MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,August 17,2015 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> delineation was done but that the riprap is now there. Jackley stated since no permit was obtained for the <br /> riprap, he is worried whether it was done correctly and that in his view they have experienced water <br /> damage since that was put in. <br /> Jackley stated the next picture shows the water mark on the fence line,which is up about two feet. <br /> Jackley indicated he does store valuable items in the storage shed and that the water will go up a foot or <br /> two whenever there is a seasonal change. Jackley stated he is concerned about this project having an <br /> impact on the water flow onto his property. Jackley noted all the water from County Road 15 flows into <br /> the pond and then has no outlet, which has resulted in the water coming onto his property. <br /> Jackley stated the third picture shows how he has had to resod his back yard due to the flooding and that <br /> in his opinion the existing pond has affected the flow on the property given the riprap. The fourth picture <br /> shows that the neighbors have placed wooden planks down because of the flooding. The fifth picture <br /> depicts how the storage shed is dropping in the back. <br /> Jackley reiterated he wants to make sure that if there is an addition put on the house, that it is not going to <br /> unduly impact his property and that he is worried about future flooding on his property as a result of this <br /> addition. <br /> Jackley stated he is aware Mr. Wyman has hired an engineer and that he is all for improving the property, <br /> but given the short amount of time he has had to review the plans, he would request some additional time <br /> to review the plans. <br /> Schwingler asked how long the additional flooding has been going on. <br /> Jackley stated that portion of his property is now wet all the time. Jackley indicated he was not aware of <br /> the riprap until last week but that he believes it has been placed there in the past few years. Jackley stated <br /> he is aware a permit was obtained for the shoreline. Jackley stated he has lived on the property far 12 <br /> years and that the land is very boggy and wet near the storage shed. Jackley stated he would like to have <br /> a study done to find out why that is happening. <br /> Schwingler asked how long Mr. Jackley has noticed his property being wetter than usual. <br /> Jackley stated it has been in the last several years that it has been wetter. <br /> Schwingler asked how far in advance the notice was sent out. <br /> Curtis indicated it was the standard 10 days. Curtis noted the original application was submitted back in <br /> April or May and was followed by this revision. Notice was given both times. The last notification was <br /> given on the revised plan. <br /> Jackley stated he also has aerial photographs of the area going back 50 years. Jackley pointed out the <br /> riprap and his property and the area that is now wetter. Jackley expressed concern about how the riprap <br /> was put in since it was done without a permit. <br /> Jackley asked how the retaining wall will be approved.
