Bastyr - There again it would vary in some cases 4-6 feet would be sufficient and in <br />other areas maybe a size 8 feet. Also plantings above and below that - <br />all dependent upon the purpose it would serve. <br />Man - The loop nearest to you (Bastyr) who owns that property? <br />Bastyr - That would be a common ownership-owned by the people in the development. <br />Each household owning i/20th of the common spac ^ - as well they have <br />common space at the lowest end of the hill. <br />Man - Is that land in addition to the 3.3 acres to the lot? <br />Bastyr - Thats considered in the 3.3 acres. <br />Man - So then they really don’t have a 3.3 acre lot. <br />Bastyr - Not the lots themselves, but when you consider the open space and common <br />area it would be 3.3 acres and that does exclude the 6 acres of wetlands. <br />Man - Can they put playgrounds and tennis courts in the open space. <br />Fritzler - Again I can foresee one thing, that if this becomes common property very <br />soon that the people forget that is common property and they want it <br />treated as private property. I can relate this to the Circle in Casco <br />Point which is public property but everyone treats it as private <br />property. Parking for the derelicts, the boats that get stored during <br />the wintertime, and then the police department still gets calls on who is <br />going to take care of their cwn private little whims. <br />Woman - when will you decide on this? <br />Goetten - If there are no other comments, 1 would like to close the public hearing <br />now and move on to discussion among the Planning Commission Members. <br />You are welcome to stay. <br />Rovegno - Maybe I have a question that Gloria can help us with. You were here when <br />this was rezoned to 5 acres. <br />McDonald - Yes. <br />Rovegno - It appears that alc.ig Bayside Road rJiat these houses have been here for <br />awhile on small lots relative to the zoning district. Can you tell the <br />P.C. how the decision was made to zone that 5 acres and for example not to <br />zone south of Bayside to 5 acres whicli is 2 acres. Half the 1 DUses... <br />McDonald - Its very diffi cult to take three houses in a row that are an acre a piece <br />and try to make them into a five acre plot a piece, thats an obvious <br />answer. Secondly, there is a need for a hobby farm type of thing in a <br />quasi-agricu 1 ture in Orono. This was a need and it was recognized and <br />all these people are good examples of the need. Ah.. The Met Council <br />when you do have small lots, you do need sewer and services, and looking <br />at that (the proposed plan ) i t does look like a St. Louis Park or Plymouth <br />or where you have development in row houses, even though you’ve got all <br />that common area. You lose the effect of your horse and 3 1/2 chickens <br />and 1 goat , whatever your allowed out there, which is what people want— <br />Ii <br />4 <br />4
