ORONO REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING HELD OCTOBER 8, 1990 <br />LAFAYETTE RIDGE CONTINUED <br />The residents asked if they needed to come back for the next <br />meeting if this is not acted on at this meeting. Council noted <br />that they were in attendance and JoEllen Hurr will be their <br />spokesperson at the next meeting. They asked for clarification <br />on why the decision is being postponed. <br />Callahan explained that this issue has come up <br />occassionally. In this case, the Planned Unit Development had <br />special zoning/building restrictions and part of that is relative <br />to the next part of the problem. The Comprehensive Plan suggests <br />that public streets should serve PUD's and would need further <br />research as to the intent of this section. <br />Mabusth referred to the Parten/Bayside property. As a PHD, <br />you didn't have to exclude the area of the road. If someone went <br />in now and made a public road, then a recalculation of the lot <br />areas would have to be done and this could have an impact where <br />additional area wasn't available and credit was given to units. <br />Council then might be asked to look at some area variance. <br />Comments from residents were added that this is a relatively <br />short street, conforms to City standards and the City <br />maintenance workers go right by on a regular basis. The costs to <br />the City would be minimal. <br />Hurr noted that the Comprehensive Plan talks about the <br />exception being a PUD and this is probably the only PUD Orono has <br />with a private road so that criteria could be used in future <br />requests and may not have to grant to other private roads that <br />may not be PUD's. <br />It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by Peterson, <br />to conceptually approve the request for a public street in <br />Lafayette Ridge and to address the concerns expressed before <br />further Council action. Motion, Ayes~4, Nays-0. Motion passed. <br />LMCD COMPREHENSIVE PLAN/SHORELAND REGULATIONS <br />JoEllen Hurr explained that she tried to have this tabled. <br />Nettles asked how the environmental impact statement get <br />incorporated in. <br />Hurr stated, "There wasn't any discussion. It was <br />incorporated in as per our discussion and the recommendation to <br />Dave Arndorfer and it wasn't discussed. No one objected to <br />that." <br />Nettles asked if Hurr had the feeling there would be any <br />more commitment on behalf of Hennepin County to fund the <br />enforcement.
