I2�GULAR tiEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, SEPTF.*4BER 25, 1979 Page 6 <br /> Alan Olson, City Planner, entered into the record SUBDIVISION <br /> the subdivision request of H. R. Johnston, 925 �^Iillow Drive South <br /> 925 TVillow Drive South, dated September 13, 1979 , �457 <br /> which states: H.R. Johnston <br /> t•Zr. Johnston is proposing a division of his property <br /> into two pieces; one lot around the existing house <br /> and the remainder to be used for construction <br /> of his new home. <br /> The property is complicated by having onlyo une <br /> narrow portion abutting Willow Drive and by <br /> intervening completely between Willow Drive and <br /> a land locked parcel of land west of the Johnston <br /> property on the end of a peninsula, shown as "X" <br /> on the sketches. <br /> The first proposal �vas for a three lot division <br /> including a private driveway outlet. The existing <br /> driveway outlet onto 4�illow Drive wasreviewed <br /> by the City Engineer with the recorunendation <br /> that it be rioved north for better safety and <br /> sight lines. The private road was also to be <br /> extended west to serve future development of <br /> parcel "X" . Plan 2 , <br /> These concerns caused consideration of a complete <br /> plat involving the whole peninsula including <br /> parcel "X" and the pieces between the road and <br /> this property. Lot 1 would expand westward to an <br /> existing fence line. Lot 2 would _qrow onto <br /> parcel "X" , as new lot would be created along <br /> 47illow Drive. See Plan 3. This is the ultimate <br /> plan of the developer, if all property could be <br /> obtained. <br /> Unfortunately, the additional land acquisition <br /> could not be negotiated as quickly as desired. <br /> Pir. Johnston wishes to build his new home soon. <br /> The ultimate plan is to accomplish the addition, <br /> but of course, there is no guarantee of if or <br /> when this can occur. <br /> As a result, Mr. Johnston now proposes Plan 4, <br /> with lot lines adjusted to accommodate the <br /> ultir:iate Plan 3. The new house site has about <br /> 1 Z acres (of 7+ total on Lot 2) allowing for <br /> the existing driveway would be used �vith an <br /> easer.ient to Lot 1. Lot 1 would also be land- <br /> locked without the drivewav outlot. <br /> (Continued) <br />
