Sanitary Sewer and Municipal Water Connection The property is located within the MUSA boundary allowing for sanitary sewer connection. The developer will be responsible for providing sewer and water to the site. Sewer is located along Highway 12 and will be installed along Willow Drive to the development. Estimates for sewer and water connection are approximately $9,250 per unit, not including the construction cost. Easements along the streets may not be required for the public utilities if the roads are developed as public streets. The City Engineer has reviewed the preliminary water and sewer plans and has determined capacity exists to allow the 49 additional units as proposed previously. In Mr. Kellogg's comments (Exhibit H) he has noted that the proposed temporary bypass lift station along T.H. 12 needs to be in place before sewer service can be provided to the Willow View site. the proposed water main shown between Lots 12 and 13, Block 3 should be extended westerly and tied into the 12-inch water main installed as part of the new Orono Middle School project. Final sewer and water plans shall be reviewed and approved prior to final review. Issues for discussion 1. 2. 3. 4. Due to the topography of the site, and grading that can occur on site, it appears the property could sustain a the development. The main issue for Council discussion is the lezoning of the property from RR-IB (2 acre) to (R-IA) one acre. If a rezoning is approved, direction to the developer on the size and number of lots and the conditional use permit to develop as a PRD is appropriate. The development would serve as a buffer between the lower density residential development to the north and east vs. the oth-;r land use types to the south and west. Should the development density include land dedicated for purposes other than open space? Park dedication fee shall be equivalent to 8% of the value of the lot with a ma.ximum of $4,900 per lot or a minimum of $2,900 per lot. The Code does address land dedication for park space rather than a cash contribution. Trail development could potentially reduce the cash portion of the park dedication. Detailed grading and drainage plans shall be provided with application for final approval. Several berms are proposed throughout the development and many lots will require regrading for raising the basement level of the homes. Standard setbacks for the R-1A (1 acre) zoning district are the following: Lot Area Lot Width Front Yard Setback Side Yard Setback Rear Yard Setback Side Adjacent to Street 1 acre 140 feet 35 feet 10 feet 30 feet 35 feet
