4<- W n' mr-4( Zoning File #1738 June 11, 1992 Page 5 The facility will require the extension of municipal sewer and water. The City Engineer recommends the force main be extended from the manhole 800' south of entrance road to Orono school expansion plat (review Exhibit K) and then through the property via the outlot to the hockey arena building. Water can be extended from Old Crystal Bay Road or via the south from the City's new water tower and water lines. These are matters that must be worked out with the school district, the owner of the property. It is most important that if this use is approved and for this location that applicants' site plan specifically address buffering and shielding the residential properties to north and east. Lighting should also be designed to address the w-iiie concern in additioj^ to all planned outt ’oor activities. Keview of Issues Related to Orono School Expansion Subdivision Please review Exhibits K and L. The plat was created as a means to facilitate the purchasing of land by the school district from the former owner. The school district cannot purchase land via contract and had to purchase under a fee title. The four parcels were specifically divided and the school district was to acquire fee title over a 10-year period of time. The City and the school district entered into an agreement whereby the City would agree upon the acquisition of all four parcels by the school district to va'^ate the road outlot and all public easements as shown on the plat. It is the City's understanding that the school district is in the process of completing final acquisition of the fourth parcel. It was then the intention cf the school to legally combine all four parcels and Outlot A into one parcel for future school use. The issue for the City now is how does the current subdivision impact the original agreements for the Orono school expansion. The subject parcel will no longer be owned by the school district. In order to meet the intent of the Comprehensive Plan access to site must be from interior roads. Can the City vacate Outlot A? How can City provide utilities to the eastern portions of corridor as well as the Orono Sports Facility if all easement are to be vacated? As all utilities are located either within Old Crystal Bay Road or to the south within Ciyt property, it is neccessary to expand utilities from west to east through this property, especially if we are ever to realize looped systems to the existing lines at the southeast corner of this corridor (at Willow and Highway 12 intersection). Review of Issues to be Resolved for Applicauit 1.Is the ice hockey arena similar to the uses already listed in the conditional use permit or is a code amendment required or is the use not compatible with existing residential zoning? w 1
