Knutson <br />LQCAT I ON: N. \·/. Corner of County Road 84 and Stubbs l1::Jy Road <br />Present Land Use: 1/ ac.:i nt e:<cept for one home and accessory <br />bui ldinCJS <br />Present Zoning: R-IC <br />Proposed Zoning: LR-IA, 2 /1cres <br />Proposed Lan'.! Use: Pre! iminary Plat for 4 lots on 8.9 acres <br />STAFF f-{EVIE\•/: Tho !'lannirHJ Conrnission recommended that the Kermit l<nutson sub- <br />division of 4 lots be approved with a variance for Lot 4 which is I .45 acres. <br />Before any approval is given on this subdivision, tho fol lO\'ling 4 factors should <br />be clarified: <br />o,v <br />(I) The pre! iminary plat canno·t-sh0\'1 property Jry any of the <br />County right-of-way or within the lake as lots. <br />(2) The hardships must be established for grarYf-ing the var- <br />iance to allow,, subdivision of 1.45 acres. <br />(3) The question of non-riparian rights for Lots 3 and 4 must <br />be establlshed. The petitioner sug~Jested that they would <br />al low a pub I ic casement tor the use of the property that <br />they 01m along Stubbs l.:lay if common dockin,:1 privileges <br />would be al lowed for Lots I through 4. The L.M.C.D. sug- <br />gested ordinance is enclosed, but this ordinance has never <br />been adopted by Orono. <br />(4) A street grade profile has been submitted to the Engineer, <br />and his report should be avai !able at Monday night's Coun- <br />ci I ineetins. His comments should be incor:porated into any <br />approva I. <br />The question of Park dedication hinges on the Council's decision regarding <br />Jn-rtpari~n rights. 14y discussions with the pe1 itioner included my sugges~lon <br />that perhaps the Ciiy ,1ould consider common dockinq privileges it the remainder <br />of the lakeshore pro;Jerty 1,as dedicated to ·Pie City. The Park Commission was <br />approac11ed with this ide.J ~ind they didn't si"cm to ·t-hink that this property would <br />be that valuable for park purposes. They su;gestsd that the land to be dedicated <br />should be either a strip illong Stubbs Bay Roa'i or rJlong the west property line to <br />al low connection from Count·y Road 84 and Stubbs t3ay 1,iih the Luce Line Trai I. <br />DM/ig
