MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING <br />HELD AUGUST 23, 1993 <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT - CONT. <br />Fence. <br />Melamed wants to build a fence into the City ’s 50’ corridor around the comer <br />because it is a direct extension of the existing fence. Mayor Callahan would not <br />object but would add that when the City needed this space, the fence would have <br />to be removed. <br />Hazardous waste. <br />At this time there is no evidence of any hazardous waste but Melamed would ask <br />that the City be responsible for the removal of any hazardous waste if there was <br />any found. Mayor Callahan did not think the City should warranty or indemnify <br />this matter. Jabbour did not want to see more than the purchase price of <br />$300,000 spent at some time in the future for hazardous waste clean-up. <br />Subdivision of parcel. <br />Melamed would like to be able to subdivide tbe property prior to the original <br />agreement to wait 5 years. Mayor Callahan would prefer to stay with the original <br />agreement. Jabbour stated that he had talked with the buyer ’s lawyer and the <br />City is changing the agreement to limit access to the road to maintenance vehicles <br />only. Jabbour thought this may be an issue to negotiate. Since the City wants <br />to change the limited access agreement, they could agree to remove the 5 year <br />restriction for subdivision. They could offer the land to the buyer subject to soil <br />borings being done and Phase I and II being done on the Environmental <br />Assessment. Council agreed to remove the 5 year restriction for subdivision. <br />C) Mayor Callahan asked Gerhardson if the gas tanks were ready to go yet. Gerhardson <br />confinned that they were not. <br />Goetten asked that three items be considered: <br />1) Support of the Council in the upgrade of County Road 15. She would like to see <br />no increase in the speed limit trom Orono Orchard Road to Highway 12. An <br />alternative she would suggest is to have more frequent patrols. She noted the <br />speed limit is 50 mph and people have passed her at 60+ mph. Hurr asked if <br />Sullivan could provide information and enforcement of the speed limit in this area <br />prior to the informational meeting that is scheduled. <br />8 <br />k
