MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, August 14, 206 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />( #06 -3180 Bruce Schmitt on behalf of William Ulrich, Continued) <br />Gaffron stated it could consist of planting of trees along the lakeside of the house. Gaffron stated the <br />concern expressed by the Planning Commission were the views from across the lake and that this <br />addition would not have an impact on the adjacent neighbors. . <br />Murphy stated based on the history of this area, the fact this is a complicated piece of property, and that <br />he does not feel there is a problem with the views from across the lake, he personally does not have a <br />problem with what is being proposed here tonight. Murphy inquired whether the applicant should work <br />with Staff on the appropriate screening. <br />Gaffron stated no attempt has been made by the applicant between the Planning Commission meeting <br />and tonight's Council meeting to discuss the screening. Gaffron recommended that the applicant be <br />directed to work with Staff on appropriate screening if the Council feels it is necessary. <br />White commented he also does not have a problem with the application given the location of the lot but <br />that some screening of the addition would be nice improvement. <br />McMillan concurred with White and Murphy, noting the majority of the house is located within the <br />75 -250 foot area and that the deck is actually closer to the lake than this addition would be. McMillan <br />noted in other similar situations they have allowed additions on homes to be constructed in this area. <br />McMillan commented some screening of the addition would be nice. <br />Jamnik inquired whether the Council would like to see a landscape plan prior to approval. <br />White suggested Council approval be subject to Staff review of a landscape plan. <br />Jamnik suggested the motion be subject to city engineer and septic inspector recommendations and <br />submission of a landscape plan to be reviewed and approved by Staff. Jamnik stated no extension of the <br />review period would then be necessary. <br />Murphy moved, McMillan seconded, Application #06 -3180, Bruce Schmitt on behalf of William <br />Ulrich, 2280 French Creek Circle, to direct Staff to draft a resolution approving a lakeshore <br />setback variance and an average lakeshore setback variance, subject to review and approval of a <br />landscape plan by Staff, and further subject to compliance with the recommendations of the City <br />Engineer and septic inspector.
