To:Chair Peterson and Orono Planning Commission Members <br />Ron Moorse, City Administrator <br />From: <br />Date: <br />Subject: <br />Jeanne A. Mabusth. Building & Zoning Administrator <br />April 13. 1995 <br />#2007 Tony Eiden Company, 2800 Countryside Drive West - Conditional Use <br />Permit - Public Hearing <br />Pertinent Ordinance <br />Section 10.03. Subdivision 19 <br />List of Exhibits <br />A - <br />B - <br />C - <br />D - <br />E - <br />F - <br />G - <br />Application <br />Plat Map <br />Property Owners’ List <br />Weckman Memo 4/5/95 <br />Survey of Developed Lot <br />Topographic Map <br />Gustafson Report 4/13/95 <br />Description of Request <br />The applicant has begun to install an L-shaped berm between the shared lot lines of Lots <br />1 and 2. Block 2, Old Crystal Bay Road Addition. Both of the lots abut Watertown Road along <br />their north lot line. Review Exhibit F. The majority of the runoff from the east flows through <br />Lot 2 and eventually to Lot 1. The berm has been placed very close to the principal septic test <br />sites on both lots. Weckman asks in his memo, Exhibit D, to readjust placement of the berm <br />so that there is a 20 ’ setback adjacent to each drainfield site in order to provide enough area to <br />direct surface water away from the drainfields. Unfortunately, the current proposal directs all <br />runoff from the east between the house and the alternate septic site on Lot 1. The house on Lot <br />1 is a walkout design. The City is concerned that flooding problems will result with the current <br />proposal. <br />The City Engineer has inspected the site noting that if the drainage pattern proposed is <br />to continue that it would be necessary to create a swale between the house and the ftitore <br />drainfield sites to restrict flooding of the lower level of the residence. WeekmM asks for a ditch <br />along Watertown Road to redirect drainage. The Engineer is concerned that this would not work <br />because of the location of the remaining berms approved with the subdivision and also a <br />potential impact upon the City’s bike trail. The only other alternative avaUable would be to <br />redirect drainage along the shared lot lines of Lots 1 and 2 to Countryside Drive West.
