The proposal consists of the <br />division of one existing 7.6 ace parcel resulting into two 2 plus acre parcels. Proposed Lot 1 will access <br />off of the newly created Graham Hill Road while proposed Lot 2 will continue to access off of High <br />Lane. <br /> <br />The proposed plat layout reflects the dedication of 50 feet of property for the continuation of the right- <br />of-way of High Lane. The acreage of proposed Lot 2 is to be 4.78 acres and Lot 1 is 2.37 acres. The <br />property owners have indicated to Staff that they would like the Council to reconsider the High Lane <br />Road dedication. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the preliminary plat subdivision. <br /> <br />Planning Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat subject to the City Engineer’s <br />recommendations. <br /> <br />Reilly indicated he has spoken with Mike Gaffron regarding the memorandum he wrote to Planner <br />Curtis and that it is the opinion of Gaffron this 50-foot corridor should become an outlot, which would <br />give the City of Orono an easement across that piece of property in the northwest corner.
