.MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />1\'IEETING HELD ON JUNE 10, 1996 <br />(#6 -#2136 Greenfield Corporation -Continued) <br />Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />Hurr noted that the lot width variances, by not extending the cul-de-sac, would save <br />good building sites. <br />(#7) REQUEST FOR SE"WER, JOHN :MARESH, 2085 SIXTH A VENUE <br />NORTH/1095 BRO\VN ROAD NORTH <br />Mr. Maresh was not present during the discussion of this agenda item. <br />Gaffron said the applicant has requested consideration for sewering as part of the :NfUSA <br />amendment or in addition to the Lakeview Terrace subdivision. _ _, <br />Kelley asked about the west side of North Brown, specifically, the Salem Court area, in <br />refe~ence to sewering. Gaffron said this area has mound type septic systems. <br />Gaffron informed Callahan that the property in question consists of a vacant 2-acre parcel <br />abutting Brown Road and a 3-acre homestead parcel abutting Co Rd 6. <br />Goetten asked how the septic was approved for the site without an alternate site. <br />Gaffron said the sites had been approved in 1988, but a new evaluator, who looked at the <br />property in 1996, did not think there were sites actually available. Gaffron said this <br />would need to be reviewed further. <br />Kelley said he felt it was a question of management. <br />Callahan noted for purposes of this particular request that the property be placed on a list <br />for consideration for future sewering. When the MUSA is then granted, the City can see <br />what might be done for this property. <br />Kelley said if the North Brown and Salem Court areas want sewering, it would help to <br />defer costs. Callahan said this would not be decided at this time as there were no sewer <br />units available. <br />Callahan said with 5 acres, he found it hard to believe that there would only be one site <br />for a septic system and asked Staff to check it out. Gaffron noted the existing system <br />was not working. The applicant has asked for a building permit. Maresh has agreed t~ <br />upgrade as necessary. Gaffron said the applicant may want to hold off if the Council <br />wants to go ahead with sewering. Callahan said he was not willing to give a.sewer unit if <br />septic sites are available and asked that Staff place Maresh on a list for possible sewering <br />in the future. <br />7
