t: c <br /> Anthony Kane indicated he is hece on behalf of his fathec who resides at 2697 Casco Point Road. Kane <br /> stated whe►i liis fatl�er purchased his lot,fihis lot was vlcant and it was supposed to be a nonbuildable <br /> lot. Kane noted there are significant drainage problems in that area and that iffhe ravine�is filled in, it <br /> would cause�nore water to go to the socrth since his father's property is located lower than this property. <br /> ICane reiterated that the drlinage has been a major issue and that he has concecns that the watec runoff <br /> wil[ be worsened with this pcoposal. <br /> Rahn stated the Planning Commission did not address the drainlge fi�lly tonight because they typically <br /> follow the City Engineer's recommendations and they do not have a report fi•om the Ciiy Engineer at <br /> this time. <br /> Ka�ie stated he would like some attention paid to the cliange in the drain�ge towards his father's house. <br /> Larry ICane stated there is a minimal gutter proposed on the house, witli a steep piiched roof,which in <br /> his o�inion w.ill create additional runoff to his property. <br /> Rahn ceiterated the Planning Commission relies on the recommendations of the City Engineer and <br /> suggested Mr. Kane contact Staff prior to the Counail meeting regarding the recommendations that are <br /> made by the City Engineec. <br /> Kane stated in his view since this was originally a nonbuildable lot,the City is allowing a fi�rther <br /> e�.pansion. _ <br /> Ral�n stated the house beiug proposed is below the structural coverage amount allowed by the City and <br /> that the applicant would be allowed to constr�ict a larger residence on tlie lot. Rahn pointed out <br /> numerous lots in Orono along the lake are nonconforming. <br /> Kane stated a variance had to be granted to construct the existing house. <br /> Bill Miller,2691 Casco Circle,stated he lives to the north of this property and that the issue is the <br /> drainage in this area. Millec stated t(le Planning Commission h1s approved hardcover in eacess of 36 <br /> percent on.numerous occasions in the past and that the issue with this application deals more with the <br /> water runoff than the amount of hardcover. Miller commented tl�e present house l�as deteriorated to the <br /> point wl�ere it ueeds to be replaced. <br /> Miller stated in his opinion there is a safety issue with the driveway and that he would encourage the <br /> Planning Coinniission to allow a wider driveway. Miller stafed he lias witnessed a.number of cars over <br /> . the years go off the present driveway. <br /> . � <br /> Bremec commented tllis is a good opportunity to look afi the drainlge in this area and perhaps cocrect <br /> some of tlie�ro�lems being e�perienced in this area. <br /> (#OG-3184 PAUL THOMAS FIOM�S,CONTINUED) <br /> i <br />
