MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, January 25, 2010 <br />7:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br /> <br /> (3. #06-3234 BRIDGEWATER BANK, 4725 & 4731 NORTH SHORE DRIVE – Continued) <br /> <br />Rohl indicated he is. <br /> <br />Bremer noted the City spent a considerable amount of time reviewing and approving the two houses that <br />were constructed on those two lots but that the only item before the City Council tonight is a renewal of a <br />lot line rearrangement. Bremer stated the owner could submit a variance application but that it was her <br />recollection the prior applicant made the decision that he wanted to maximize the size of the house and <br />forego a deck or patio. <br /> <br />Curtis stated at the time the house was proposed, the lakeside of the home contained some large windows <br />that were replaced with some patio doors, which requires a three foot landing. Curtis indicated it is her <br />understanding that the landing has not yet been constructed. <br /> <br />Bremer pointed out that Staff would have the complete file showing what previous permits and work has <br />been done on the property. <br /> <br />Rohl stated he would like to have an acknowledgement from the City Council that a deck or patio would <br />be considered in that location. <br /> <br />Murphy stated the City would consider such a request if an application is submitted, and recommended <br />Mr. Rohl speak with Staff regarding his specific proposal. <br /> <br />Tom Johnson, Bridgewater Bank, indicated he is also here to listen to the comments by the one potential <br />buyer about the driveway. Johnson stated it is his understanding the potential buyer does not have an <br />issue with the heated driveway but was wondering whether the driveway could be delayed until there was <br />a buyer for the other lot. <br /> <br />Curtis stated if the Council approves the application tonight, the documents would get filed and the lots <br />would be able to be sold. <br /> <br />Mattick noted this is a renewal of a lot line rearrangement and the deeds have already been drafted. The <br />deeds and resolution will be filed, which will allow the two lots to be sold. <br /> <br />Curtis stated the future buyers of the lots would need to work with the City on proposed improvements or <br />changes to the approved plan. The driveway is already part of the approval and could be addressed with <br />an escrow or a letter of credit. <br /> <br />Murphy asked what the difference is between the resolution marked as Exhibit A and the resolution <br />marked as Item #3. <br /> <br />Curtis stated Exhibit A is a lengthier resolution and that Item #3 simply reaffirms the previously approved <br />resolution. <br /> <br />Murphy moved, Bremer seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 5910, a Resolution Granting <br />Subdivision of a Lot Line Rearrangement and Variances for Properties Located at 4725 and 4731 <br />North Shore Drive. VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br /> <br />Item #02 - CC Agenda - 02/08/2010 <br />Approval of Council Minutes 01/25/2010 <br />[Page 2 of 5]
