MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#9 - 92272/2277 Wyatt Moe - Continued) • Kelley asked if the existing house on the north will provide for an easement for access to the southern lot. Gaffron informed him that the access easement could be abandoned and a driveway built instead. Kelley asked if this would be allowed. Gaffron said yes, but it would be dependent on the hardcover. Kelley questioned whether this Council would make that approval. Gaffron indicated the driveway relocation could be accomplished without a variance but not if the northern house is expanded. Kelley questioned whether the property owner would use the driveway as a hardship. He said he was attempting to visualize what might occur in the property in the future. Hurr reiterated that the lots are two separate parcels.
