MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 21, 1981 Page 4 <br />O Applicant stated that he would remove approximately 6-8 <br />inches, or just until the original bottom was restored. <br />Hammerel moved to approve the conditional use permit for <br />maintenance dredging of Richard Ledstrom's wildlife pond <br />subject to the following findings and conditions: <br />1 - The pond is open water and is not supporting any <br />wetland vegetation therefore dredging would not <br />remove any existing assimilative capacity. <br />2 - With removal of culvert, there is no direct <br />flowage from the pond into the adjacent wetlands. <br />3 - The proposal would not increase pond size nor <br />reduce retention capacity. <br />4 - Application is "maintenance dredging". <br />Adams seconded. Vote: Ayes (6), Nays (0). <br />Applicants were not present. The Lundquists are the new <br />owners of the Mexican Inn in Navarre. The Mexican Inn was <br />never recognized with a formal conditional use permit and <br />staff has asked the owner to apply for the required permit. <br />Planning Commission found no problems. <br />Jabbour moved to approve the conditional use permit for <br />Joan Lundquist, owner of the Mexican Inn. <br />Hammerel seconded. Vote: Ayes (6), Nays (0). <br />Lachlan Reed and Dick Hassel, applicants attorney, were <br />present. Jabbour stated that he was surprised that the City <br />would accept an application that allowed expansion of a <br />non conforming structure in consideration of the Orono <br />Code and the recent State Supreme Court ruling. <br />Mabusth’advised Jabbour to consult Section 31.110 distin <br />guishing the differences in interpreting code for non- <br />conforming uses and non-conforming structures. <br />Dick Hassel explained that of the total 3.59 acres 1.93 is <br />excluded from the building envelope. He noted for the <br />Planning Commission that the actual increase in .hardcover <br />was 56 sf because of the existing hardcover the addition <br />would be placed on. <br />Rovegno suggested a trade off of hardcover to allow for <br />the additional hardcover. He questioned the existing <br />drainage or manhole in the west corner of the paved area. <br />m <br />LEDSTROM (CONT.) <br />JOAN LUNDQUIST <br />3416 Shoreline Dr. <br />Conditional Use <br />Permit <br />#650 <br />LACHLAN REED <br />1499 Brackett's <br />Point Road <br />Variance <br />#651 <br />Hassel stated that he could not conceive of a rcore accep­ <br />table method of drainage since the existing grade brings <br />all of the drainage on the west side to that manhole and to <br />nave it opened up and drain over the banks would create <br />extreme erosion problems which is not environmentally sound. <br />k
