r <br />1 • <br />MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCILMEETING HELD ON <br />DECEMBER 8,1997 <br />Jabbour asked for Council direction. <br />Goetten asked Barrett is it was fairly conclusive that approval should be granted as <br />meeting conditions. Barrett said that was true as far as density is concerned. <br />Gleason noted that the goal was for affordability and cost would increase if two <br />buildings were eliminated and a cul*de-sac added. He felt the private driveway aids <br />affordability. He noted the encumbrance of trees as well noting he was trying to meet <br />alot of criteria with the plan. <br />Jabbour said the code is specific in its regard to cul-de-sacs. He noted the market price <br />is already over the limit of affordable housing. Jabbour indicated no hardship was <br />shown. Jabbour said either the code should be adhered to or the code changed. Jabbour <br />concluded that because of the density allowed by code and with the cul-de-sac, it would <br />result in a loss of trees. Gleason said he would not word it as such but because the <br />landscape architect gave specific directions. <br />Kelley noted the cul-de-sac would be located at the end of the private driveway. If unit <br />W1 was eliminated, there would be room for a cul-de-sac. Gleason said he understood <br />that but was trying to accommodate several trees but would support the cul-de-sac. <br />- muii.-•r ■ < .1* <br />! ^1 <br />IkJ 11 k UA a —.....
