MINUTES OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING Monday, August 10, 2015 7:00 o'clock pm. 7. #15-3763 CHRISTOPHER W. BOLLIS, 200-350 STUBBS BAY ROAD NORTH — PRELiMINARY PLAT (continued) Printup stated he is okay with the preliminary plat concept and that he likes the idea of the City not getting involved with the road situation and having the two parties discuss it and hopefully work it out. Printup moved to direct Staff to draft an approval resolution for Application No. 15-3763, Christopher Bollis, 200-350 Stubbs Bay Road North, granting of preliminary plat. Printup stated he would encourage ongoing conversations between the applicant and the residents about the road, the fine-tuning of the south cul-de-sac, the three -party easement, drainage, grades, etc., as well as talking it through with Staff Gaffron stated he would bring back a preliminary plat resolution that spells out all the requirements for final plat approval, which will probably bring up topics that have not been discussed specifically tonight for Council's review and consideration to make sure all issues are covered. Gaffron indicated Mr. MacKinnon has requested that as they are constructing the road, construction traffic should come off of Stubbs Bay Road, which is one of a handful of items that needs to be included. Levang seconded the motion. Walsh stated he would like it contingent upon a maintenance agreement being reached. Walsh stated he hopes that gets resolved before final plat. As it relates to the septic site on Lot 5, Walsh stated he would like to see no longer than a 2 -year temporary easement, which would end the minute one of those two lots are sold. McMillan stated she would like Staff to bring the resolution back in 30 days, which will allow some time to work out some of these issues. Gaffron stated that would be the first Council meeting on September 14. Bollis stated he would like it sooner than that because he has obligations to live up to and that he has been dealing with the access piece for a long time. Bollis stated in his view there is a simple solution for the road and that a number of the documents have already been submitted. McMillan stated there are enough issues for Staff to deal with and that 30 days is reasonable. Gaffron noted the 120 -day time limit on the application goes to the middle of October. Printup stated he can sympathize with the issues the neighbors are dealing with and with the applicants wanting to move forward. Printup stated normally the resolutions come back to the Council within a two-week time frame. Printup stated the Council can revisit it then. McMillan asked if would like to keep his motion as is. Printup indicated he does. Printup stated if there are still outstanding issues, the matter can be tabled for two weeks. McMillan asked if Council Member Levang is okay with her second. Page 19 of 32
