MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> MONDAY,MARCH 19,2018 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Thiesse requested Mr. Stickney address the issue of the AC units. <br /> Stickney indicated the owner would love to have those stay and that they would work out an easement <br /> with the owner of the new lot. Stickney stated the building has been there a long time and is very well <br /> built and located in the woods. <br /> Thiesse asked what will happen to the trees between the house and the lake. <br /> Stickney indicated they will clear a site pad and that they are only building one house,one driveway,and <br /> one septic site. Stickney stated if the lot was to be further subdivided,then.a sewer line might be <br /> appropriate, but that there is a big buffer in between the sewer site and the lake. <br /> Judson Dayton,Applicant, stated this is not a development but is merely taking one piece of property and <br /> placing a house on a large parcel. Dayton stated normally sewer lines are connected to multiple new <br /> homes and that the current house is hooked up to a drain field and septic system. If the waiver is not <br /> granted, it would be necessary to bring in sewer almost 1,500 feet for one house. Dayton stated they have <br /> performed all the septic tests and have plenty of alternative sites available. Dayton stated he would be <br /> happy to address the sewer issue at the time more homes are built. <br /> Landgraver noted the Watershed District has raised the issue of the two adjacent lots,with a question <br /> towards whether those will be developed. Landgraver asked what the intent is for those two adjacent lots. <br /> Curtis pointed out the two adjacent lots. Curtis noted they are existing lots that can be built on today with <br /> septic systems and are not part of the subdivision. The Watershed District is looking at it with regard to <br /> ownership status. Curtis stated to her understanding that is still being discussed from a watershed rules <br /> standpoint. <br /> Stickney noted the Watershed District also saw an earlier plan that depicted two homes. <br /> Landgraver asked if the two adjacent lots are required to be hooked up to city sewer. <br /> Curtis indicated they are not. <br /> Lemke asked whether there is any septic system for the horse barn. <br /> Dayton stated the barn connects into the guest house and there is a septic system there. Dayton indicated <br /> it is not a permanent residence and there are no horses. <br /> Lemke asked whether it is a totally separate system from the house. <br /> Page 4 of 23 <br />
