MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Monday,June 17, 2019 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Thiesse stated he realizes there is a large wall down there and that perhaps they could incorporate some <br /> plantings to make the building less visible. <br /> Parker stated they will look at that, but that it would be a hardship to haul all of that equipment up the hill. <br /> Barnhart stated the first issue he heard tonight relates to the timing and that Staff would be fine with the <br /> five years. The purpose behind the timing was to avoid coming back every year to the Planning <br /> Commission for renewal of the variances. It would be appropriate for the Planning Commission to say <br /> they do not support the bluff variance since that provides feedback to the applicant and the City Council. <br /> The applicant can make changes prior to the Council meeting if they want. The last issue related to the <br /> shoreline, and similar to the bluff setback, it would be appropriate for the Planning Commission to say <br /> they do not support it rather than trying to redesign it here. <br /> Ressler stated in his view five years is reasonable and that he does not have an issue with increasing the <br /> enrollment to 200. Ressler stated he hardly knew the camp was there when he was growing up and that <br /> the public apparently does not have a concern with the use expanding. <br /> Resler stated as it relates to the setback to the bluffs,he is struggling with that request, and that he would <br /> like to pass it as proposed for the Council to weigh in on that issue. <br /> Barnhart stated the Planning Commission can support the Master Plan and then identify areas of <br /> nonsupport for the bluff and the location of the storage shed. Approval or disapproval does not mean the <br /> applicant cannot supplement their answers to the City Council. <br /> Thiesse moved,McCutcheon seconded,to recommend approval of Application No. LA19-000039, <br /> Brandstetter Carroll,Inc.,645 Tonkawa Road/Camp Teko, Conditional Use Permit,subject to a <br /> maximum enrollment of 200; granting of a variance for hardcover for the building located in the <br /> 0-75-foot setback; denial of the encroachment into the 30-footetback with the caveat that the <br /> applicant relocate the two buildings; and the imposition of a 5-year deadline on the proposed <br /> Master Plan,subject to conditions of Staff. <br /> Barnhart stated the Planning Commission is granting permission to continue to use the property <br /> indefinitely, but what it requires is that any new buildings that are not built within those five years would <br /> need to come back for renewal or an amendment to the conditional use permit. <br /> Doepke asked why Commissioner Thiesse is allowing the shed. <br /> Thiesse stated this is a camp and not a private residence. There is a steep slope in that area and there is <br /> already a wall there that the structure could be tied into. <br /> Ressler stated the structure also is not large. <br /> VOTE: Ayes 6,Nays 1, Erickson Opposed. <br /> 6.
