minutes OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING Moadaj, October 22.2001 7:00 o'clock p.n. PuMk stated as far as the design of the house is concerned. Item No. 3 in Staffs Report indicates that any changes to the approved plan would require a new variance application. Puzak requested that Item 3 be clarified to read as follows: “any major amendment to the site sketch which would increase hardcover or increase lakeshore setback shall require a new variance application". Weinberger stated the language included in the motion subject to Staff review and appro\'al would give Staff the opportunity to do that. Weinberger stated If Staff feels the revised house plan is beyond Council’s approval, they would bring that application back before the Council. Flint suggested the Applicant work with Staff on drafting a resolution for Council approval. Puzak inquired what would happen if an easement is not obtained from Franklin. Sansevere stated he would then need to come back to the Council with his house design and a workable septic system design. Nygard stated this application would not be finally approved until the next Council meeting, so if there are changes that have occurred, the Applicant can address them at the next meeting. Flint stated the application was not in a form that could be finalized and approved tonight, Franklin inquired what steps he would need to follow in order to grant an easement. Weinberger stated they would need to determine the appropriate location where the sewer line would enter the property and a legal description, along with Franklin ’s signature providing an easement to the public. Gaffron stated Staff does have standard language for an easement, but someone will need to develop an easement description, which is the most time-consuming and difficult part of granting an easement Puzak inquired how long that process would take. Gaffron stated that really is not up to the City to determine. PAGE 32
