MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday, April 18, 2016 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Schoenzeit recommended the drainage be dealt with on each individual property. <br /> Anderson indicated he likes raising the cul-de-sac and moving the stormwater pond as far west as <br /> possible. <br /> Thiesse recommended the developer also take into consideration the headlights from vehicles if he raises <br /> the cul-de-sac. <br /> Landgraver asked what the applicant's thoughts are about a private road versus public. <br /> Anderson stated he would prefer to go with a private road since it would be less costly. <br /> Gaffron noted the costs are fairly siinilar,with the private road being slightly lower since it would not <br /> need to be 28 feet wide,but that a cul-de-sac would still be necessary. Gaffron stated given the relatively <br /> short length of the road, it is likely the City Council would require the road be private. <br /> Lemke asked if there will be separate driveways for all three homes. <br /> Anderson indicated given the price point of the homes,the purchasers would likely prefer their own <br /> driveway. <br /> The Planning Commission took no fonnal action on this item. <br /> 4. #16-3821 TIM AND MARY BECKER, 1565 FAIRVIEW COTTAGE LANE, <br /> CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, 7:28 P.M.—7:35 P.M. <br /> Tim Becker,Applicant, was present. <br /> Gaffron stated the applicant is requesting conditional use permit approval for installation of a full <br /> bathroom, including a toilet, sink and a shower/bathtub in a proposed 1,000 square foot detached garage <br /> on the property. A total of 2.0 acres is required in order to pennit a guest house conditional use pennit. <br /> The property is 1.2 acres in area and is therefore not eligible for a guest house conditional use pennit. <br /> The property is a lakeshore lot with an existing house. There is also a drainageway on the property shared <br /> with the neighbor to the immediate west which likely will not cause any issues. <br /> The proposed detached structure consists of a three-stall garage with a bonus room above it to be used as <br /> a bobby/studio area. While this space will contain the physical features that might make it seem attractive <br /> for use as a dwelling or base for a home occupation, such uses will not be allowed and the property owner <br /> will be required to execute covenants prohibiting such uses. Hardcover and structural coverage will be <br /> within the 25 percent and 15 percent liinits. <br /> Gaffron displayed the layout of the second story of the building. <br /> Planning Staff recominends approval of the conditional use pennit for plu�nbing,including a bathtub or <br /> shower,within the proposed detached accessory garage structure subject to the conditions that the owner <br /> execute a covenant to be filed in the chain of title establishing the following: <br /> a. Used for a home occupation unless specifically approved by the City or if allowed by this Code. <br /> Page 9 of 32 <br />
