MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, May 16,2005 <br />6:00 o’clock p.m. <br />addition to the 3S-foot buffer for any structure. GafTi%>n inquired whether this structure could be set <br />further back. <br />GafTron noted he would need to speak with the City Attorney on whether this structure and/or property <br />would fell under the wetland moratorium. <br />Carlson stated there are wetlands on both sides of the structure and that there would be issues if they are <br />required to tdd 20 feet on either side of the building. <br />Bremer suggested a condition of approval could be to insure that this structure does not fell under the <br />wetland moratorium. <br />Jurgens stated in his opinion it is important to know exactly where the wetland is located and suggested a <br />new delineation be completed. Jurgens inquired whether the survey is correct as it relates to the <br />elevations. Jurgens stated if the courtyard is at 950*, a considerable amount of fill would be required <br />around the structure. <br />Carlson stated the survey is accurate and that the overhead is merely an artist’s rendering. Carlson <br />pointed out they are constructing the structure into the grade. <br />Jim McNeil, Architect, indicated very little fill would be necessary. <br />Jurgens stated he would like to see that illustrated on the survey and a wetland delineation conducted. <br />Carlson stated the wetlands have not changed from the time the house was constructed. <br />Jurgens indicated he would also like some limitations placed on the car wash. <br />Carlson stated the car wash could drain into a holding tank to avoid runoff into the wetland or drainage to <br />the septic system. <br />Fritzler indicated he does not view this as a hardship given the size of the structure and that he has <br />concerns regarding the future use of this structure. Fritzler stated the property owner could store his <br />vehicles off site. Fritzler stated he has concerns with a portion of the structure being buried and that he <br />would prefer a structure that is not oversized. Fritzler inquired how the square footage of a lot is <br />determined.
