ORONO R£GUIJUI COUNCIL MEETING HELD OCTOBER 8, 1990 <br />ZONING PILE 11555 - LANDSTAR, INC. CONTINUED <br />Mabusth reminds that this area received fill in 1978 and <br />1979 with the Lafayette Dredging project. Those areas are <br />outlined in Exhibit N. Proposed house sites are not in these <br />fill areas. Soil borings will be required with every building <br />permit to determine the types of foundations to be installed. <br />Mr. MacKinnon replied that many of these concerns had been <br />raised with the Planning Commission at previous meetings. <br />Because of that, additional engineering work had been done <br />including total recalculation of the watershed area. The Corps <br />of Engineers, the City Engineer and their engineer were all <br />involved. Even if you go to the 934' mark there is still dry <br />contiguous soils well in excess of the requirement. <br />Nettles asked Mabusth if the building envelope that is <br />separated by a drainageway is treated as a contiguous envelope. <br />She replied yes, because it is a drainageway and it is not <br />defined as a designated wetland. However, if someone wanted to <br />build on that site it would require a conditional use permit and <br />variance because you would be crossing over drainageways. The <br />drainageway would also require a 26' setback. The dry buildable, <br />ar* a calcs, are everything above the 932 elevation. The building <br />envelope is not the area calcs and is much more restrictive. <br />Nettles replied, "I don't see any way we can turn it down." <br />Goetten asked if we have a history on this property. <br />Mabusth replied the only history we have is the Old <br />Lafayette Dredging project and they filled in areas with the <br />dredged spoils. No building envelopes are shown within that <br />filled area, but there is nothing that says they could not build <br />in that area if they want to pay for the expensive foundation <br />that would have to be built. Mabusth states both she and the <br />applicant seek direction from the Council regarding the <br />improvement of Old Beach Road. <br />CounciImember Peterson asked, <br />issues?" <br />Isn't that two separate <br />Goetten replied not really because it all comes along with <br />the whole subdivision process. <br />Peterson states that if you are going to assess adjacent <br />property owners, they would also have to be notified. <br />Mabusth states that's why John Gerhardson was asked to <br />address this issue. <br />Goetten asked, "If the road would have to be repaired and <br />upgraded purely because of the fact that the developer is putting <br />in these houses if that is approved, then explain why the <br />adjacent propevty owners would have to pay for it."
