MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,August 19, 2002 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#02-2819 TIM DEVRIES, Continued) <br /> the past. He would not require the applicant to obtain a new survey, since the City is not typically <br /> concerned with type 1/2 and their impact on the septic, or the septic impact on them. <br /> Mabusth questioned condition#1, the grading boundary for the septic in the northern area. <br /> Gaffron stated that he was unsure where the silt fencing ran on the northern piece with regard to <br /> the septic site location. <br /> Mr. Robin stated that the fencing runs through the wooded area and the stumper was self <br /> propelled so as to lessen the disturbance. <br /> Gaffron suggested that the applicant leave a 30'-50' buffer uphill and to the side, along with <br /> heavy duty clearly marked fencing up north, to ensure positive controls of where the dump trucks <br /> are driving and putting their fill. <br /> Mr. Robin stated that they will add signage to the silt fencing and communicate in dollars and <br /> cents with the drivers about where, and where not to,place the fill. <br /> Smith asked if any provisions or direction could be given to the applicant, with regard to <br /> lighting, in order to avoid any future issues with neighbors. Either by suggesting the type of <br /> lighting or hours of operation. <br /> Gaffron acknowledged that the Commission felt the need to tighten up the restrictions as a matter <br /> of recourse if the neighbors are unhappy with how things turn out. <br /> Smith maintained that she did not want to be confronted with problems from neighbors' 6 <br /> months down the line. <br /> Mr. Robin asked if they were proposing to tie the issue of lighting to grading. He pointed out <br /> that the applicant was committing to meet zoning issues and ordinance requirements with regard <br /> to the visibility of lighting, and they will do their best to make sure they are not creating a <br /> monster, but beyond meeting the City's ordinances they could not commit, in public, to <br /> something they don't know how people are going to react to until the actual thing is finished. <br /> Gaffron concurred, stating that the City cannot always ensure the future happiness of neighbors <br /> and regulate to do so. <br /> PAGE 23 of 28 <br />
