REGULAR rSEETING OI' THE ORONO COUNCIL, SEPTEr4BER 25, 1979 Page 7 <br /> Staff has several concerns: SUBDIVISION <br /> 925 ��,lillow Drive South <br /> l. The existing driveway location is not adequate (Continued) <br /> and should be relocated, especially if riore than <br /> 2 units are to use it. <br /> 2. Parcel "X" is a legal lot, ��ith an existing <br /> easement. If requested, a building permit <br /> would have to be issued. Therefore, three <br /> units would be using the existing drive. <br /> 3. Even though the ultimate division is hoped for, <br /> there is no guarantee that it will occur. <br /> This proposal must stand on its o��n merits <br /> with all normal safeguards for access, wetlands <br /> and neighboring property protection. <br /> 4. The new house site on Lot 2 , without future <br /> land from parcel "X" is effectivel�� only 1-1/2 <br /> acres even though the entire piece is 7+ acres. <br /> P�_anning Cormmission recomrmended anproval of Plan 4 <br /> �vith norr►al final nlatting requirerients . ^_'his <br /> would include the park fee, a private easement <br /> f_or Lot 1 and no change in parcel "1�' s" easertent. <br /> This would include a small variance for lot �aidth <br /> at the proposed building site. <br /> Staff has spent a long time reviewing the man�� <br /> proposals and PRr. Johnston' s objective of getting <br /> an ultir.►ate subdivision design while as�urinc� <br /> c�uick apnroval so he can start construction of <br /> his house. With Mr. Johnston' s concurrence, �•�e <br /> recomr.tend approval of Plan 5, a cor.►bination of <br /> the ultimate design includin_q all of the Planning <br /> Cor.unission' s recomr.iended features. <br /> 1. The �roposed house site on Lot 2 is fixed and <br /> has approved septic designs. There is no <br /> practical reason to include riore area to <br /> neet density as the entire proposal does <br /> average over two acres . In addition, the <br /> desired westward expansion is still possible <br /> in the future. <br /> 2. The lot line between Lots 1 and 2 is a practical <br /> location along an existing fence line and <br /> allows rec�uir_ed additional drainfield area on <br /> Lot l. This is better than the location shown <br /> on Plan 1 and accounts for the narrowness of <br /> Lot 2. <br /> (Continued) <br />
