MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />HELD AUGUST 16, 1993 <br />ZONING FILE /S'lSOS - CONT <br />Peterson stated that it is in the City's long-term N st interest to get people hooked up to sewer <br />if at all possible. <br />Callahan said he is not at all sure if Metropolitan Council feels it is in their best interest. <br />Nolan asked because of the additional capacity they don’t feel they have it. <br />Mabusth explained in connection with the Orono sewer property, we are asking for a portion of <br />the property to be included in the MUSA. We have received conceptual approval from the Park <br />Board to take 5 acres of land from Norerenberg Park located in MUSA in exchange tor a 4 1/2 <br />acre parcel of City land. <br />Peterson inquired if a trade is necessary'^ <br />Mabusth explained that is how it is kept as a simple Comp Plan Amendment. They will give <br />us no problem with Mr. Nettles' shoreland property but interior undeveloped rural areas are <br />looked upon differently although we could certainly claim shoreland area as it is on a Natural <br />Environment Lake. We will check on this matter. <br />Peterson asked if the homeowner pays for all costs. <br />Mabusth said the owner pays approximately S 17,000 tor sewer connection to City and a hookup <br />fee to create new stub. <br />Peterson asked if the park status would change in the future and may want to be tied into <br />MUSA. <br />Hurr commented it is stipulated to not even have walking paths. <br />Mabusth noted the area is a peninsula and based on setbacks would not bt buildable. <br />It was moved by Smith, seconded by Schroeder, to recommend approval o*'Application #1848 <br />Ci.y of Orono. 1940 Shoreline Drive - 1000 Old Crystal Bay Road, Comprehensive Plan <br />^mendment No. 5 with the stipulation that they are going to look into possibly not having an <br />exchange of property if Environmental Lake area could be considered.
