MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />HELD FEBRUARY 16, 1993 <br />ZONING FILE #1797 - CONT. <br />Anderson noted this is the only feasible expansion to the property. <br />It was moved by Cohen, seconded by Schroeder, to recommend approval <br />of Application #1797 Troy Anderson, 1490 Long Lake Boulevard, for <br />a side yard setback variance to allow the addition of a second <br />story to the existing residence, conditioned upon the applicant <br />providing natural screening along the western lot line and subject <br />to presentation of a plan for such to the City. Ayes 5, nays 0. <br />( #6) #1797 ALBERT & SALLY HANSER, <br />1685 FOX STREET - <br />CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT /VARIANCE - PUBLIC HEARING 7:20 - 7:38 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />Albert and Sally Hanser were present. <br />Mabusth explained the applicant are required to obtain a <br />conditional use permit for excavations greater than 1' for the <br />purpose of creating a sediment trap. The City has asked the <br />applicants to consider expansion of the application that would <br />allow 1' excavations outside the proposed pond area, this would <br />provide compensatory storage for the filling or expansion of the <br />Fox Street road bed. <br />Mr. Hanser said he was concerned about the effect on the trees in <br />the area. He noted he would be agreeable to the expansion of the <br />project, if the trees would remain in tact. <br />Mark Gronberg felt the City probably could not go all the way to <br />the edge of the drainage easement, but they could get close. He <br />stated they may be able to obtain 18,000-19,000 square feet surface <br />area, but probably could not obtain the 21,000 square footage as <br />requested by the DNR. <br />Bellows asked if there was any other area they could obtain. <br />Mabusth felt if the City could use a portion of Hansers' property <br />for mitigation, they could find a smaller area to make up the <br />difference. She suggested presenting the applicants' portion of the <br />request to the Council, and staff continue to work with the <br />applicants on the expansion of the project. <br />It was moved by Cohen, seconded by Johnson, to recommend approval <br />of Application #1799 for Albert and Sally Hanser, 1685 Fox Street, <br />for a conditional use permit and variance to allow the excavation <br />of 8,000 s.f. area to create a sediment trap.
