'» ••, <br />MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CTrY COUNCIL. <br />MEETING HELD ON JULY 14,1997 <br />(#5 - #2248 David and Jodi Rahn - Continued) <br />Kell^ asked for clarification on the hardcover calculations of an incre^e fi’ora 9% to <br />19% in the 0-75* setback. He was informed that the calculations do not include a <br />drivev.ay or potential garage. There is currently no hardcover in the 75-250’ setback and <br />the hardcover noted is the house footprint only. KeUey said a driveway and garage <br />inevitable and would need to know the calculations for them and what amount would be <br />added in the 0-75’ where h leads to the home. Jabbour noted that the application is ^ <br />cnfitled to 25% in the 75-250' setback. Kelley questioned what percentage would be m <br />the flood plain. Rahn s^d the garage would not be below the 931.5' elevation and no <br />variance would be required for a garage. Van Zomeren agreed that no vanance would be <br />required. <br />Kelley said he has never turned do^/n an application for a two-car garage no.ing the <br />necessity for garages in this area but felt the calculations should be included. He <br />questioned a sidewalk leading to the residence. Peterson questioned the need for the <br />calculation since it is not included in the proposal. <br />Rahn indicated that he is allowed 1500 s.f of structure outside the 0-75* and as much as <br />2200 s.f with the size of the lot. <br />Jabbour asked the applicant how he plans on walking to the hou^. The applicant ^ <br />questioned whether a walkway is required. Rahn said he has no intention of putting in a <br />sidewalk. Jabbour indicated that one would eventually be needed. R^ said he uses the <br />grass area now and the decldng and entry are included in the calculations. He current^ <br />parks on the clearing on top of the hillside and there is no established driveway. <br />’Goetten questioned why the residence cannot be pulled back. Rahn said the residence ^ <br />would then be located in the flood plain. He said he has space for 1900 s.f in the 75-250' <br />- setback. <br />Kelley asked Staff if 25% hardcover allowed for the 75-250* setbwk includes land in the <br />flood plain. He was informed by Gaffiron and Vm Zomeren tiiat it did. <br />Jabbour noted the structure could be a slab on grade without a foundation. Jabbour said <br />he would make his approval contingent on no additional variances allowed in the future <br />and ary further improvements adhering to standards in the zoning code. <br />Gaffion questioned with hardcover shown in the 0-75', whether this amount should be <br />subtracted fi’om that allowed elsewhere. He felt it should be. Jabbour cited an e^^ple <br />where tins has been done in the past. Gaffiron indicated that with 2000 s.f total <br />it would leave 1000 s.f for any future improvemems. Jabbour said that was a good idea. <br />Rahn agreed to comply with this request <br />L
