C; • CITY'of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 5434 9. Because the subdivision results in additional impervious area on the property, a storm water management system is proposed that includes vegetated swales and rain gardens to provide water quality treatment and storage for rate control. The proposed storm water release off-site from this system will be less than the existing condition. Easements and maintenance covenants will be required to ensure the permanent viability of this system. The property will also be subject to the Storm Water and Drainage Trunk Fee, established by the 2005 fee schedule as $4,160 per acre for the %2 acre zone. 10. The proposed retaining wall to accommodate the driveway within Outlot B will be in excess of 4' in height and requires an engineered design. The applicant has agreed to reduce the visual impacts of this wall by using dark -colored earth -tone block and ivy plantings. It would be appropriate that a covenant be established requiring permanent maintenance of the ivy planting. 11. All proposed lots will contain suitable area meeting all established setback, hardcover and lot coverage requirements to allow the construction of single family residences without the need for variances. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the City Council of the City of Orono hereby grants Preliminary Plat Approval for Loren R. Fritz for a 5 -lot plat per the Preliminary Plat survey/drawing designated as Sheet C6-1 by Loucks Associates dated 2-2-06 and attached hereto as part of Exhibit B, subject to the following conditions: 1. Lot Standards. Buildable envelopes including approved setbacks for the two new back lots (Lots 3 and 4) are as shown on Sheets C2-1 and CM, the Preliminary Site Plan and Preliminary Grading Plan attached as part of Exhibit B. For both Lots .3 and 4, the northerly yard is the front yard, the southerly yard is the rear yard, and the easterly and westerly yards are side yards. For Lot 1, by definition the easterly yard is front, the westerly yard is rear, the southerly yard is a side yard, and the northerly yard is a side street yard. However, because of its highly visible corner lot status at the intersection of two major County roads, Lot 1 shall be further limited in that no principal or accessory structures shall be allowed within 20 feet of the north lot line. Accessory structures may be placed on all Lots according to City standards except as noted for Lot 1. Page 3 of 9
