To; <br />From: <br />Date: <br />Subject: <br />Orono Planning Commission Members <br />Mayor Callahan and Orono Councilmembers <br />Ron Moorse, City Administrator <br />Jeanne A. Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator <br />March 10. 1994 <br />#1902 Dan R. Guenlhner, 120 Golden View Drive - Conditional Use Permit <br />Resolution <br />Brief Review of Application <br />Mr. Guenthner has received approval via a conditional use permit for the temporar> use <br />of a greenhouse on the Dickey pioperty located to the immediate south of the subject property <br />for the past two years. As the Dickey site is currently being considered for subdivision, the area <br />is no longer available for applicant ’s use. Applicant proposes to install a temporary greenhouse <br />and plant a crop of 3.5 acres on the Hallson property consisting of 8.6 acres. The temporary <br />greenhouse at 14 ’ x 60’ and a maximum 10 ’ height will be installed to the immediate south of <br />the planted field. Discussion as to the suitability of this site for planting was never discussed <br />in depth by Planning Commission as there were no neighbors in attendance. The 3.5 acre field <br />had been planted with crops this last year and neighbors have obviously no concern with the <br />continued use of the area for the growing of crops. <br />Because of the limitation in area as compared to the Dickey site, it is recommended that <br />at the time the structure is dismantled that it be stored off-site and not on Mr. Hallson ’s <br />property. <br />The temporary greenhouse will be in use commencing March 25th through June 15th, <br />similar to the same duration of time proposed for temporary greenhouse on Dickey site. <br />The applicant advised that he would not be using the Suess property to the immediate east <br />for planting as property is currently being considered for subdivision. Additional planting areas <br />will be provided further west, possibly in another city. Applicant has no plans to sell crops at <br />site. Please review tne enclosed staff memo for more background on this review. <br />Planning Commission Recommendation <br />The Planning Commission recommended unanimous approval of the conditional use <br />permit for the temporary use of the greenhouse on the Hallson property located at 120 Golden <br />View Drive. The enclosed approval resolution has been drafted per the findings and conditions <br />of the Planning Commission ’s recommendation of approval.
