MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday, March 15, 2004 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#16. #04-2998 HENRY J. LAZNIARZ, 120 BROWN ROAD SOUTH, SKETCH PLAN <br /> -Continued) <br /> Gaffron asked the builder what kind of housing he is planning to place on the property, single <br /> family residences versus attached. The applicant stated he is interested in this plan for detached <br /> single-family as it allows for larger lots in one area. Could place smaller instead of larger homes <br /> on these lots from 4,000 square feet down to 2,000—3,000 square foot homes. <br /> Gaffron noted if cluster housing is used the road should be private and asked about any other <br /> common spaces other than the road, or will the rest of it becomes platted as individual lots. <br /> Open spaces would be maintained by an HOA. It could be that the builder does a development <br /> where houses are on pads and all the open space around it is maintained by an association or <br /> houses on pads and lawns are maintained by the homeowner. <br /> Mabusth suggested a 50' setback adjacent to the existing two-acre single-family residential sites. <br /> Exterior homes should conform to this requirement. Audience member, Chuck VanEeckout, <br /> seller of the property, indicated that the two lots in question are both heavily wooded lots. <br /> The Planning Commission members noted they generally favor Plan E. <br /> Berg inquired whether there would be a trail down to the Luce Line. The applicant thought <br /> possibly a trail easement. <br /> Fritzler wants to make sure that the trail is not snowmobile accessible. <br /> Gaffron stated there should be a review of possible bluff sites on the property. There should be <br /> an archeological significant review by SHPO. The applicant should look for tree and/or <br /> woodland buffers within the property boundaries where there is high density along there to keep <br /> buffers from the neighbors and tree preservation is important and protective covenants can be put <br /> in place. <br /> Applicant stated he will come back to the commission with a plan. <br /> 15. #04-2987 HASEHM ABUKHADRA, 1745 FOX STREET, SKETCH PLAN <br /> Applicant or surveyor was not present. <br /> Bremer moved and Fritzler seconded to table Application #04-2987 to the next meeting. <br /> VOTE: Ayes: 7; Nays 0. <br /> Page 47 of 48 <br />
