MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,June 20,2005 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#05-3104 David and Renee Mack, Continued) <br /> Jurgens concurred with the need to limit the structural coverage and pointed out that by reducing the <br /> structural coverage, the need for the setback variances may be eliminated. <br /> Rahn stated items one and four could be eliminated by stepping the garage back slightly,but that in his <br /> opinion the Council would not approve structural coverage over the allowed 15 percent. <br /> Jurgens indicated he has a concern regarding the amount of hardcover within the 75'-250' zone and noted <br /> there appears to be plenty of room to park a number of vehicles without the turn. <br /> Rahn stated the two access points are also an issue. <br /> Jurgens stated he would like the hardcover reduced in the 75'-250' zone by removing a portion of the <br /> driveway. <br /> Bremer noted the lot is very narrow and somewhat shallow. <br /> Rahn inquired whether the applicants would prefer the three-car garage or the house addition. Rahn <br /> pointed out the garage would increase the hardcover on the lot since additional hardcover would be <br /> required to access the garage. Rahn suggested the structural coverage be reduced to 16 percent and the <br /> second access point be eliminated. <br /> Bremer noted the structural coverage would be reduced to 19.6 if the lakeside addition were removed. <br /> Rahn recommended the structural coverage be restricted to what currently exists. <br /> Leslie noted structural coverage currently is at 16 percent. <br /> Mack indicated he would prefer a portion of the garage be eliminated rather than the house addition. <br /> Jurgens moved to recommend approval of Application#05-3104,David and Renee Mack, 1978 <br /> Shadywood Road,with the condition that the hardcover in the 0-75' will be reduced by the amount <br /> of structural coverage that will be reduced in the 0-75', and subject to the hardcover within the 75'- <br /> 250' zone being reduced by the amount of structural coverage removed in that area, and further <br /> subject to the removal of the looped driveway,with the understanding the structural coverage will <br /> not exceed 16 percent,and to recommend denial of Items 1 and 4. <br /> Curtis noted a variance to the lake setback would still be necessary to expand the second floor. <br /> Jurgens recommended approval of the lakeside variance for the second story over the existing <br /> structure. Rahn seconded the motion. <br /> Bremer indicated she does not understand the motion. Bremer inquired whether the entrance would be <br /> allowed to remain. <br /> PAGE 13 <br />
