MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING • <br />HELD MARCH 21, 1994 <br />( #1) #1898 PAUL AND ROSE HAUSER <br />2801 CASCO POINT ROAD - VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING - 7:12 P.M. - 7:19 P.M. <br />The Chairman announced that this is the continuation of a public hearing originally held at the <br />January 18th meeting of the Planning Commission. <br />Mr. and Mrs. Hauser were present. <br />Mabusth reviewed the proposal for an addition at 32' x 25' submitted for the January meeting <br />and the current proposal at 25' x 27'. The proposed addition is reduced by 75 s.f. with a <br />reduction in the driveway of 69 s.f. and the removal of a lakeshore staircase. Planning <br />Commission members had previously had no objections to the setback variance for the breakfast <br />nook addition and after -the -fact deck because there was sufficient room for safety vehicles to <br />maneuver and the breakfast nook addition was exposed to a neighboring garage. Mabusth <br />explained the hardcover in the 75 -250' setback area was originally proposed at 30.8 % and has <br />been reduced to 28.6%. Within the 250 -500' setback area, hardcover was at 56.9% and is <br />proposed at 30 %. <br />Smith noted there was no typical arrangement for garage placement on properties in the Casco <br />Point area. Often garages are kept near the street to minimize hardcover. Aesthetically she <br />would like to see a different placement of the garage but had no better suggestion. • <br />Nolan asked if the sidewalk would be moved closer to the garage. Hauser confirmed it would <br />be moved under the overhang. <br />Rowlette commented the applicants had made a good effort at improvements. <br />It was moved by Rowlette, seconded by Nolan, to approve Application #1898 for Paul and Rose <br />Hauser, 2801 Casco Point Road, to allow variances for side setbacks, an average lakeshore <br />setback and hardcover for additions to the existing residence. Ayes 7, nays 0. <br />( #3) #1907 JAMES AND JOANN JUNDT <br />1400 BRACKETT'S POINT ROAD - VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING - 7:20 P.M. - <br />7:32 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />Scott Crawford was present to represent the applicants. <br />Mabusth explained the applicants' proposal to renovate a stone step accessway and railing. At <br />an earlier review, the Planning Commission approved replacement of stone steps in another <br />location that had been incorrectly removed. <br />• <br />2 <br />
