ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> MINUTES FOR APRIL 19, 1999 <br /> 7. #2479 PETER ANDREA COMPANY, 555 STUBBS BAY ROAD, CLASS III SUBDIVISION, <br /> III7:41 p.m. -8:19 p.m.—(cont.) <br /> Schroeder commented that in his opinion he cannot contemplate rezoning to two acres at this <br /> time for that area. <br /> Gronberg noted that there is 33 feet of right-of-way along Orchard Park Road. <br /> Weinberger stated the right-of-way had previously been dedicated from properties and City Staff is <br /> looking for right-of-way dedication for this subdivision to insure future road connections. <br /> Schroeder inquired what the Applicant has platted for the roadways. <br /> Weinberger stated there is a 33 foot wide corridor along some of the properties, with a 50 foot <br /> right-of-way is needed in this area. Weinberger commented that it would be fair to both developers to <br /> have 25 feet of right-of-way on either side of the platted road. Weinberger noted that no <br /> development is being planned at this time to the land to the west. <br /> Hawn inquired whether there were any public comments regarding this application. <br /> Jim Whelan, 14425 -38th Avenue, Plymouth, stated he also owns property near this subdivision, and <br /> expressed concerns that the proposed corridor for Highway 12 will landlock his property. Whelan <br /> commented he is interested in access off Stubbs Bay Road or somewhere else if possible. Whelan <br /> stated access from the south is not possible due to the low land located there. Waylon commented he <br /> has written a letter to MnDot regarding his access. <br /> Kevin Holmes, 585 Stubbs Bay, commented that he was glad to see the Planning Commission make <br /> provisions for wetlands and roads in new developments, but would like to see some information <br /> III regarding the easements. Holmes stated in his view Outlot B will not be buildable due to the <br /> Highway 12 corridor. <br /> Hawn remarked that it is difficult to answer most of these questions at this time due to the lack of <br /> information that has been provided by the developer. Hawn stated these issues will have to be <br /> addressed at a future Planning Commission meeting and that the residents will be notified of that <br /> hearing. <br /> Donna Gause, 480 Stubbs Bay Road North, expressed concerns regarding driveway access and <br /> the need to preserve some trees in that area which act as a windbreak. Gause commented she <br /> would also like to see the drainage problems adequately addressed for this area. <br /> Weinberger stated the developer will need to submit a drainage and grading plan that is <br /> acceptable to City Staff, which will be reviewed by the Planning Commission at the time the <br /> preliminary plat is approved. <br /> Gronberg stated they would be willing to work with the neighbors regarding some of these issues. <br /> Gronberg noted that some of the work regarding this development has been delayed due to the <br /> weather. <br /> Hawn inquired whether the representative for the Applicant would be agreeable to tabling this <br /> application in accordance with Staffs recommendation. <br /> Gronberg indicated he would agree to tabling this item, but would like some direction on how the <br /> roads should be platted. <br /> • <br /> Page 9 <br />
