ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD APRIL 22, 1991 (#4)ZONING FILE #1629-MCNULTY CONSTRUCTION CONTINUED We would ask Council t i also consider t.ie fact <-iiat tiie property ownar h.ts ^ivc'n ■? suostantial property Restrictions have been recorded in tae cnain o. tit e. » apolica It has expend^^d substantial funds i.o construct e accessory structure containing utility, security aa^- support facilities more than sufficient to handle this addition he is now proposing.
