MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD MARCH 21, 1988 01256 MWCC CONTINUED Mr. Carlson noted that he objected to the basis of the sewer per as and as a property owner he is not satisfied that an alternative method to drainwater being passed into the sanitary sewer has been answered properly which is unfair to the residents of Orono. Chairman Kelley stressed the importance of adhering the the minimum 2-5 acre lot standards in order to minimize the need for sanitary sewer around the lake. 121E ESTATE OF RUSH EMITS 387 ORONO ORCHARD HOW SURDIVISION THIRD REVIVE This application was tabled per applicant's request. #1223 JOHN WALDRON 1951 CONCORDIA STRMT CONDITIONAL USX PM WT a VARIANCE RVOXAL *NOR COUNCIL FOR REVIEW OF REVISED PROPOSAL John Waldron was present for this matter. Gaffron explained the revised proposal for grading, which would cut approximately t - 7 F of the lakeshore yard down to a depth of 3' below .,o existing surface. He also reviewed the options to restore the lakeshore bank. Staff finds that from both the short and long-term lake water quality standpoints, there would be no significant impact relative to other options. From a stability standpoint, soma options are better than others. From a visual standpoint, the revised proposal will have less of an impact than the original deep walk -out cut proposal. Bellows felt that because of the existing grade, a 3' cut would create more drainage into the lake. She suggested another relnt4 !ely inexpensive stabilization option that in similar to the cribbing system using posts and c.,ncrete footings, and then completed with plantings. Chairman Kelley felt that the 3' cut would cause other problems, however, if the cut was allowed, it should be done along the entire width of the property. He was more in favor of stabilizing the bai.. by other means. Bellows stated that she too was in favor of stabilizing the bank properly without the need for the 3' cut.
