MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,Apri119,2010 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#10-3458 JUDSON DAYTON,825 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD, CONTINUED) <br /> Kang asked whether the guest house would remain. <br /> Dayton indicated it would. <br /> Kang asked whether the application would trigger a new CUP for the guest house. <br /> Curtis stated based on the prior resolutions that were adopted,the guest house was a concern going into the <br /> future. Curtis indicated she does not believe this particular subdivision would limit the size of the property <br /> such that it would make the guest house nonconforming. A guest house requires double the lot area, and at 13 <br /> acres,it would not challenge that. <br /> Kang asked whether the barn would also remain. <br /> Dayton indicated it would. <br /> Winer moved,Leskinen seconded to recommend approval of Application#10-3458,Judson Dayton,825 <br /> Old Crystal Bay Road,approval of preliminary plat,subject to the recommendations of Staff and per <br /> the recommendations of MCWD and the City Engineer,subject to Lot 1 being converted to a back lot <br /> with the access lot being located in the current corridor.

The two subject <br /> properties along with the property immediately to the south,270 Willow Drive, are currently proposed to be <br /> reguided from a two-acre minimum to high density residential within the 2010-2030 Comprehensive Plan. In <br /> the 2010-2030 CMP,high density means a potential for 10-15 units per acre. <br /> Commonbond Communities is currently proposing a 42-unit workforce apariment community. The layout <br /> would appear to be like townhomes in a row-house configuration,but would be rented. <br /> Curtis stated while no formal action is requested,the Planning Commission should allow public comments and <br /> questions about CBC and the project. The Planning Commission should also review the proposed plans,ask <br /> questions, and offer any input necessary. The developer can and may present additional information as they <br /> feel appropriate. A formal application is expected to be presented for public hearing at the May 17`�'Planning <br /> Commission meeting. <br /> Novak stated CommonBond Communities is a nonprofit entity and are in the business of constructing stable <br /> homes, strong futures, and vibrant communities for the residents they serve. The housing they provide is vital <br /> to communities and is seen as an asset. The homes are built for the long-term and provide core and <br /> customized resources for the residents. <br /> Page 9 <br />
