Orono City Chair Ressler <br /> Orono City Planning Commission Members <br /> January 19, 2021 <br /> Page 12 <br /> The ALS Line B proposed in the Jacobs Trust's six-lot development uses the wrong starting points <br /> from both sides of neighboring properties. To the Northwest, the Jacobs Trust relies on the <br /> imaginary building pad. To the Southeast, the Jacobs Trust uses an accessory building (i.e., a <br /> non-occupied garage) to set the ALS Line B. <br /> Lot 5 of the new six lot development, which was first published on Friday, October 23, 2020, and <br /> which was most recently illustrated on January 9, 2021, is not buildable. The correct ALS Line B <br /> would have to be set to the Burwell residence's distance from the shoreline, which would not allow <br /> a home on Lot 5. <br /> This is a good indicator of why the Jacobs Trust cannot propose either a six-lot or a seven-lot <br /> subdivision. The applicant is proposing too much density into too small of a land area. <br /> Rather than continue to have the Planning Commission's time absorbed by this Application, the <br /> Jacobs Family should submit a different proposal after answering all neighbor questions. <br /> Summary <br /> The Jacobs plat, as presently drawn, should not be approved. At a minimum, the proposed six- <br /> lot subdivision should be tabled until full engineering is completed. <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> /s/Aaron A. Dean <br /> Aaron A.
