This would place the allowable building site an pzoposed Lot I about 290 <br /> feet from fhe shore. <br /> The wetlands on the site will be subject to the appropriate buffer requirements and conservation <br /> easements. P�rtions of t1�►e site are heavily wooded and portions are quite open.The existing barn and <br /> pasEure areas visible from Old Crystal Bay Road add to Orono's rural character,as do the wooded <br /> backdrops behind them It would be apprapriate that developxnent of this site be subject to the <br /> principals of Conserc�ation Design,identifying the important aesthetic and ecological elements of the <br /> site and establishing a program for their preservation. <br /> Proposed Lot 2 contains a residence,a caretaker house,and a large horse barn with a carefaker <br /> apartment, The caretaker house was granted a conditional use pernut for guest house use and additions <br /> in I986. In 1992,the then 4,432 square foot horse barn was granted a variance to expand to 5,168 � <br /> square feet,where the Oversize Accessory Stxuctures ordinance wouid l�ave allowed only a 3,000 square <br /> foot building. Also in 1992,a conditional use permit was granted for renovation and use of the <br /> caretaker apartment in the barn. � <br /> Gaffron stated there are a number of issues outlined in the report for consideranon by the Planning <br /> Commission. <br /> � Mr.Winston stated#hey are dealing with a property that has three tax parcels and they are proposing to <br /> add one new pazcel,which should not negatively impact the neighborhood or the cornmunity. VViuston <br /> stafed tonighf they are proposing to proceed forward with a plat. <br /> Winston sfated the concerns expressed by Planner Gaffron flave been raised previously and that they are <br /> not proposing anything different as part of this sketch plan, Winston stated they l�ave attempted to <br /> accommodate the existing topography and the lay of the land,which accounts for the layout of the lots. <br /> Winston stated the plan.is that Mr.Dayton would be able to remain on the central portian of the � <br /> properiy and thmgs on the site would remain pretty much as is. <br /> . Winston siated the logical place for the sidewalk would be to go east and that a sidewalk trail on the � <br /> west side of the road does not make much sense. <br /> Winston stated they welcome the direction of the Planning Commission on the setbacks. Winston stated <br /> it naay make the most sense to go with the 175 foot average lakeshore setback. <br /> Mr.Dayton stated at this ppint there is nothing planned for the wetland area and that he would like to <br /> keep that as is as long as possible. <br /> Gronberg inquired whether a 50-foot right-of-way would be required. Gronberg stated Outlot B would • <br /> be able to accommodate 50 feet but tha.t the problem is the barn. Gronberg suggested that a portion of <br /> the right-of-way be 30 feet, <br /> PAGE 34 <br />
