The attached draft Resolution attempts to address all relevant issues, including some <br />that have not received much discussion. It is possible that certain items may require additional <br />consideration if Council desires. To summarize the key elements of the Resolution: <br />- Physical characteristics of the property and the proposed development are documented; <br />- It is noted that a variance for road length is intended to be granted and justification for the <br />variance provided; <br />- Concerns of the Foxhill residents are noted in the ‘Findings’, and the Developer’s <br />remedies for addressing those concerns are noted in the Conclusions, Order and <br />Conditions; <br />- The Conservation Design inventory and Master Plan are summarized, with the condition <br />that the Conservation Design recommendations be adhered to; <br />- Provision of municipal sewer to the property is discussed; a Sewer Connection Charge of <br />$67,320 is established based on the 1998 Shoreline/Heritage Sewer project per the 2015 <br />Fee Schedule; <br />- It is noted that Lots 1 and 2 will have new existing grades established for height and story <br />determination purposes; <br />- The three Outlots along Shoreline Drive intended as future potential dockage for Lots 1 <br />thru 3 are discussed, noting that this plat approval does not approve use of those outlots <br />for dockage, but requires separate City and MCWD review and approval <br />- The standard easements for wetland protection are required; the small wetland being <br />filled for the road extension technically requires approval by MCWD, may require <br />mitigation, and under Orono Code is required to be removed from the Wetland Overlay <br />District;
