MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, August 19,2002 <br />6:30 o ’clock p.m. <br />(^02-2813 MARK WELCH, Continued) <br />Mr. Welch to redesign and meet those. <br />Mabusth reiterated that the applicant not exceed the 660 s.f and maintain a 50’ setback, and <br />asked her to have the surveyor mark the cave depth and distance from the lake on the survey the <br />next time around. <br />Ms. Welch felt she had enough to go on. <br />Rahn still questioned the overhang status. <br />Mabusth pointed out that if a structure meets setback, it is a legal noncncroachmcnt if the caves <br />overhang 1 1/2’; however, since this structure does not fall within the legal setback of 75’, the <br />overhangs arc counted into the equation. <br />Smith moved, Fritzicr seconded, to table Application #02-2813, Mark Welch, 3625 North <br />Shore Drive, to allow the applicant time for redesign purposes. V'OTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />(#6) #02-2814 WILLI AM AND SANDRx\ KEEGAN, 2707 WALTERS PORT LANE, <br />VARIANCE 8:41 p.m.-8:48 p.m. <br />William and Sandra Keegan, Applicants, were present. <br />Bottenberg explained that the applicants have requested a side adjacent street setback variance <br />to construct an attached garage. The three stall attached garage, 960 s.f., will be on the south <br />side of the residence. She continued that in 2000, the applicants had applied for a building <br />permit to construct the three stall attached garage, which was granted without need for a variance <br />but has since expired. Bottenberg stated that in 2002 the applicants submitted the same plans to <br />obtain another permit and were told they need a side yard adjacent variance. <br />Bottenberg stated that staff recommends approval of the side yard adjacent setback variance to <br />construct an attached garage. Staff also suggested the Planning Commission consider allow ing a <br />turnaround to be constructed with the leftover 208 s.f. of hardcover available, since Walters Port <br />Lane is such a narrow private road. <br />Smith indicated that she had no difficulty supporting the application and felt it a good idea to <br />include the turnaround area as part of the application. <br />Mabusth agreed, suggesting that even part of the existing pavement be left for additional parking, <br />but she encouraged the applicants to save the mature trees. <br />PAGE l?of28
