MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO TRUTH-IN-TAXATION/CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Monday,December 10,2018 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Staff's memo included an analysis of the practical difficulties. Basically the issue is the arc or crest. The <br /> entire sign consists of approximately 1,124.19 square feet of sign area. The crest and the arc will add a <br /> total of 66 square feet of sign area. The City Council just recently reviewed the sign ordinance and this <br /> zoning district allows an 8-foot tall sign with 32 feet in area. A variance was previously approved for a <br /> 9.2 foot sign with 56 square feet of area. The school is asking for a 13-foot tall sign and 124 total square <br /> feet. Barnhart noted while it may seem a lot,there is quite a bit of open space under the arc that has to be <br /> included in the calculation. <br /> Barnhart requested the City Council direct Staff to draft either an approval or denial resolution. Another <br /> option is the Council can decide to have the Planning Commission review the application. <br /> From an impact to the neighborhood standpoint,the sign for Orono Schools and the crest is relatively <br /> minor. The dentist office across the street is approximately the same height and does not appear to be too <br /> massive or high. <br /> Barnhart displayed a picture of the existing sign. <br /> Crosby asked if the new sign will be located in the same location. <br /> Barnhart indicated it will be and that the main difference will be the arc or crest. <br /> Mayor Walsh opened the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. <br /> There were no public comments regarding this application. <br /> Mayor Walsh closed the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. <br /> Dankey stated the new sign will be more appealing. <br /> Crosby stated the sign will be more visibly appealing and will be easier to read from a distance. <br /> Crosby moved,Dankey seconded,to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 6931,A Resolution Approving a <br /> variance from Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-1478 for ISD 278,685 Old Crystal Bay Road. <br /> VOTE: Ayes 4,Nays 0. <br /> 27. LA18-000092 EASEMENT VACATION,RESOLUTION NO.6932 <br /> Paul Vogstrom,Applicant,was present. <br /> Curtis stated the purpose of this item is to hold a public hearing to consider vacation of drainage and <br /> utility easements which are being replaced with new easements on the plat of Pence Lane Addition. On <br /> November 26,the City Council approved the final plat for Pence Lane Addition,a two-lot subdivision of <br /> property at 2709 Walters Port Lane. There are existing drainage and utility easements which were <br /> dedicated with the plat of Carman Heights in 1982 and in the plat of Walters Port in 1961. <br /> With the Pence Lane Addition plat,these easements ha�e been expanded in the area of the wetland and <br /> reduced from 20 feet to 10 feet on the southern portion of the east lot line of Lot 2 to be consistent with <br /> Page 8 of 19 <br />
