minutes op the ORONO council meeting of DECEMBER 11, 1989 <br />k <br />CounciImember Goetten asked whether the City should be <br />addressing the issue of private/public roads as a whole, rather <br />than addressing them individually. <br />Bernhardson said that access, maintenance and development of <br />the road are the iss -s. The developer will be responsible for <br />the development of the r-a3 either way. The question in <br />to maintenance is whether or not the property owners of the three <br />lots, short of the dedication of a public roao, have <br />go over that portion of the privately maintained Aear Lane Nor.h. <br />Citv Attorney Barrett advised that the Council need onl> <br />draft an Ordinance amer.dment stating that in such circumstances <br />access must be allowed to any adjacent property via under . m ^ <br />public access easements taken over private roao outlets. <br />Mr. Bill Wear asked where the cul-de-sac would be located. <br />Mabusth depicted the approximate location on the overhead <br />sketch. <br />Mr. Wear asked if the City was aware of the trees located in <br />that area that would need to rem.oved? <br />Mabusth replied that the trees will be ^considered wnen <br />determining the actual location of the cul-de-sac. <br />Mr. Wear had no other comments. <br />Mabusth asked for clarification from the Ci;.y ?>ttorney as to <br />how much of the road will be dedicated as a public road. <br />Barrett replied that at a minimum the northern portion wil? <br />be dedicated because the easement that is available to the <br />developer to the north is the one that the City owns. <br />Mabusth asked if the portion of Wear Lane North now existing <br />will remain a private road. <br />Barrett suggested .that the Council pass an <br />says in these circumstances these private roads must <br />h^Lwners and their invitees who need to cross over the private <br />road in order to get to their residences. <br />Mr. Bob Lorenzen, 2050 Wear Circle, said that he currently <br />has a l/6th interest over Outlot A, which includes both Wear <br />Circle and Wear Lane North. He asked how this public/private <br />issue will affect the maintenance costs he now pays.
