MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON MARCH 27,1995 (#6 Hillside Place Administrative Appeal - Continued) Callahan said the agreement shows that the City does not plan on opening Wallace Avenue, which should result in denial of the appeal. Dahl countered that she had been in discussions with Gerhardson during the whole process about accessing on Wallace City Attorney Barrett said that the agreement, though, was with Segner. The access was first denied in September of 1994 Moorse commented that the denial was given during the same time as the resolution for the lot line rearrangement. Jabbour saw the issue as whether the City had future plans for Wallace Avenue, which it does not. Whether Dahl could be allowed access was a different issue Wallace is only a 20' road with an existing house that is 9-1/2' from the road; whereas Hillside Place is already 25* in width and access has already been granted. Callahan asked if Dahl would like this appeal tabled until the full Council was present to which she agreed.
