MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Monday,May 17,2021 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> Snyder's building with a similar situation. He would rather see this application as a CUP or PUD so it is <br /> still one parcel but the Commission gets to see it in its entirety and possibly realign the access to the site. <br /> Ressler agrees that is a good point to make it a Planned Unit Development(PUD)so it would have <br /> common areas for the access in and out.He said the issue with the Starbucks in Wayzata is a good point <br /> and he pointed out the McDonald's right next door to it,and a gas station,and a strip mall,all sharing that <br /> space. It is a nightmare no matter what they are doing and the traffic counts are probably a bit heavier <br /> there. He is more encouraged to think about the Caribou in Mound on Shoreline Drive where there does <br /> not seem to be as much of an issue getting in and out of there. <br /> McCutcheon clarified they do not want to access Kelly because it is a residential street. <br /> Barnhart replied yes, and because of the grade issues.Any access on to Shoreline would be further east of <br /> Kelly which would be beneficial from a traffic movement standpoint.Assuming it is not a PUD,a drive <br /> through restaurant will be a Conditional Use Permit(CUP)back through the Commission. If it is a PUD <br /> the zone change will come back through the Commission. The Council will see this on June 14,2021 <br /> 8.UPDATE ON MAY 10,2021 CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Barnhart reported the variance for 3215 Crystal Bay Road was approved by the Council 3-1;the variance <br /> at 706 North Arm was tabled for a redesign;variance at 1395 Orono Lane was tabled due to the relocation <br /> of the boat house. <br /> Kirchner noted that relocating a boat house was something that historically is never done in the City or <br /> allowed and that was the Council's opinion as well. <br /> Barnhart stated the text amendment for boat storage was approved, and the text amendment for plumbing <br /> in accessory buildings was also approved. The Council gave feedback on 2709 Walters Port that seemed <br /> to support the proposal. <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> Libby moved,Ressler seconded,to adjourn the Planning Commission Meeting.VOTE: Ayes 7, <br /> Nays 0.The Orono Planning Commission meeting adjourned at 9:09 p.m. <br /> ATTEST: <br /> Scott Kirchner,Chair <br /> Page 21 of 21 <br />
