MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, June 24,2002 <br />7:00 o’clock p.m. <br />(n02‘27SS BRAD AND CAROL PASS - Continued) <br />Finally, Mr. Alcon suggested that the City consider 33’ right-of-way, which would be consistent <br />with what has been previously dedicated along the corridor, in fact, to go wider the wetlands will <br />be adversely impacted. <br />Attorney Barrett asked who currently owns the additional 20 acres that is to be granted the <br />conservation easement. <br />Mr. Pass indicated that his wife’s family owns the property and they are in negotiation to obtain <br />the property in order to conserve it. <br />Barrett questioned how access will be gained to the land. <br />Weinberger explained that since there w'ill be conservation land dedicated on most of this land, <br />there is no need to improve the current access road. <br />Barrett pointed out that the land docs not yet belong to the Passes and more needs to be done to <br />ensure that the land will be accessible if the sale does not go through and development ensues. <br />Mr. Alcon indicated that the final plat will not be filed until they own the property. He continued <br />that due to a “like exchange swap’’ they are negotiating, they cannot do more at this time that <br />might jeopardize them. <br />Murphy questioned if the Council could simply limit the development on that property. <br />Barrett suggested including such a development limitation in the motion. <br />Mr. Pass pointed out that the City docs have the ultimate control over what is developed on those <br />20 acres. He reiterated that they are buying the property to save it from development. <br />Barrett recommended that he be allowed to work with the applicant’s attorney to identify the <br />appropriate number of homes to limit the development to if need be. <br />Mr. Alcon gave Attorney Barrett a draft letter of intent for his review. <br />Mr. Barrett felt this was a good start. <br />With regard to storm water and dedication fees. Mayor Peterson asked for comment. <br />Gaffron stated that the storm water fee rationale was based on properties 2 to S acres and the <br />costs associated with developing and doing plans for these larger parcels. <br />PAGE 11 of 17
