MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, August 19,2002 <br />6:30 o’clock p.m. <br />(#02-2782 ORONO PROFESSIONAL PROPERTIES, Continued) <br />Dr. Berg felt it would adversely affect those patients receiving dental treatments near the <br />windows at that comer of the building. <br />Smith asked if landscape screening could offset the privacy of patients. <br />Dr. Berg believed landscaping would help, but the tenants would not want to hide the signage. <br />Smith indicated that more could be done with window dressings to assist in screening. <br />Mabusth asked if the applicants could commence building a pemianent drainage pond as <br />opposed to the temporary solution proposed earlier. <br />Gaffron noted that this could be resolved later with the development of properties further to the <br />east. No one had looked at this question yet, but these details would be worked out prior to final <br />resolution. <br />Mabusth inquired about sidewalk access along Kelley Parkway. <br />Gaffron stated that the sidewalk for this property would straddle their property line, be 6 ’ wide, <br />8 ’ off the edge of the pavement and 20’ from parking, meeting City requirements. <br />Mabusth asked if the applicants would be responsible for landscaping along both Kelley <br />Parkway and Highway 12. <br />While they do have landscaping requirements, Gaffron noted that the City would need to give <br />them better definition of what should happen along Kelley Parkway. They will need to submit a <br />landscaping plan to meet the requirements. The developers of the Dahlstrom property have <br />suggested that they would provide the City with some ideas of strcetscape for Kelley Parkway. <br />Gaffron stated that the City would obviously like this to match that proposal, but frankly, the <br />City hadn ’t gotten that far yet. <br />Hawn reiterated that no concrete plans can really be made until the City knows if the County will <br />fill in the ditch. <br />Gaffron indicated that discussions with the County are in the early stages, and he would consider <br />holding off on forcing this trail to be built until some of the County decisions are made. <br />Mabusth cautioned that this could be a ways off. <br />PAGE 5 of 28
