ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES FOR MARCH 15,1999 (92444 Brian and Susan SctMbler, continuad) Schebler stated a lot of hardcover has already been removed, with the deck being designed to allow the water to seep into the ground. Schebler indicated he will continue to reduce hardcover on this lot wherever possible. Schroeder commented that most of what Schebler has removed has not been counted in the hardcover figures. Mrs. Schebler stated they were told they could have a deck on the property. Smith commented that it appears the Planning Commission Is recommending that the deck be removed. Mrs. Schebler stated that they could perhaps remove the rock around the house. Smith inquired whether this application should be tabled to see if additional hardcover can be removed. Schebler stated the driveway probably cannot be reduced. Lindquist commented he has a problem with using gravel as a tradeoff. Weinberger remarked there may be some confusion over the fact that there are other times when garages and decks are granted, but there is nothing in the code that states that a garage or a deck would be granted simply because a lakeshore property is without one. Schebler remarked he would be willing to have this application tabled and meet with City Staff in an effort to reduce hardcover. There were no public comments. Schroeder moved, Smith seconded, to table Application #2444,1354 Rest Point Circle, to allow the Applicants time to reduce legitimate hardcover by a minimum of 900 square feet. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#6) #2451 CHRIS PIERSON, ON BEHALF OF BRYSONS/JOHNSONS, 650,660, 670,680 BID ISLAND, LOT LINE REARRANGEMENT, 8:03 p.m. • 8:22 p.m. Chris Pierson, on behalf of the Applicants, was present. Weinberger stated the Apolicant is requesting a lot line rearamgement and lot combination for lots located at 650^0-670-680 Big Island. The lots are currently three separate seasonal residences on four tax parcels that are to be combined into two parcels. The Applicants are proposing to combine Lots 3,4 and one-half of Lot 5 to create one tax parcel on Big Island, and the center lot would be split and added to the 650 lot. Weinbeiger remarked the main issues to address would be the future of the existing cabin located on Lot 5. Fire Code does not allow a structure to exist this dose to the property line. There are also exists some zoning code requirements which would require variances to te granted to allow a residence to be located this dose to a lot line, and a conditional use permit would be necessary to allow a guest cabin. Currently City Code does not allow two prindpal residences to be located Page 7 F
