MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />April 17, 2023 <br />6:00 o'clock p.m. <br />Bollis noted there was no official vote on the proposal at this time it sounds like we're mostly in favor and <br />could approve something like this. I think the sticking point and something they might want to articulate <br />better would be how and where a house could fit on that lot with the typography. <br />Curtis reminded the Commission the application could be handled in two ways. The applicant can make a <br />formal variance application for the non -conformities that have been listed, and then proceed, if approved, <br />with an administrative boundary line adjustment, or they can be directed to make a formal preliminary <br />plat application so they would be re -platting the lots rather than rearranging the lot lines with variances. <br />Commissioners said they thought the variance process would be simpler and the best approach. <br />9. PLANNING COMMISSION LIASION FOR CITY COUNCIL SCHEDULE <br />Oakden explained the Commission annually approves assignments for Commissioners to attend City <br />Council meetings in case there are questions or concerns. She said a schedule was included in the packet. <br />Staff is asking for a motion to adopt the schedule through March of 2024. <br />Commissioners discussed a conflict on the schedule and agreed to exchange assigned dates. <br />Libby moved, Kirchner seconded, to adopt the planning commission liaison schedule as amended. <br />VOTE: Ayes: 6, Nays 0. <br />10. UPDATE ON APRIL 10, 2023 CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Oakden updated the Commissioners that there was one item at the April 10, 2023 meeting and that was <br />a conditional use permit for a golf club parking lot project. The City Council adopted that on their consent <br />agenda. She also said a resident had applied for a planning commission and will be interviewed for the <br />open alternate position at an upcoming planning City Council work session. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />Kraemer moved, McCutcheon seconded, to adjourn the Planning Commission Meeting.
