MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING Monday, November 18, 2019 6:30 o’clock p.m. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Page 4 of 46 Mr. Steve Eggert, Lakewest Development, said the design was mindful of the LMCD and meets the setbacks on the north side of the dock. He said at certain points after "X" feet, there's a 50-foot and 100- foot extension. They need to be a distance away from the invisible setback that cuts through the line if the lot were to be extended. The design was mindful for an easy-in/easy-out on the maximum traffic going to the west of the dock. Mr. Eggert spoke with the property owner, and Rusty is okay with the reflectors and the 4-foot path. Chair Ressler opened the public hearing at 6:45 p.m. There were no public comments relating to this application. Chair Ressler closed the public hearing at 6:45 p.m. Ressler noted the placement of the dock as proposed makes sense. The current placement is probably more respectful for his neighbors than having it go straight out based on the angulation of the shoreline. He is in favor of the project as proposed based on the contingencies recommended by Staff. Ms. Penny Saiki, 2874 Casco Point Road, asked where the road is relative to the shore and land setback. She also asked if the road was on the sanitary sewer. Barnhart, using a map, indicated where Ivy Place Road ends and responded that it was roughly near it. Some portions may be on the sanitary sewer, which is not uncommon. Bollis, Erickson, and Gettman stated they did not have any concerns. Libby stated he agreed with Chair and Staff. Libby moved, Gettman seconded, to approve Application LA18-000094 Lakewest Development, 3570 Ivy Place, Conditional Use Permit For A Permanent Dock with the conditions recommended by the staff. VOTE: Ayes 7, Nays 0. Barnhart said the City Council will review the previous applications on December 9. 3.
