MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Tuesday, May 26, 2015 <br />7:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Page 5 of 22 <br /> <br />7. #15-3723 SOURCE LAND CAPITAL – LAKEVIEW PROPERTY – 405 NORTH ARM <br />DRIVE – FINAL PLAT APPLICATION – 2ND PRELIMINARY REVIEW (continued) <br /> <br />Hager commented that is not very assuring. Hager noted according to the December 8 minutes, Andrew <br />Mack stated it would be moved. <br /> <br />McMillan stated it sounds like the applicants are doing their best to relocate the septic system and that the <br />earliest the final plat will be back before the City Council for final approval is June 8. McMillan asked <br />whether the testing could be completed by then. <br /> <br />Hiller indicated he will give Rusty a call but that it depends on the ground and weather conditions. <br /> <br />McMillan asked if the two proposed septic sites shown on the plat meet all the requirements. <br /> <br />Hiller indicated they do. <br /> <br />Hager stated she objects to those two sites. Hager pointed out there is a designated wetland in that area <br />and that she has measured from the boundary of that wetland to where the original proposed site would <br />be. Hager indicated that distance is not 50 feet back. Hager stated the wetland is located partly on the <br />golf course and partly on her land. In addition to that, there is a grove of beautiful hardwood trees that <br />has marked to be removed in order for the septic system to be placed there. Hager commented she finds <br />that unbelievable and that she is hoping for some quick action on this. Hager noted the applicant has had <br />all spring with some very nice weather. <br /> <br />McMillan stated her concern is noted. McMillan asked if there will be a legal document regarding the <br />park that the Council will be seeing. <br /> <br />Hiller stated at the present time they have an agreement in principle, which is outlined in Exhibit B. <br />Hiller indicated it was not their intention to share the detailed document since it was a private agreement <br />between two parties, but that they could possibly provide that if the Council would like to see it. Hiller <br />stated they are still working on that documentation and that it is their intention to finalize it fairly soon so <br />the bituminous trails can be put in at the same time the site is being graded. <br /> <br />McMillan indicated she is not familiar with this kind of arrangement and that she wanted to make sure <br />there were no concerns the City might have going forward in case there is a dispute. McMillan asked <br />whether there is any reason why the City would want to look at the document. <br /> <br />Mattick stated it is his understanding the lot would be classified as an outlot, which would be designated <br />as unbuildable, and that he does not know whether there is connectivity with the other trails. Mattick <br />stated given the fact that it is an outlot and cannot be developed, he does not envision anything that he <br />would need to review in the document. <br /> <br />Bryce Johnson, Citizens for Lakeview Preservation, stated the whole arrangement will be confidential but <br />that they could provide the agreement to the City Attorney if the City Council so desired. <br /> <br />McMillan noted this is a unique arrangement and that she wanted to make sure there were no issues <br />further down the road. <br />Item #03 - CC Agenda - 06/08/2015 <br />Approval of Council Minutes 05/26/15 [Page 5 of 22]
