The realtor <br /> subr�itting the proposal in.forrr�ed me that this lot <br /> � could not be expanded as the properties on either <br /> side already contained a house. He failed to inform <br /> � r�e that the owner of the subject Lot 2 lives on <br /> � the adjacent Lot l. Under these conditions , it <br /> would be feasible that the two lots be combined <br /> � as one rarcel. <br /> � Gn I,ay 27, 1976, we issued a building permit for <br /> a resioence at 240 Cvgnet Place. The applicant <br /> � was reauested to conbine Lots 6 & 7 as one parcel <br /> and co,��plied. I have enclosed a copy of this <br /> application for co;nbination. <br /> � Planning CorrJnission r4eeting - ?�arch 21, 1977 <br /> � ti•Jork Session iLen. The Cornmission felt that the <br /> conditions of this application were similar to <br /> �' �hose at 1865 Snadywood Road (7238) - 2 adjacent, <br /> � substandard parcels under one ownership. <br /> Planning Commission Neeting - April 4 , 1977 <br /> � ecoi�nended c:enial. Justifications : <br /> � 1 , r ots 1 & 2 in co�;�-non ownership. <br /> � 2 . Area is not sewered nor is it planned to be <br /> sewered in the Comprehensive Sewer Plan. <br /> � Increasing density would only add to the <br /> �roblem_ <br /> �� 3 . Tnere has been sor:le indication tha-t existing <br /> O septic systems in �ne area are not operating <br /> properly. <br /> • 4. Lots 1 & 2 are extremely substandard as <br /> individual building sites. Even if combined, <br /> � �hey lack the necessary 87, 120 sg. ft. <br /> 5 . Suggested combination of the two parcels. <br /> � Council Meeting - April 11, 1977 <br /> � Mayor Brad Van Nest commented to Mr. Lou S9arden <br /> . that the Metropolitan Waste Control Coirunission, <br /> �ollution Control Agency, and the Metro Council <br /> � feel that two-acre lots are a bare minimum to <br /> support on-site disposal systems at this time. <br /> � Orono has to enforce its existing policies and <br /> zoning to protect the saiety, health and welfare <br /> a of all its residents and not allow septic �anks <br /> • on substandard lots as this proposal is. In the <br /> Lu�ure, technologies and other situations might <br /> ., ;hange. At this point, the intercepLor does not <br /> serve this lot or other substandard lots in two- <br /> � �cre zonir_g.
