O O <br /> ti <br /> CITY of ORONO <br /> �� G~ RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br /> �`9kESg0g� N0. ' y <br /> 3. "Motor fuel station"is allowed as a conditional use in the I district per Zoning Code <br /> Section 10.50 Subd. 3(A)(4). <br /> 4. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on May 19, 2003 and <br /> recommended approval by a vote of 5 to 0. <br /> 5.
