MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Monday,March 8,2021 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> 26. LA21-000014—MARK RAUSCH AND AZIZ SADDIQUI OB/O UNIVERSITY OF ST. <br /> THOMAS AND DAVID WEEKLY HOMES,NW CORNER OF WILLOW AND WAYZATA <br /> BLVD.,COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT,ZONE CHANGE,PRELIMINARY PLAT, <br /> AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPROVAL—RESOLUTION NO. 7177—Continued <br /> AttorneyMattick noted theycan approve all four actions with one motion. <br /> Pp <br /> Johnson asked whether they want to wait for the clarification from the Met Council that they are still <br /> within the range and it will not trigger different density. <br /> Barnhart noted that is an option. The Staff portion suggested that the four-unit difference over the next 20 <br /> years is within the acceptable limits,and it seems reasonable to Barnhart. However, if the Council wants <br /> to hold off until that answer comes back. <br /> Johnson asked if they can make it subject to that. <br /> Barnhart clarified when the Council approves the Comp Plan amendment,they are directing him to <br /> initiate the application to the Met Council and they will find out then. <br /> Johnson asked if it is subject to getting that approval. <br /> Barnhart said it would be subject to their approval. All of the other approvals,the preliminary plat,the <br /> Master Plan,the zone change, are all predicated on the approval of the Comp Plan amendment. <br /> Johnson stated that is pretty relevant that Met Council accepts that as reasonable. <br /> Walsh asked how long it would take to get that from the Met Council. <br /> Barnhart was hoping for it to come in today but he has learned if they say one week...add two. He would <br /> hope to hear by the end of this month. <br /> Crosby said they are talking the difference of four units. <br /> Barnhart said yes. <br /> Walsh said it would probably make sense to say, if they like all the things they are seeing,to make a <br /> motion to direct Barnhart contingent upon those four conditions,just like the conversation he has already <br /> had. <br /> Johnson stated they could just make a motion to draft. <br /> Attorney Mattick noted they have already drafted the resolution. <br /> Crosby said they make the motion with the four items in there and that is how they go. <br /> Johnson asked if Mr. Saddiqui was going to give an opinion on it. <br /> Page 15 of 24 <br />
