MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />Monday, September 20, 2021 <br />6:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />2.LA21-000061 ERIC VOGSTROM O/B/O WILLIAM AND SUSAN DUNKLEY 2709 <br />WALTERS PORT LANE – PRELIMINARY PLAT (STAFF: JEREMY BARNHART) <br />Eric Vogstrom, Applicant, was present. <br />Staff presented a summary packet of information. Barnhart stated the Applicants are requesting <br />Preliminary Plat approval to re-plat their lots and an outlot owned by the Dunkley’s. The re-plat would <br />allow for a cul-de-sac to allow access for the Dunkley’s off of Pence Lane, and the cul-de-sac and re-plat <br />would allow the removal of certain access restrictions imposed by the previous plat. Staff is <br />recommending approval. All of the lots are conforming as to area, width, and hardcover, they are not <br />creating any new lots but simply adjusting various boundary lines. They received one comment from an <br />area resident who objects primarily to the notation on the plat that shows a concrete driveway as they feel <br />it may be a bit misleading and be labeled “concrete” as it is part of Walters Port Lane. Staff included 2 <br />conditions, the first to ensure the City Engineer approves the drainage plan and the second is in regards to <br />landscaping between the two parallel driveways. He noted the driveways are not parallel until one gets <br />well into the lot so it is probably appropriate to remove that as a condition. <br />Eric Vogstrom, 2710 Pence Lane, clarified the distance between the driveways is anywhere from 10-14 <br />feet. He noted they spent a lot of time making this conforming, cleaned up a lot of lot lines, and he thinks <br />it is a pretty good plan. <br />Kirchner opened the public hearing at 6:34 p.m. <br />Kirchner closed the public hearing at 6:34 p.m. <br />Ressler moved, Bollis seconded, to approve LA21-000061 Eric Vogstrom, 2709 Walters Port Lane, <br />Preliminary Plat as applied with Staff’s recommendation and removing the provision of trees to <br />buffer the parallel driveways. VOTE: Ayes 7, Nays 0. <br />City Council <br />Exhibit B <br />LA21-61
