MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING CONilvllSSION MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 21 , 1995 (#18 -#2047 Lakeview Golf -Continued) Peterson commented that the Park Commission reviewed the sketch plan and did not propose a trail on the property but would ask for normal park dedication fees . The applicant was informed that this amount would be 8% of the lot area or cash in the equivalence of 8% of the fair market value before development. (#19) #2053 DENNIS PLA TTETER, 809 NORTH BROWN ROAD -SKETCH PLAN OF A 3-LOT RESIDENTIAL SUBDMSION Mr. Flatterer was present. Mabusth reported that the plan is for a division of a 6 .37 acre homestead, located to the north side of Sugar \Voods development , into three lots . All structures would be removed . The property is accessed via a platted road . The property is on a natural environment lake to the northwest, the OHW is at 985 .5 elevation . .4 of the total property is a type 3 wetland adjacent to the normal high water level. Each lot is shown meeting the two acres of dry buildable . It was noted that if the road were moved to the west , the lots would not have the 2 acres of dry buildable required. Lot 2 requires a lot width variance in its present configuration. Mabusth reported that the septic would be mound-type systems , and 3 were tested at an 8% slope. The septic code specifically states that mound systems must be placed on a slope no greater than 6%. Staff could not recommend approval of 3 lot plat based on septic limitations . The property is not located within MUSA Mabusth asked the Commission if they would recommend approval of current layout? A lot width variance would be required for lot 2 that gains access via a long platted conidor. The lakeshore lot meets 200 ' at the lake and the 150' setback. Flatterer said he has owned the property for 20 years. The MUSA line is adjacent to the property to the south. The property contains alot of sandy area. The applicant selected the building sites based on the views , maintenance of trees and slopes, and then constructed the lot lines to meet the codes. The applicant was informed that with a 150-200' long road , his likely choices would be for 3 executive lots or 2 hobby farms , with contemplation for larger cul-de-sacs required by the fire department. Peterson said it was his opinion that the property consisted of two lots , not three, as there would be too much crowding in order to gain the proper septic. Berg agreed with this conclusion . 27
