MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL/VNNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON JULY 17. 1995 SKETCH PLAN REVIEWS (#11) #2035 MICHAEL HILBELINK, 2760 WATERTOWN ROAD • SKETCH PLAN^t'BDIVTSION/CONCEPTUAL REVIEW Mabusth rqx>rted that the plan is for a 4-lot subdivision of the former Rosch property at the northeast quadrant of Old Crystal Bay Road and Watertown Road The parcel is 9- 1/2 acres in size Access for three lots is proposed via a private road and cul-de-sac. The applicant is asking for lot 4 to be accessed from an existing driveway on Watertown Road. Mabusth noted that during the review of the Peterman Addition to the immediate east, the City did not seek access to this property Access to this property would be resolved with future division The proposal recommends a cul-de-sac with a private road and a single curb cut for lot 4 from the south Additional concern is also for the bike trail on the west side of the property Conceptual plans are for the septic to be located in this area. The Applicant met with Gerhardson and Cook, who said the trail would run 500-600* down the length of the property with a 15’ easement and cutting back to the road side of the trees Mabusth said this should not impact the septic site but noted the need for a 20’ separation. Mabusth commented on the design of road with a 60' wide road and 120’ cul-de-sac. The code asks for 50’ wide road aiwl 100' cul-de-sac Mabusth a^ed the Planning Commission for their views on additional curb cut. The drainage is.sues need to be addressed al.so A berm funnels water along Watertown Road. A c vert built in 1987 was installed beneath e.xisting access drive to lot 4. The applicant commented that two old drain tiles were found on Lots 1 and 2 draining from Goldenview to the east. Mabusth said this should be investigated further with the review of this subdivision Lindquist commented that the access for Lot 4 seemed to be the logical choice but did recommend the private road to be 50' wide with a 100' cul-de-sac. It was noted that there is no problem with sight lines and distance for the 40 mph Watertown Road. Mabusth said no action is required at this time and recommended the applicant proceed with filing preliminary plans and need for complete septic testing and soil delineation requirements.
