To: Laura Oakden/Planner@ City of Orono
From: Tom Jungels/ Keith Jungels @2715 Casco Pt Rd.,Orono/Adjacent
neighbor to the south of 2697 Casco Pt Rd
Regarding: #18-000019 Mark Williams, 2697 Casco Pt Rd
Thank you for helping us understand the proposed variance request and city
code information relative to the new home design by Mark Williams…Mark
Williams did call and email with information as well, Thanks…
After our discussions, we have a couple of concerns/comments:
1) With the minimum set back of 7.5 ft for the building and 5ft setback for
the driveway being implemented by our property line, we have a concern
about water runoff/drainage..We suggest a plan that will control the water
from not entering our property. Being near a flood zone with varying
elevations causes a variety of drainage issues that need to be controlled both
during and after construction.
2) We discussed the sewer/lift station on our property that is being utilized by
2697 Casco Pt. Rd. We suggest that now would be an appropriate time for
2697 Casco Pt. Rd. to secure their own sewage disposal system as part of
their comprehensive plan.
3) The lakeshore set back variance from 75 ft to 65 ft is not of major concern
for us. We also compliment the exterior design as being a nice improvement
to our neighborhood.
