MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON SEPTEMBER 18, <br />(#18 - #2070 L E Rriicggeman Compinics - Ct>nt»nucd) <br />Gaflfron que$^ioned whether the driveway across the top portion of the property was <br />induded in the calculations Brueg^eman said the parcel contained 49,680 s f He <br />eliminated the area within the 75' zone, netting 28,000 25% of that figure equals 7000 <br />s f and took off the driveway' for a net anKxint of4500 s.f <br />Peterson quefiiomd the ability of the property to have two homes on one lot. <br />Brueggeman said tNs is consistent with the hontes in the neighborhood at this time which <br />average 7 to 8 acres with the largest at 1*1/2 acres These two lots would be 1 0 acre <br />and 9 acre in si/e <br />Rowlette said she saw this application as an opportunity to gain a 2*acre lot in the 2-acre <br />zoning district adding that as a single txuldii^ she, h wcKild be beautiful. The applicant's <br />concern is with property value and overbuilding for the homes in the neighbort <br />Peterson said he liked tl» proposal but questioned whether it should be two lots when it b <br />one to begin with. Lindquist noted that other lots built on were I acre in size. <br />Hawn asked if the adjacent homes in the neighborhood were connected to sewer. Galiron <br />said sewer was available to ail of the homes but not necessarily connected. <br />Hawn asked if any other lots were combined in the neighborhood. Thoe was one other <br />lakeshore lot that was combined and is a 100* lot. The rest of the lakeshore lots were <br />individual lots. <br />Brueggeman said this was an unusual case with 4 builditigs on 3 lots adding that the <br />proposal would clean up the site Peterson commented that the cabins have been directed <br />to be removed anyways regardless of the result of this proposal. <br />Gafiron noted that the property has existed as a non-conforming use When the sewer <br />came available to the property, the non-conformity was brought to a head. Maeser is <br />looking at the options available. Gafiron added that the deadline of June 1995 for <br />connecting the house to sewer has yet to be dealt with. <br />Brueggeman said the rights of Maeser need to be considered by the Commission and <br />Council, which he felt has not been done. It is his desire to solve the problems. <br />Gafiron said the property is 3 separate tax parcels. In the sewered zone, it is required to <br />look at each separately as to their buildabiiity. The current standards do not allow these <br />lots to be buildable.
