MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, July 17, 2017 <br />6:30 o'clock p.m. <br />Staff recommends approval of the project but a number of issues still need to be addressed prior to <br />issuance of building permits or approval of the project. Barnhart noted this was reviewed last summer as <br />a sketch plan. Since that time some minor changes, such as shifting of the driveway access, have been <br />made to the plan. Staff's report includes a number of comments regarding the outstanding items and <br />issues. <br />Barnhart stated the applicant is not proposing access onto Wayzata Boulevard. The proposal does meet <br />the parking requirements based on the International Transportation Engineers' recommendations. <br />Barnhart noted the City does not have parking numbers required for this type of use so Staff used those <br />numbers to determine whether the parking would be appropriate.. <br />Thiesse asked what the ITE number for vehicle loading would be for commercial was. <br />Barnhart indicated he did not look that up for an office building. <br />Lemke asked if the stormwater would be handled by the stormwater pond to the east and whether that has <br />enough capacity. <br />Barnhart indicated the stormwater pond to the east was designed for anticipated development of the entire <br />Stonebay project and would be able to accommodate this building. Additional stormwater ponding is <br />necessary because the stormwater from Wayzata Boulevard will be added to the pond. <br />Lemke asked if this is the same developer as previously. <br />Barnhart stated not to his knowledge. <br />Thiesse asked if there is a reason Staff is requesting a trail easement since Highway 112 will have a trail <br />along it. <br />Barnhart stated it is expected that eventually a trail will be provided, whether it is on this property or on <br />Highway 112. <br />Page 3 of 11 <br />
