�ONp CITY OF ORONO <br /> RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br /> tiF G; No. 71 7 7 <br /> 12. Perimeter Buffers, Landscaping, Fencing. In response to the discussions at the sketch <br /> plan stage,the Developer proposes to create a landscaping edge along Willow and Wayzata <br /> Blvd. The buffers are intended to provide screening from adjacent roadways into private <br /> yards. The proposed landscaping plans(Sheets 13 & 14)will be evaluated for compliance <br /> with the very detailed RPUD landscaping requirements. The Developer has indicated an <br /> intent to provide a dark-colored wrought-iron style fence along the east,west,and southern <br /> property lines, and to establish restrictions and standards for its maintenance. <br /> 13. Conformity with Zoning District Standards. In relation to the RPUD standards, there <br /> are specific guidelines for detached single family development in Zoning Code Section 78- <br /> 626(8). Section 78-626(16)provides for flexibility in RPUD standards,as follows: <br /> (16) Flexibility. The uniqueness of each RPUD requires that specifications <br /> and standards for streets, utilities, public facilities and subdivisions may be <br /> subject to modification from the city ordinances ordinarily governing them. <br /> The city council may therefore approve streets, utilities, public facilities and <br /> land subdivisions which are not in compliance with usual specifications or <br /> ordinance requirements, if it finds that strict adherence to such standards or <br /> requirements is not required to meet the intent of this section or to protect the <br /> health,safety or welfare of the residents of the RPUD,the surrounding area or <br /> the city as a whole. <br /> This proposed development concept requires a significant departure (flexibility) from the <br /> RPUD district lot standards for individual homesites. The table below identifies specific <br /> standards which require flexibility: <br /> Section Standard Conforming? <br /> 1 (1) Minimum area: 5 acres or tied Conforms to the exception: The property is <br /> to adjacent RPUD directly adjacent to or across a public street <br /> from property which has been developed <br /> previously as a RPUD and will be <br /> perceived as and will function as an <br /> extension of that previously approved <br /> development. <br /> 2 Uses.
