MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, August 28, 2006 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />(#06-3219, Edson Spencer, Continued) <br />Ordway stated originally these two lots were separated and were combined by Mr. Spencer and that <br />Mr. Spencer is now requesting the two lots be split again. <br />Murphy stated approval of the plat does not require a decision on the road. <br />Turner stated the resolution before the Council says the existing roadway shall be widened to 20 feet and <br />would need to be modified if the Council approves a width other than the 20 feet. <br />Gaffron stated this is a preliminary plat resolution and recommended that if the property owners are not <br />required to widen the roadway to 20 feet , that language should be deleted. Gaffron noted another <br />resolution would be before the Council once the applicants request final plat approval. <br />Murphy moved, Peterson seconded, Application #06-3219, Edson Spencer, 1135 Spring Hill Road, <br />to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 5500, a Resolution granting preliminary approval of a Class II <br />subdivision for property located at 1135 Spring Hill Road, with the roadway being left at 17 feet. <br />Sansevere indicated he would be opposed to that motion since it does not require the property owners to <br />increase the width of the roadway at some point in the future. Sansevere inquired how long the driveway <br />is. <br />Grant noted the roadway is approximately three-tenths of a mile in length. <br />VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 1, Sansevere Opposed. <br />12. #06-3220 JULE AND ELIZABETH HANNAFORD, 1220 BRACKETTS POINT ROAD - <br />VARIANCE <br />Jule and Elizabeth Hannaford, Applicants , were present. <br />Curtis stated the applicants are proposing to remove the existing deck and construct a new deck which <br />will be 4.5 feet closer to the lake , have a lower profile when viewed form the lake , and become more <br />functional for the property owners.
