MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON MAY 12,1997 <br />(#10 Spring Hill Golf Club - Continued) <br />flV-D) Intersection Upgrades - Gafiron reported that Staff and Planning Commission <br />agree with the County recommendation for a by-pass lane at Hunter and CoRd 6. Since <br />the upgrade would be development driven, H was recommended that the applicant be <br />required to pay for this upgrade. Council agreed. <br />nV-E^ Trail System - The Park Commission had discussed a comprehensive trail. The <br />applicant has agreed to cooperate to the extent possible. <br />Jabbour said ht ; met with the applicant on this date reviewing the layout of the trail. The <br />applicpiit did not feel the trail as outlined was possible. The applicant would like to meet <br />with representatives of the Park Commission and Council to identify the trail location <br />after first determining the right-of-way. Jabbour said it would be counterproductive to <br />discuss this issue any further until the additional information was determined. <br />The layout of the trail as recommended by the Park Commission was reviewed. The trail <br />would be a walking path about 4-5' wide made of a natural or wood chip surface. <br />Hunter said the trail plan can be worked out. <br />nV-F't UtHitv Needs - There was no recommendation regarding this issue. <br />nV-G^ Tunnel Under CoRd 6 - GafFron reported that it is the County’s intent to contract <br />with the City regarding the tunnel as the County will not enter into an agreement with a <br />private developer. The City could then reassign certain responsibilities to the applicant. <br />Jabbour said he discussed this issue with the applicant. He said the City normally would <br />not be an agent for an applicant but thought an exception may be made in this case. He <br />suggested acceptance ot a trail plan and possiDie construction and mamtenance ot said <br />trail would be a trade-off. The City could then assume some of the responsibilities for the <br />tunnel and pass others onto the applicant. Crosby said the County does not want to work <br />with a private developer regarding inspections. He thought the City's involvement would <br />be mainly inspection reports. Flint suggested this may work similar to the arrangement <br />with the baseball association. Jabbour noted that the City would not enter such an <br />agreement with the ice arena regarding stormwater pond maintenance. <br />rVl-A'l Archaeological/historical sites - Braman said the archaeologist has complet^ <br />phase n for the west site and found nothing of significance. There was no foundation <br />found. Jabbour verified that there were no buildings.
