• MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,October 17,2005 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#05-3160 Judson Dayton,Continued) <br /> Winston stated it allows Mr. Dayton to retain one lot,remain on the property, and have access to the lot <br /> once Parcel 1 is sold. <br /> Gaffron stated there are also issues with the barn and guesthouse being located less than 50 feet from the <br /> property line. <br /> Winston stated those issues would not be relevant until the one parcel were sold. Winston stated access <br /> could also be gained through the northern part of the site. Winston reiterated they would like to have two <br /> tax parcels rather than three, and that if a willing buyer were not found,they would come back in for a <br /> subdivision at that time. <br /> Fritzler stated if the easement for proposed Parcel 2 were granted and then the rest of the property were <br /> divided out, it is possible that the easement would need to be changed. <br /> Winston displayed a map depicting a possible roadway off of Old Crystal Bay to provide access to the <br /> parcels. Winston stated they are not asking for a subdivision at this time but they would like to create two <br /> lots rather than three. Winston stated in his opinion access to a possible future subdivision is really not an <br /> issue tonight. <br /> Leslie stated that part of the proposal is removing one of the tax parcels from the City's tax base. Leslie <br /> inquired whether the fees and taxes would be reduced by this lot line rearrangement. <br /> Winston indicated that was not one of the motivating factors. <br /> Leslie inquired whether that could be acknowledged in an easement. <br /> Gaffron stated one of the things that triggers whether certain fees are assessed is if the applicant were to <br /> sell the entire property,all three tax parcels, and if the property were to be subdivided, the City would <br /> collect park dedication fees from whatever number of lots were created. Gaffron stated stormwater trunk <br /> fees would also be assessed for every lot that is created, as well as sewer connection fees if the <br /> development is sewered. <br /> Dayton stated he would like to carve that piece of property off from the other parcel so that he is able to <br /> remain on that piece of property and sell off the larger parcel to one or possibly two buyers. <br /> Leslie indicated he is inclined to approve the easement but that he is looking for reasons why this <br /> easement might not work. <br /> Winston stated it would be logical for the property to tie into existing stormwater and sanitary sewer and <br /> that those lots would be assessed at the time houses were constructed on the sites. Winston stated it <br /> would make sense for Parcel 2 to join in that application for the infrastructure improvements. <br /> PAGE 25 <br />
