RE�ULAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, FEBRUARY 23, 1978 Page 14 SUBDIVISION 3024 Casco Point Road (Continued) We have also revi�wed a soil boring report from Braun Engineering Testing �o. dated July 30, 1976. �ao penetration test borings were taken and "- - - - both borings encountered soft fill material and natural soils which would be subject to detrimental settlement under the loads which would be imposed by the proposed house and the additional fill placed to raise the lot grade." The report goes on to indiate that in order to avoid piling that would be required to support a structure "- - - - - it would be necessary to excavate the compressible and organic materials and place a compacted backfill u�der controlled conditions." These excavations would be up to 17 feet below the existing grade of the lot at the northeast corner of the proposed new house. These items must be carefully examined prior to issuance of any building permit. ' _ End of letter Council P�eeting - February 23, 1978 , Mr. Savid Singer and P�r.
