MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, May 22, 2017 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />Dankey stated in her view the property is not that close to other homes. <br />Printup stated it is Hennepin County's project and that it can stay on their road. Printup commented it <br />does not need to be in Orono. <br />Crosby noted it will be in Orono sooner or later and that the City can place different restrictions on the <br />activity if it is on this site. <br />Printup moved to allow construction staging of nonconcrete or asphalt based material, such as dirt <br />and sand, and staging and storage of construction equipment. The motion was not seconded. <br />Dankey asked whether it would be worth it to Mr. Fretham if that was the extent of it. <br />Fretham pointed out all those things are secondary to the recycling, which is the main issue that they are <br />looking to solve. Fretharn stated the contractor is okay with doing it downtown, but the choice is whether <br />the City wants it downtown or whether they want to control the activity. Fretham stated he appreciates <br />the willingness to allow those items since it seems to be a move toward a compromise, but that the <br />recycling activity is the driver behind the request. <br />Walsh suggested this item be tabled until the next Council meeting since it appears to be a tied vote at this <br />point and that there is one council member absent this evening. <br />Dankey commented doing the concrete crushing along the road is also time consuming and delays the <br />project. <br />Walsh stated there are a lot of unintended consequences that could happen with either option and that <br />there is no easy solution. <br />Printup moved, Crosby seconded, to table Application No. 17-3910 Lakewest Development, LLC, <br />3245 Wayzata Boulevard, Interim Use Permit, to the June 12, 2017, City Council meeting. <br />VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />Page 4 of 4 <br />
