r <br />MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON JULY 28,1997 <br />(^17 BID AWARD GOLF COURSE IRRIGATION SYSTEM Continued) <br />Kelley asked how this project will affect capital improvements in relationship to the <br />MacMillan property adjacent to the golf course. Moorse said a portion of the tee boxes <br />ai^ located on the MacMillan property. Gappa said he would review this situation. <br />Moorse was asked to explain the situation. Moorse said when the course was <br />constructed, a portion of two tee boxes were constructed on the adjacent property. There <br />was originally a lease agreement with the adjacent property owner. The operation of the <br />golf course has continued without this being an issue. The issue was readdressed when <br />plans for improvements began which required additional land and easements. A letter <br />was sent to the property owner. The property owner asked for consideration of a <br />driveway access for their property to Orono Orchard Road. Staff was not in favor of <br />such access as it was located along the Luce Line. An easement would have been <br />required from the City for this driveway. Legal issues regarding the tee-boxes and <br />driveway are being reviewed. Moorse said the property owners require only a minor <br />amount of additional property, as they already have nearly a complete corridor for the <br />driveway. <br />Kelley asked how this affects the irrigation system. Moorse said a portion of the system <br />is planned to be installed on the tee-boxes which are on the adjacent property. <br />Jabbour asked Gappa not to encroach into the adjacent property owner's property. <br />Goetten said she would like to see the big picture of what is occurring noting there is no <br />need for a subdivision application. <br />Moorse said staff is reviewing the impact to the Luce Line, golf course, and traffic <br />safety, which he will review with the property owner. He said no capital improvements <br />would be located on private property and a time table for the project would be <br />developed. <br />Kelley said he knew the property owners were in support of the golf course.
