MINUTES OF ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 26, 1990 <br />Bernhardson said that it is because of that possibility that <br />the City is suggesting that Mr. Fatten proceed with a PRD. <br />Mr. Fatten advised that he had not received staff's recent <br />memo pertaining to the 50* corridor along the east property line. <br />Acting Mayor Callahan suggested tabling this application to <br />allow Mr. Fatten an opportunity to review the most recent <br />information. <br />Mr. Pa'-ten said that he would like the opportunity to <br />address the Council. He pointed out that he is not creating a <br />new lot, he is only proposing a lot line rearrangement. ^ He said <br />that there is only one logical building site on the Reiersgord <br />property to the east. He said that placing the corridor against <br />the east lot line would crowd that building site. He said that <br />moving the outlot over 41* would provide more room. Mr. Farten <br />also said that the topography near the lot line is steep and <br />there are many mature trees existing. Mr. Farten said that it is <br />not his responsibility to provide access to people that already <br />have satisfactory access. <br />Bernhardson noted that the Planning Commission did not <br />recommend that the City take any underlying utility and road <br />easements for the 20’ porth/south outlot. <br />Acting Mayor Callahan asked why the City is not asking for <br />more of a dedication than 20* and why the normal easements are <br />not being dedicated? <br />Gaffron said that the Planning Commission recommended the.r. v. <br />narrow outlot be used to serve Lot 2 because they wanted to avoid <br />creating a flag lot and the need for a lot width variance. <br />Acting Mayor Callahan indicated that it may be more <br />favorable to grant a variance than to have to condemn land at a <br />future date. <br />CounciImember Nettles asked if there wouldn't be a need to <br />upgrade the north/south access once three lots are developed? <br />Bernhardson said that ownership of Lot 2 may change and <br />there may not be land in Lot 1 to accommodate a road. <br />Bernhardson said that currently Mr. Reiersgord has an easement <br />across the south property line of Lot 1 to access his property, <br />which brings a third lot into consideration. Bernhardson said <br />that City is recommending that Mr. Farten proceed with a 3-lot <br />PRD subdivision with a substantial access to the north. Jowevet, <br />Mr. Farten has indicated that he would prefer to proceed as the <br />Planning Commission recommended. <br />Acting Mayor Callahan said that because underlying road <br />easements may exist, does not mean that a 50* road will be <br />immediately constructed.
