said it was important to note that the driveways would still be located there whether <br /> one unit or two. <br /> Jody Dalvey said she would like to see the area cleaned up. She believes people would be <br /> less apt to buy property in the area if a duplex was allowed. She acknowledged that her <br /> primary concern is with the duplex. <br /> Berg felt the main issues have been addressed. <br /> Smith suggested tabling the application to allow the applicant to redesign the project. <br /> Waade asked if the Commission would support the duplex proposal if the footprint was <br /> reduced. Smith felt the main issue was with reducing the structural coverage. She noted <br /> support was voiced for the variance for the driveway. Smith informed Waade of the need <br /> to submit a drainage plan for review. She emphasized that lake access would only be <br /> • allowed to the single family residence. <br /> Stoddard said he supported the Staff recommendations noted on page 6 of the memo <br /> noting the property is zoned for duplex. He supported the driveway and lot width <br /> variance and structural coverage of 15%. He suggested the applicant work with staff <br /> Smith noted the applicant also needs to protect the adjacent property in regards to <br /> drainage as part of the grading plan. <br /> Marfield reminded the Commission of Lindquist's comments. Smith informed Marfield <br /> that Lindquist was speaking for himself She noted that the plan as proposed would most <br /> likely be denied if a recommendation was made at this time. Smith informed the applicant <br /> that the Commission needs to see the revised plan before review by Council. <br /> Smith moved, Berg seconded, to table Application##2340. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br /> (Agenda item #3 follows item #5.) <br /> • <br />
