MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON MARCH 23, 1998 ( #12 - #2339 James Render - Continued) • Jabbour asked Barrett's opinion regarding Staffs recommendation on the house encroachment. Barrett agreed the recommendation was satisfactory as long as the special lot combination was completed as a condition of the preliminary subdivision. Render asked if the special lot combination requires further Council review. He was informed that it can disappear after one year. Render asked if it was necessary for the subdivision. Gaffron said it was not. Peterson moved, Goetten seconded, to approve Resolution No. 4053 for preliminary plat approval with the addition that the easement will stop 5' from the property line and a special lot combination agreement is signed as drafted by the City with the house remaining for a time period not to exceed 12 months. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. (A short recess was held.) ( #13) #2341 DANIEL J. ANDERSON, 905 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD SOUTH - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION APPROVAL The applicant was present along with Ed Otto, Kevin Prohasso and Marty Campion. Gaffron reviewed the general direction previously given to the applicant by the Council. The stormwater plan has been submitted. City Engineer, Tom Kellogg, has reviewed it and had some questions relating to the grading plan. A stormwater pond is proposed at east end of Lot 7. It has been confirmed that Lot 7 meets the two acre minimun after adjusting for the pond. Cook was asked to comment. Cook said the amount of runoff that will reach the pond will be an improvement over the current situation. Lots 4, 5, and 6 will drain runoff toward the lake. Jabbour noted that by preserving the shoreline vegetation, there should be no problem. Gaffron indicated that an option would be to create a second pond by the lake but that would result in much damage to the shoreline. Cook agreed. Marty said about 1/3 of the site will drain to the pond. The remainder will drain to the north through a ditch system along the county road or to the lake directly. There will also be less runoff on the north lot with the expected decrease of hard surface from the existing situation. Anderson said the goal for runoff from Lot 3 is to bring it to the front by the cul -de -sac. Gaffron noted that the layout for Lot 7 technically makes the front lot line 50' in length as opposed to the 200' standard. He questioned whether it should be considered a back lot. Lot 7 will now accommodate stormwater while still having septic sites and building pad. He asked if Council was satisfied with the layout of Lot 7 noting it appears to be functional. is 16
