MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD SEPTEMBER 21, 1992 ZONING FILE #1762 - CONT. Chair Kelley reminded them that Boyke has enough acreage, but it is the need for variances that he is opposing. Paul Bruer, 275 Hollander Road, said he is concerned with the proximity of the proposed residence to the lake. Jim and Judith Hunder, 265 Hollander Road, agreed with their neighbors' opposing remarks. Mrs. Hunder noted the issue of the need for variances and felt the subdivision did not make sense. Boyke explained he first proposed this subdivision prior to the new shore Iand regulations, but was made to wait due to the moratorium. He noted the "point" area of the property is unbuiI dab le due to current regulations. He is hoping to protect their views of the lake and also realize the full value of his property. He stated they do not have a desire for a dock or pier out onto the lake. He indicated he would be willing to divide off a second lot without making it a lakeshore lot. He added, their intent is not to change the wildlife of the area. Johnson asked about the strip of property near the cul -de -sac, the ownership of which is in question. Boyke explained that the City approved a metes and bounds division, but it was not recorded at the County correctly. He is in the process of trying to work that issue out. Chair Kelley felt that septic testing for the site may determine where the property boundaries should be placed. It was moved by Chair Kelley, seconded by Cohen, to table Application #1762 Paul W. Boyke, 793 North Ferndale Road, pending septic test information. Ayes 7, nays 0. ( #2) #1764 AUSTIN EVANS, 255 LANDMARK DRIVE - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION - PUBLIC HEARING 7:42 - 7:50 P.M.
