3. The property is guided in the 2000-2020 Orono ConlmLuiity Mlnagement Plan (CMP) for single family residential use at a density of 2 units per acre. The proposed development with single family homes is consistent with the provisions of the CMP, and is consistent with surrounding development. The pi•operty is located within the MUSA and will be served with city sewer and city water. 4. Proposed Lots 2 and 5 contain eaisting homes that will remain as part of the plat. Also as part of the plat, an existing rear yard setback variance for Lot 5 will be eliminated with the new lot line configurations. A hoi7le previously existed on Lot 1 but has recently been demolished. Proposed building pad locations shown for Lots l, 3 and 4 are depicted in the preliminary plat at 50' x 60' with the exception of the building pad on Lot 4. The northwest corner of the 50' x 60' pad on Lot 4 is eliminated to accommodate the required 20' structure setback from a wetland buffer. 5. Proposed Lots 3 and 4 are back lots that do not abut a public right-of-way but will be accessed via Otrtlots A and B respectively. Lots 3 and 4 meet pertinent back lot standards. Otrtlots A and B each meet the 30' width code standard. 6. The only wetland on the site eaists at the western end of the property, minimally impacting proposed Lot 4. This wetland is classified as "Manage 1" requiring implementation of a 35' wetland buffer and a 20' structure setback from that buffer for a total of 55' of setback. The proposed building pad and driveway locations meet the 55' total required wetland setback. A buffer establishment and maintenance covenant will be required. 7. The property lies within 1,000' of North Arm and Crystal Bay of Lake Miiuletonlca r•equiring conformance with the h�rdcover regulations of Section 78- 1288 of tlle Shoreland Overlay District. The �pplicant has provided existing and proposed hardcover calculation worksheets for all five lots indicating no hardcover variances are necessary uuder the proposed plan. 8. While the CMP Parks Plan indicates a firture trail 1loiig North Shore Drive and Shadywood Road, it does not indicate which side oP the road the trail is plaiuled for but it does indicate the trail would be on the shoulder or separ�ted. The Park Conunission will be asked to review �nd make a recommendation regarding whether dedication of a trail e�sement will be required. Because dedication of actual land for p�rlc purposes is not required at ihis location, a Park Dedication ree in lieu ol l�nd per City Ordinance would be appropriate. Page 2 of 9
