CITY OF ORONO <br /> RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br /> NO. 6771 <br /> EKES H OAF <br /> 3. The Property is zoned RR-1B One-family Rural Residential District requiring a <br /> minimum lot area of 2.00 acres and a minimum lot width of 200 feet. The Property <br /> is approximately 26 acres in area of which approximately 13 acres is wetland and <br /> approximately 10 acres is a closed landfill. <br /> 4. The Property and an adjacent parcel are the subject of City of Orono Resolution <br /> No. 6655 which grants preliminary plat approval for a 27-lot single family <br /> residential development within the adjacent parcel and within a portion of the <br /> Property. <br /> 5. The site plan suggests that temporary lighting may be employed, and it is possible <br /> that to minimize impact on traffic flow, some work on the highway improvements <br /> may be at night. It would be appropriate to establish that any temporary lighting be <br /> downcast and directed away from residential areas. <br /> 6. The submitted site plan indicates a proposed visual and noise-screening berm along <br /> the west and south boundaries of the site. Applicant is working with the MPCA to <br /> establish parameters and obtain permits for this berm, which will become an <br /> amenity for future residential development, but has not received the necessary <br /> permits. <br /> The applicants' narrative suggests that this site might be used as a recycling yard <br /> for projects other than just the Wayzata Boulevard improvements. <br /> 8. Review per Zoning Code Section 78-916. The Interim Use standards require that <br /> an IUP request be considered with respect to the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) <br /> standards of Zoning Code Section 78-916. Following is an analysis of the requested <br /> IUP in relation to those standards. Council's findings following each criterion are <br /> shown in bold italics. <br /> Conditional Use Permit Analysis <br /> Conditional use permit approval shall be granted only when the following <br /> criteria are met: <br /> (1) The proposed Interim Use is consistent with the Community Management <br /> Plan(CMP).
