r K* i i' k’'. ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD APRIL 22, 1991 (|17)LMCD COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CONTINUED change at t’lis time ar. to how wo proceed or. the s.iorelan^ regulations, we can either proceed jointly with ■: .e LMCD, or with DNR in this umbrella organization, we can try to get a separate grant, or just proceed separately and not obtain a grant." Jabbour stated that he had meeting. He indicat*td that .le JoEllen Hurr put forth on Orono's in his opinion, Orono is quite a lakeshore communities, and that it to wait for those communities to a‘.tended the April ITt i LMCD w.as pleased with the efforts behalf. He also stated that, few steps ahead of some other would be detrimental for Orono catch up. He said, ’I also that Orono is going t.** have to d«ial w. th tne DMR in respect to t.he remaining cities. The City will have to expend an enormous aiiount of money and effort out of o‘ir budget, in light )f the new Technical Advisory Committee, so they can sit down and gat all the cities up to speed." Callahan commented that the discussion ihat is taking place among the 14 cities regarding the shoreland regulations is a pure waste of everyone’s time. He said, "However, the other cities do not seem to realize that. T;»ey might as well stop talking about the LMCD and start talking to the DNR. When they get around to that, they tan make all their objections to the DHR. I have 3^i*^ovis reservations about joining the Technical Committee, though we do not need tn decide that a?: this moment. I also agr«e that we ought to get our view of the shorelaiid regulations decided upon and proceed. I believe that CounciImember Jabbour agrees with that." Jabbour did agree and said, "We would end up having a sample Ordinance, showing what we think should be done." t:allahan said, "The DNR i=» hoping that the Technical Committee will be formed and will have veto power c .er what the other cities are doing. However, that hts nnt y.vt b=en determined. In other words, if Spring Park did not an-ae with something we were doing in our shoreland management, ..len tuey would have veto power over that, and so on around the lake. It is difficult for ro«? to think of the time wasted by getting involved in a struggle with any other lakeshore community over their ordinances. I nave severe reservations about the plan that they are adopting, let alone the legal consequences of the plan, which they think it has." Callahan suggested that the draft of principles be finalized (correcting spelling errors, as noted by Councilmembe.r Goetten), and then sant tn the 14 cities with a letter stating that it represents Orono*s ideas. - 22 -
