REGULAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, APRIL 14, 1980 Page 16 Therefore, even if no change in County Road 15 is SUBDIVISION necessary for this plat, the Council should consider 1484 Shoreline Drive some safety improvements to help the existing (Continued) residents and road users. This may not necessarily be straightening of the highway as proposed. There may be other alternatives. The point is that the issue has been raised and it does deserve more study. To this end, the plat must be reviewed to include the possibility of some future realignment. At the minimum, the suggested setback line should be mandated with either an open space easement or a hold harmless type clause to preclude any building construction near County Road 15 , or if a building is built, to ensure that some future condemnation would not have to pay damages. We know that the road realignment may be a possibility. At this time, we should preclude any unnecessary expense for the land owner or the City. Plat Road - The plat road will be realigned. The road will be private and designated as a 50 ' wide outlot with a 100 ' diameter cul-de-sac. The plans show a proposed 28' wide paved road. Lot 3 will be served by a private driveway easement through Lot 2. This will allow the use of an existing driveway serving the house on Lot 3. (This driveway is in excellent condition and surrounded by many mature plantings. ) Planning Commission Recommendation - Please review the Planning Commission Minutes of March 3, 1980 and March 17 , 1980 for background information and recommendation. The Planning Commission approved of only one single riparian outlot on Smiths Bay and noted it was not within their authority to create substandard riparian outlots or create • artificial riparian outlots via p�at road outlots. Therefore, they recommended approval of six lots, three directly riparian, one riparian via an outlot on Smiths Bay and two non-riparian. Prelimu7ary approval should contain the following points: l. Septic requirements approved per On-Site Manager' s report noting specific concern that steps be taken by developer to protect drainfield area of Lot 1 during period of road construction. 2. Access road - existing access location with relocated interior road as proposed. Plat road to be designated as an outlot. City to acquire underlying easements for road and utility purposes. Lot 2 to grant a private driveway easement in favor of Lot 3. Reconstruction subject to a developers agreement. (Continued)
