The City is requesting the agreement in order to open a temporary road. S;msevere asked if Option 3 is a worst^case sc^ B 'Urett said that all of the scenarios involve some reliance on the reasonableness and goodwill oi‘Mn/DOT. Mn/DOT has not agreed to anything in writing. S;insevere asked if there is a fourth contingency. Barrett said he raised that issue, but that would involve the City of Orono condemning Mn/DOT*s land and h would not be feasible. S msevere asked if Option 1 is the most likely scenario. Ciappa said staff is more confident in Option 2. Xtbbcur said he wants the driveway lined up with Brimhall. Kelley said he doesn’t mind the abrupt right turn into the property, but he is concerned about fitture development of Lot 2 and an increase in traffic that would make egress from Service g:K) difficult. He feels there should be an alternate access for Service 800 and more room for stacking of vehicles. Kelley said he favors Option 2, but he wants to keep Option 3 available. J^ibbour said he understands that staff is recommending all three options so that if Option 1 or 2 is not feasible, Option 3 would be the faUback option. h loorse said that if Option 1 or 2 is viable, then Option 3 will no longer be available. Kelley stud there could be an agreement with Mr. Otten that if Lot 2 is developed, he would b: willing to review the location of the entrance tu Service 800. Sansevere asked how many cars would be leaving the Service 800 property at one time and v'hether there would be a stacking problem from the developer's standpoint. J<jan Mork Bredeson said there will only be 15 employees and there would probably be three vehicles leaving at one time. Kelley said he wants the Council to think about the development that may happen in 10 or 15 years.
