MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />HELD OCTOBER 19, 1992 <br />( #6) #1767 GEORGE & THERESA BLOOM, <br />1374 REST POINT ROAD - <br />VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING 8:17 - 8:30 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />Mr. and Mrs. George Bloom were present for this application. <br />Mabusth explained the applicants propose a detached garage which <br />requires a street setback variance and hardcover variance. They <br />plan to remove the plastic landscape area within the 0 -75' zone and <br />the bench boxes will be moved to the deck area, resulting in <br />additional hardcover removals. <br />Cohen asked about the additional information requested. <br />Mabusth stated the applicant has not provided elevations, but has <br />addressed the drainage issue. She referred to the addendum <br />information in the packet. She pointed out the survey deals with <br />the 926' elevation which places the 75' setback at an incorrect <br />location. She noted that a Council member has called attention to <br />the survey that noted a 926' elevation which would require <br />amendment of the hardcover facts. <br />16 Mr. Bloom indicated his desire to move the application along <br />quickly advising they would like to build this year. <br />It was moved by Cohen, seconded by Bellows, to recommend denial of <br />Application #1767 for George and Theresa Bloom, 1374 Rest Point <br />Road, due to the lack of a correct survey information and <br />elevations for the new structure. Ayes 7, nays 0. <br />( #7) #1768 DR. WILLIAM & RHONDA T. OMLIE, <br />1860 SHADYWOOD ROAD - <br />VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING 8:30 - 9:05 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />Dr. William and Rhonda Omlie were present for this application. <br />Rhonda Omlie explained they have revised their proposal to have the <br />garage addition follow the existing garage side, requiring a 15" <br />variance from the side lot line, and to provide a circular drive. <br />She stated their main reason for the request is due to safety. She <br />noted they currently back 130' on to County Road 19. They have <br />three vehicles, which requires some shuffling at times to exit the <br />property. The circular drive would allow for forward access onto <br />the County road. She pointed out they do not have any hardcover <br />within the 0 -75' zone, and are requesting a 5% increase in the 75- <br />250' zone. She noted they or i g i na I I y worked f rom a prev i ous survey, <br />which proved to be incorrect, thus delaying the project. <br />8 <br />
