MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> JUNE 19, 2000 <br /> (#2592 MIKE HILBELINK,CONTINUED) <br /> screening shall be required along the south side of the driveway to protect the building site and to act <br /> as a natural buffer between the driveway and Lot 1. <br /> Weinberger stated the septic inspector has reviewed the submitted septic plans,with all four septic <br /> sites as shown on the property conforming to all standards and would be suitable for the construction <br /> of a mound system. <br /> City Staff is recommending approval of the preliminary plans subject to the changes to the access. <br /> Hilbelink stated they would like the 30 foot outlot to remain the same since another 10 feet will <br /> result in pushing the setback from the house further down the hill. Hilbelink stated the current <br /> driveway is a solid surface already and should be sufficient to serve the two homes. <br /> Hilbelink noted they have dropped off some information regarding the landscaping,noting the <br /> property currently has a significant number of trees which they will attempt to save. <br /> Lindquist pointed out the trees and the area within the additional 10 feet will not change. <br /> Hilbelink stated the additional 10 feet would cause the house to be located further downhill. <br /> • Lindquist stated in his opinion there is enough room to do that. <br /> Weinberger indicated the additional ten feet would not impact the septic sites. Weinberger stated <br /> Staff could review this at a later time. <br /> Vogt questioned how they can determine whether placement of the driveway should be if they are <br /> unsure where the building pads are for both lots. Vogt stated they could potentially plant trees where <br /> the driveway will go. Vogt inquired whether that could be something that is stipulated to and <br /> completed at the time the building permit is issued. <br /> Weinberger stated that could be an option. Weinberger stated Staff could review the location of <br /> the driveway and the planting of trees at a later time once a final determination is made on the <br /> location. <br /> Lindquist inquired on Lot 2 what will happen in the future if they should want to split that lot. <br /> Hilbelink stated they did look at another plan initially which would involve bringing a road and <br /> a 100 foot outlot and a 100 foot cul-de-sac. Hilbelink stated the way the lot was divided did not <br /> create the best lot and was rejected. <br /> Lindquist suggested having a 50 foot outlot in the event Lot 2 is subdivided in the future. <br /> Hawn stated the way it is currently proposed, it cannot be developed in the future. <br /> Lindquist commented the City has a number of driveways that are only 20, 30 feet in width that <br /> • service six or seven houses because the properties have been further subdivided. <br /> PAGE 16 <br />
