i MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 16. 1996 (#14 - #2104 B. Scott Ball - Continued) Gafi&on continued that the proposal calls for lot area, lot width, and aven^ lakeshore setback variances. The property consists of.88 acres in the 2-acre zoning district. The property does not meet the 200' lot width requirement with 180' width and 163’ at the 75' line. The 75' setback is met. The proposal is for a conforming 30' side setback. The hardcover needs to be ac^usted sli^tly to meet the 25% limit. Gafifron reponed that the existing house is located all in front of the average lakeshore setback line. The proposed house would be located with a slight encroachment of that line but has no impact on lake views eigoyed by the neighboring properties. Gaffion noted that the new plan has not yet been reviewed by the City Engineer. The garage proposed at 938' would need to contoured to the 940* elevation. Three feet of fill would be required to the basonent level to bring the elevation from 932.5 ’ to 935’ to meet the flood plain requirements. The fill would need to come up to the driveway. GaffixHi said the City files show a historic concern with the drainage to the neighboring property to the east. This will be reviewed by the Engineer so as not to impact the neighbors. Gaffion said the Engineer’s review will occur prior to the application going before the Council.. Stickney noted that there was very little slope or elevation change to the proposal. Lindquist moved, Hawn seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2104 with the hardcover meeting the 25% allowed, the drainage and grading plans to be reviewed and approved by the Engineer prior to final Council action. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. SKETCH PLAN REVIEW (#15) #2103 ORONO HOCKEY BOOSTERS^ INC.. 1025 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD NORTH - CONCEPTUAL PLAN REVIEW Mabusth noted that the agenda item was for conceptual review not requiring any action. Present were Mark Engebretson, president of the ()rono Hockey Boosters, and Ted Rozeboom, architect for the ice arena. The land under consideration for the ice arena is a 4.4 acre parcel owned by the school district. The school district has not legally combined all of their owned parcels and have buildings and uses that expand from one parcel to another. A lease period of35-55 years is proposed with an option to purchase at any time. Mabusth said the major issue for this application is a land use matter as there is no exact fit for this use within the City code.
