ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD FEBRUARY 11, 1991 <br />ZONING FILE $1600- RICR'S SUPER VALU CONTINUED <br />Mayor Paterson asked Staff if any of the residents living in <br />the area of Super Valu had expressed concerns. <br />Mabusth stated that the City had heard nothing from the <br />residents. <br />Mayor Peterson asked how high the retaining wall will be. <br />Mr. Neil Libson replied, "The wall is 17 feet high at its <br />maximum height. The wall is approximately 3.5 feet above the <br />delivery ramp. We are proposing the wall at that height so it <br />will act as a guardrail for safety reasons. It will also act as <br />a noise barrier for the trucks." <br />Goetten asked what the hardship basis is for this Variance. <br />Mr. Fuller referred to the Position Paper he had submitted. <br />He said, "The topography and an existing water line limit our <br />ability to expand the building anywhere else.
