MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, November 18, 2019 <br />6:30 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Page 34 of 46 <br /> <br />measurement they used for this variance is exactly the measurement they would use for the lakeshore <br />setback. <br /> <br />Thiesse asked if Staff would confirm that the house is in bad shape and may be coming down shortly. <br /> <br />Oakden stated she did not believe it would be from activities from the City. She believes John has been <br />working with the homeowner. <br /> <br />Mr. Quinlivan said they reached out to the City, so the water has been cut off to the house. <br /> <br />Thiesse clarified that it's the neighbor’s house that's set back and asked if the applicant was in control of <br />it. <br /> <br />Mr. Quinlivan indicated that was right and Terry Peterson, Brainerd, is in control of it. It was noted the <br />Commission had a letter from him. <br /> <br />Mr. Quinlivan said Terry Peterson owns the adjacent property to the north that is set back. Almost every <br />property in the area is at roughly 150 feet. That particular property is set back farther. It's old, it's <br />dilapidated. His son lived there for a while. He moved his son out and had the City shut the water off to <br />the property. He noted the letter is a support letter. <br /> <br />Gettman asked if there was a buyer already for the proposed building. <br /> <br />Mr. Quinlivan answered that his customer is present. He does not own either piece. He is supporting Mr. <br />and Mrs. Adams, who bought the property. <br /> <br />Gettman stated he does not see any deck or anything else and asked if the applicant contemplated any <br />additions to it. <br /> <br />Mr. Quinlivan answered the house was coming down and it will be a new build. It will have a patio but <br />there won't be a deck. <br /> <br />Chair Ressler opened the public hearing at 9:51 p.m. <br /> <br />Penny Saiki, 2874 Casco Point Road, asked where the fill is going, where the fill is being removed, or <br />what is with the application for the fill. <br /> <br />Mr. Quinlivan stated most of the time it is taken off-site for other projects that need fill. <br /> <br />Ms. Saiki asked whether it was removal for the foundation. <br />
