MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Tuesday,January 19,2021 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> Bollis agreed but he still thinks they could do away with it; however,perhaps they want to take baby- <br /> steps in that direction. <br /> Chair Ressler said this is a good start and they can always take the feedback and entertain a change later <br /> on. He knows the City Council wants to be cautious to make sure there are not positions being created <br /> that would make it more difficult to measure. He asked if anyone is opposed to the 30%as being too <br /> large. <br /> Erickson moved,Gettman seconded,to approve LA 21-02 City of Orono Text Amendment Related <br /> To Dry Buildable Definition as applied.VOTE: Ayes 6,Nays 0. <br /> Barnhart asked if they had a public hearing. <br /> Chair Ressler did not and noted there is no one in the room but he will do a public hearing and they can <br /> go back to that motion. <br /> Chair Ressler opened the public hearing at 8:41 p.m. <br /> There were no public comments regarding the application. <br /> Chair Ressler closed the public hearing at 8:41 p.m. <br /> Erickson moved, Gettman seconded,to approve La21-02 City of Orono Text Amendment Related <br /> To Dry Buildable Definition as applied.VOTE: Ayes 6,Nays 0. <br /> 7. Planning Commission Liaison to City Council Meetings <br /> Barnhart tried to publish the liaison assignments through March 2022 as the Planning Commissioner's <br /> terms end in March every year so rather than try to scramble to figure out the last three months,he created <br /> it this way. If there are any changes or issues, he asked the Commissioners to let him know. He does not <br /> think it is critical if one must miss a meeting;they should let Barnhart know and he will alert the Council. <br /> Chair Ressler asked if they can note who the next liaison is on the agenda it would be helpful. Then after <br /> the meeting they can find out if that Commissioner has a conflict and find a replacement. <br /> Barnhart does not have an update on the previous Council meeting as they have not reviewed planning <br /> items since December. <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> Kirchner moved,Bollis seconded,to adjourn the Planning Commission Meeting. VOTE: Ayes 6, <br /> Nays 0. <br /> The Orono Planning Commiss'on meeting adjourned at 8:44 p.m. <br /> ATTEST: <br /> Jon Ressler,Chair <br /> Page 28 of 28 <br />
