• MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COlYIlVIISSION MEETIlrTG <br /> Mflndsy,May 18,2015 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Gaffron stated the parcel that would not be develflped likely would be platted as an outlot. If it is not <br /> platte�as an outlot but platted as a lot,there would need to be septic testing completed and the lot would <br /> be subject to stormwater and drainage trunk foes. Gaffron stated there is not a problem with leaving it as <br /> an outlot. The other option would be to combine it wit�the adjoining property. <br /> Ga�ron stated from Staff's perspective,what has been presented is in general a good layout,snd if <br /> everything tssts fine for saptic,he would not have a problem witi�i�. <br /> Bollis stated since they have submitted their sketch plan,the onsite review by the Watershed was <br /> completed. Bollis indicated tho wetland on Lot 2 is actually considerably atnaller than what was <br /> originally delineated. The first$0 feet of the wet�and was determined to be upland, which helps a lot with <br /> building pad and septic. Bollis stated the open ponds are proposed ponds for stormwater management <br /> and are not natural wetlands. <br /> Thiesse asked about the existing cu(�e-sac and whether it wouJd be made a through road. <br /> Gaffron stated it is plattsd as an outlot up to a certain point with a separate tax pam,el at the end. Gaf�ran <br /> stated one of the discussion points as this plan progresses is whether one of tt►e cul-de�sacs could <br /> disappear. Since it is platted,there would need to be a vacation of that outlot and perhaps be combined <br /> with one of tho adjacent lots. <br /> T'hiesse stated it could be a nica turnaround halfway there except it could potentially create a traffic <br /> problem if someone was coming aver the hiIl,Thiesse asked if there is surmountable curb on the cul-de- <br /> sac. <br /> Ballis stated there is surmountable curb on tt►e cul-d�sac and that it would be nice to remove that if <br /> possible. Bollis noted there is a similar cul-do-sac in Graham Hill appzoximately 1,500 feet in length. <br /> Leskinen asked what the total length of the road is. <br /> Gaffron indicated it is approximately 1,540 feet from Watertown Road. <br /> An audiencs member asked if public comrnent would be allowed. <br /> Gat�'ron noted this is a sketch plan reviaw and that the public is not notified and public commen�s are <br /> typically not taken,but the Planning Commission has the option of a;ccepting public comments. <br /> Chair Leskinen stated she wauld allow public comments. <br /> Susan Fleming,3t?0 Stubbs Bay Road, stated they would be very disappointed ir that turned into a road <br /> going out to Stubbs Bay Road. Fleming asked whether these homes are going to be walkouts or single- <br /> level homes,because they would be loolting directly at three tevel homes if they are walkouts. Flemizxg <br /> stated in her view Lot 6 is a real�y flat lot and that she is not sure how they could put a walkout there. <br /> Dick Stubbs,400 Stubbs Bay Road,stated they wi11 not want a driveway on the north end since it is really <br /> low land that floods out every spring. <br /> Gaffiron stated k►e is not sure if there is an answer to define what type of house could go on Lot 6. <br /> Page 33 of 37 <br />
