MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 17,1997 <br />Hawn said she would be w illing to look at eliminating Outlot A if it can be done and <br />changing the zoning. She agrees with Van Zomeren that rewriting the zoning around one <br />property is not a good solution and Commission should determine where duplexes should <br />be located in the City. <br />Bessesen said he understands the reasoning behind Van Zomeren's suggestions and the <br />need to determine what vehicle can accomplish it. <br />Hawn said the issue needs to be reviewed comprehensively. <br />Berg said researc! must be done on the history of Outlot A. Van Zomeren read the <br />minutes of the 10/3/77 Planning Commission Meeting regarding Outlot A. She asked if <br />the docks could be re-established for each duplex in order to eliminate Outlot A. Berg <br />said the townhomes first have to be reviewed. Lindquist said rezoning can then be done. <br />Van Zomeren said the existing townhomes and this site could be rezoned and the density <br />changed by text amendment using 400’ or less. She noted she is not particularly in favor <br />of using a distance measurement. She would prefer to eliminate the duplex credit as it <br />currently exists. <br />Jabbour informed the Commission how the duplex credit was established with the <br />Shoreland Ordinance in the early 1990's. He noted there would be two PUDs for <br />consideration in the near future. Jabbour thought the areas could be changed and the <br />application done as a PUD. Van Zometen said because the property does not quality for <br />a conditional use permit, she does not believe it meets the acreage requirement for PUD. <br />21 <br />1
