� . , , , . Resolution # 73� Schoo�l Dis.tr.ict No. 2$7 Page 4 • 5. The strengthening of the Wetlands Preservation Ordinance No. 12'5. 6. The imposition of the 6� mill rate levy limitation by the State of Minnesota. 7. The continuing effort with the Hennepin County Highway Department over our established policy to preserve the roads on the T�tinnetonka shoreline as scenic parkways and to be consistent with the ecology of the lake, rather than the County's desire to pave the shoreline of Minnetonka into a massive transpor- tation network. 8. The completion of a new Comprehensive Sewer Plan that establishes the sewer service area of Orono consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan and zoning code. This Plan shows the Orono land adjacent to the Vo-Tech site as rural service unsewered area with no need for municipal sewer service for at least a 25 � year period. 9. The reduction of population projections for Orono by the Metropolitan Council from 35,500 to 12,900 and a saturation population � _� projection by Orono from 23,000 to 12 ,871. � Orono feels strongly that the introduction of the proposed Vo-Tech School by 1980 negates the determination of basic land�J.use planning, including policies for the preservation of Lake Minnetonka that have been established by Orono in the past five years; and to be adverse to the health, saftey and welfare of Orono residents; and WHEREAS, the recognized existence of overbuilt facilities in all of the area school systems today coupled with the realization that the reduction of population projections will add to the under- use of present educational facilities to even a greater extent in the future, makes Orono wonder if there are not other alternatives � to the construction of new facilities for the Vo-Tech West Campus that did not exist at the time the project was justified in the late 1960 's; and WHEREAS, in 1976 Orono granted the Vo-Tech School a one year conditional use permit for the temporary use of land in Orono, just south of the proposed site of the West Campus in Medina, for agriculture purposes. This one year conditional use permit was granted only after determining that this ter.lporary :usage�was .�onsis�ent with the rural service�a`rea.'of Orono.and would not require urban services such as sewer,�,-fire and police, and that the additional � • traffic,yj load to ,support this limited and temporary agriculture usage, would be minimal 'caus.ing no additonal hardship to Orono residents; ;`��_: • NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the proposed construc- tion of the Vo-Tech School West Campus and the requirement for urban services in the year 1980 is inconsistent with Orono's Comprehensive Guide Plan, ;Orono�_s�Comprehensive Sewer Plan, and the Metropolitan Council's Developinent Framework; and •
