Concept Review— Narrative — EISINGER FLATS <br /> meet these goals, certain parcels with the Metropolitan Urban Service Area(MUSA)were <br /> guided for densities significantly higher than 3 units/acre—to allow those shoreland areas in <br /> the MUSA historically zoned and planned for low density,to develop at the 1-acre and 2-acre <br /> lot sizes desired by the City." <br /> Prosect Meeting RPUD requirements:Within FINDINGS, Paragraph B11, a through g: <br /> a) Incorporates flexibility in land development and redevelopment in order to utilize new <br /> techniques of building design, construction and land development; <br /> b) Provides lifecycle housing with the potential to meet affordable and moderate cost <br /> housing needs; <br /> c) Incorporates energy conservation through the clustering of buildings and land uses; <br /> d) Preserves desirable site characteristics and open space and protects sensitive <br /> environmental features, including sensitive wetland areas,while avoiding the portions <br /> of the property which are encumbered by a close landfill; <br /> e) Provides design compatible with surrounding land uses, including both existing and <br /> planned; <br /> f) Results in a sensitive development in the transitional area located between low <br /> density single family uses to the north and south,considering the location between <br /> two arterial highway corridors as well as the agriculturally used property to the east <br /> guided for future medium—high density residential use; and <br /> g) Yields development which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan guiding for <br /> higher density than the typical urban and rural residential development in Orono. <br /> F. Construction Debris Landfill / MPCA Resolutions <br /> A portion of the site is part of a historic landfill of generally demolition materials as discussed <br /> during the original north phase approval. We are working closely with our consultant,Wenck <br /> Associates, Inc. and the MPCA to coordinate efforts on required cleanup for the project. The <br /> next step is to finalize a Response Action Plan(RAP)which will detail the procedures to <br /> remove any demolition or landfill debris found during site preparation. It is our intent to <br /> proceed with this RAP during the preliminary plan stage upon review and comment of the <br /> concept review. <br /> Page 4 of 4 <br />
