UPDATE ON SEPTEMBER 14,2020 COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Barnhart noted last month,the Commission reviewed five applications, one was a variance for area, <br /> width, structural coverage at 3435 Crystal Bay Road, and the Commission recommended denial. The <br /> Applicant, after hearing the Commission's feedback,made changes such that the structural coverage <br /> variance was no longer valid or necessary, so the Council ultimately approved that on consent. He noted <br /> regarding the appeal for the use on Navarre for the motorcycle storage,that Applicant withdrew his <br /> application so it did not go to the City Council. The preliminary plat and comp plan amendment for 135 <br /> Orono Orchard Road(Gordon James project), was supported by the City Council, so the comp plan <br /> amendment will be moving forward to the Met Council. The preliminary plan at 1700 Shoreline Drive <br /> was tabled; Council has some concerns regarding the average lakeshore setback and the views, so they've <br /> tabled it until October 12,2020. <br /> Libby said he watched the meeting and asked if the tabling was a recommendation of the Applicant. <br /> Barnhart replied yes,the Applicant requested it be tabled after much discussion. <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> Libby moved,Erickson seconded,to adjourn the Planning Commission Meeting. VOTE: Ayes 5, <br /> Nays 0. <br /> The Orono Planning Commission meeting adjourned at 9:27 p.m. <br /> ATTEST: <br /> Jon Ressler, Chair <br /> Page 27 of 27 <br />
