• <br />MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON MARCH 20, 1995 <br />(#11 - Other Issues for Discussion - Continued) <br />Rowlette made several comments on the meeting with the Park Commission. She said it <br />was an important discovery that the Planning Commission could take land instead of <br />money for park dedication. Rowlette felt this would be a great tool in future applications. <br />The Park Commissioners had noted that they did not get copies of Planning Commission <br />activities until after they had occurred. Mabusth said that preliminary subdivision <br />application forms were now being sent to the members of the Park Commission. Rowlette <br />suggested that the Park Commissioners send a representative to the Planning Commission <br />meetings. Mabusth said that Flint would like to see sketch plan reviews. Schroeder <br />commented that the Park Commission is a powerful planning tool for the Planning <br />Commission. He also noted the need to take into account the trail system in future <br />planning. It was reported that Park Dedication can take 8% of any undeveloped land <br />where a subdivision is going to be done. Rowlette said the Park Commission is also going <br />to have available maps of large parcels of land to identify that land in which they are <br />interested for fixture park development. Schroeder commented on the need for the Park <br />Commission to come up with a plan for future park land for the City. There is financial <br />incentive for people to give large parcels/easements to relieve themselves of the tax <br />burden. <br />• ADDITIONAL ITEMS <br />( #12) PLANNING COMMISSION APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF THE <br />FEBRUARY 22, 1995 MEETING <br />• <br />Schroeder moved, Lindquist seconded, to approve the Minutes of the Planning <br />Commission Meeting of February 22, 1995.
