MiNUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMNQSSION MEETING <br /> Monday,May 18,2015 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> maximum length of a cul-de-sac road is 1,000 feet. Kintyre Lane,as it currently exists, is 900 feet in <br /> iength and the proposcd extension of 650 feet would bring it to 1,550 feet. While ti�ere ara a number of <br /> private roads in the City extending well beyond 1,000 feet, it has been City policy to establish corridars <br /> for possible future development of through roads where the ability exists. The Planning Comm�ssion <br /> should discuss whether a corridor should be dedicated from the pzoposed road extending west to Stubbs <br /> Bay Road. <br /> At the present time the agglicant, Staff,and tlie City Attorney are working witi�the deveioper of Kintyre <br /> to estgblish easement rights and responsibilities for the extension of Kintyre Lane to serve this proposed <br /> development. <br /> Thc Comprehensive Plan shows a firture trail being proposed atong Stubbs Bay Road connectin�from a <br /> conceptual trail atong the south side of the Burlington Northem Railroad corridor dow►z to the shore of <br /> Stubbs Bay. Whather this trail will ever be complatad is unknown at this time,but a lU-foot easement <br /> afong the west boundary for future trail purposes should be e�lored. <br /> Creation of a new private road is likely to require stocmwater ponding and/or other stormwater <br /> management measures. Given the general slope to the nort�east,it is likely th8t ponding would occur in <br /> the area,of one of the four proposed northerly lots. Ponding aroas will require the astablishmant of <br /> easements and the ponding areas will not be credited as building area. The anticipated stonatwater and <br /> drainage trunk fee is approximately$46,800. <br /> The wetland delineation report does require MCWD review and approval to confirm the indicated <br /> boundaries. Thc MCWD would ba involved in establishment of any wetland mitigation requirennents if <br /> needed and would also be establistting appropriate wetland buffers for the development.The City will <br /> require a conservation and flowage easement over each of tha wet(ands as well as impose standard <br /> wetland setback requirements. The development will aiso be subject to the City's Conservation Design <br /> Orcl'u�►ce. <br /> The Planning Commission should d�scuss the following: <br /> 1. Should a road corridor for potantial cot�nection to Stubbs Bay Road North be established7 <br /> 2. Tho applicant is advised to carofully review the buildability of the northerly lots in relation to <br /> abi�ity to provide for cvnforming home locations and septic sites. <br /> 3. Should the applicant's suggestion of�reducing the width of Lots 1 and 2 to 175 feet be alLowed7 <br /> Staff would note that this was only allowe�on Kintyre because it was platted via the PRD <br /> process and a suhstantial area of upland was preserved in a conservation easement out which <br /> preserved a long natural view from Watertown Road with woodad backdrop that would have <br /> otherwiso been lost. Staff quostions whetEier similar conditions exist on this propetty to justify <br /> smaller 1ot widths. <br /> 4. What is the applicant's intent for the portion af property not being divided? <br /> 5. What is the applicanYs intent for the access ta the elcisting houso an Lot 5? <br /> Page 30 of 37 <br />
