MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 12, 1988 ZONING PILE #990-FBRRBLL CONTINUED Mr. Ferrell is now requesting that this matter be reopened once more and has a revised plan for consideration. Applicant is seeking a variance on one of the two vacant lots. Bernhardson stated that there are some alternatives for this matter. One would be to combine the two westerly lots, which would create a parcel of approximately two acres, leaving the easterly portion with a little over one acre. Another option would be to do a lot line rearrangement so that the totaj. three-acre parcel would be split exactly in half. The concern of approving Mr. Ferrell's request to develop only one of the lots is that both lots are substandard and it would be difficult to approve building on one lot and deny the other similar lot. In light of applicant's revision to the original application, ..taff is recommending that this matter be referred back to the i-lanning Commission. It was moved by Mayor GrabeJc, seconded by CounciImember Nettles, to refer #990, Ward Ferrell, back to the Planning Commission for review. CounciImember Goetten stated that she would hope this was the last time this matter was brought before the Council. She felt that the City Council had been very accommodating in trying to resolve this matter, but Mr. Ferrell had commented to the contrary. She suggested that should there be any additional costs involved with the review of this new proposal, Mr. Ferrell should be responsible.
