MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, August 20, 2007 <br />6:00 o'clock p.m. <br />Stichney indicated he does have some experience with pervious pavers and that the pervious material <br />should be installed on level ground. Stichney suggested that the court yard area between the garages be <br />constructed with pervious pavers since that is a flatter, open area. <br />Curtis requested engineering specifications be provided to the City on the pervious pavers. <br />Paddock stated he would not be opposed to utilizing pervious pavers in the court yard area. <br />Stichney noted the pervious pavers need to be brushed or swept regularly to keep leaves off of it, and <br />that if the decks were constructed with the pervious pavers, it would require the removal of the deck <br />furniture and other items, which would not be necessary with the court yard area. <br />Kempf stated he is fine with that section being constructed out of pervious pavers rather than the patios <br />and sidewalks. <br />Rice moved, Kroeger seconded, to recommend approval of Application #07-3293, George Stickney <br />on behalf of Bruce Paddock, 1500 Bracketts Point Road, granting of a hardcover variance, subject <br />to the condition that the court yard area between the garages be constructed with pervious pavers. <br />VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />NEW BUSINESS <br />5. #07-3305 JAMES ZIMMERMAN, 2745 SHADYWOOD ROAD, VARIAN CE, 7:38 P.M. - <br />8:20P.M. ~ <br />~0 <br />Peter Jacobson with Lake Country Builders and Gregg Graten, Architect, were present.
