ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES FOR MARCH 24,1997 (#7 - #2218 Jyland Development Inc. - Continued) Park Commission will review this application at their April 7, 1997 meeting. The applicant had requested preliminary approval by the Council prior to the Park Commission's review. Council members were concerned about the wording of the park fees to be paid by the applicant.

Should the Park Commission recommend a land dedication, which is then approved by the City Council as part of the final plat approval process, the developer will receive a credit for the land dedication as per the Park Fee Ordinance.
