r MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 21, 1995 (#8 - #2046 Lakeview Golf - Continued) Gafifron repeated that the application was to constnict a storage building and to rebuild the 15th and 16th fiirways on the SE comer of the golf course It was noted that the 1974 survey did not include an existing storage building or applicant’s house, which is a separate homestead property. It also does not show the RLS correctly. Gaffron asked for an ted survey to be completed as part of the approval. The storage building is proposed at 45x 100* in size to be located in the northwest quadrant, 640' from North Arm Road, and visible from both North Arm Drive West and CoRd 19. The building would exceed the 3,000 s.f of building limit at 4,500 s.f The code allows for an accessory structure on a 9 acre parcel of 3000 s.f with 6000 s f maximum for total of all accessory structure footprint areas Gaffron noted that an amendment has been drafred to allow 200 s f of accessory' structure for each additional acre. 17 acres would be required to support the accessory structure under that amendment A concern with the proposal is the open view of the accessory structure. It is anticipated that none of the existing mature trees would be removed to accomodate this building. The building will be an average of 16.5' in height of a pole bam type. Screening is recommended along with color of materials to be chosen to blend into the scenery. The relocation of fairways #15 and #16 will require movement of 18(X) cubic yards of fill within the site. As part of a sketch plan, a 2 acre lot subdivision is also proposed. The applicant said the proposal would require carving out of a hill in order to create a view of the green on the second shot Gaffron said the City Engineer had no problem with the grading. If it is approv ed. Staff asks that the applicant adher to Best Management Practices in regards to erosion and runoff control. Revegetation would occur as soon as possible in order to play the holes the next year. Peterson asked what color was proposed for the storage building The applicant said a green or earth tone would be attractice Smith asked why such a large structure was required. The applicant said the amount of equipment, such as mowers, back hoe, loaders, mulchers, has increased over the years and need to be stored The majority jf the equipment is now outside. It was noted there would be no access to this structure Smith asked if the smaller storage building could be remov ed. She was informed that the other building houses the golf carts. Smith also inquired about screening, which is also proposed. Peterson said a CUP to move the fill around should not create any problems as it is not on the roadway and also saw no problem with the size of the structure. Peterson suggested the applicant work with Staff on screening.
