8) Final decisions by the Developer regarding colors, types and qualities of building materials shall be subject to Council approval. The proposed residential buildings shall be subject to the Development Standards for Attached and Multi-Family Dwelling Structures for the RPUD District per Zoning Code Section 10.33, Subd. 5(G). The separation distances between townhomc buildings are generally acceptable as shown on the approved General Concept Plan, with the majority being at least 15' at the nearest point with greater separation as the building walls diverge. Any separations less than 15* shall be reviewed to determine if a greater separation is feasible, and Developer shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the City Council that suitable architectural styling, building orientation or other methods will be used to mitigate the lack of separation. The Orono Fire Marshal shall review the building separations and any revisions required for fire-protection purposes shall be made by the Developer. The berm along the Public Worics site east boundary may be extended eastward to assist in establishing a buffer to the Lofts; however, any buffer walls, plantings or other improvements shall be located on the Lofts site as shown in the approved General Concept Plan. The Developer shall take extraordinary efforts to minimize impacts on existing vegetation and enhance screening and buffering in the area northwest of the Lofts west building. A disclosure regarding the Lofts buildings proximity to Public Works shall be required of Lofts buyers to help limit the expected complaints about City activity and noise from the Public Works site. All residential buildings including the Lofts shall have pitched roofs rather than flat roofs to maintain a rural residential character. Roofs for the Lofts units shall be low-pitched rather than steeply pitched to decrease the impact of excess building height. Page 11 of 21
