MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,June 15,2015 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> about that now, but that he has a concern about another 300 to 500 trucks. Schmidt stated the other <br /> neighbors have more to lose than he does about potential flooding. Schmidt commented he is anxious to <br /> get this project behind them. <br /> Chair Leskinen closed the public hearing at 7:59 p.m. <br /> Leskinen asked if Staff has a significant concern about flooding on the neighboring property. Leskinen <br /> asked if any flooding occurred on the neighboring property that Staff is aware of. <br /> Curtis stated the City Engineer has reviewed the submitted plans and the changes to the property in light <br /> of the drain tile being restored. Curtis stated the failed drain tile likely caused some of the flooding and <br /> brought about the concerns. Curtis stated as long as proper maintenance of the overflow is done, it is her <br /> belief the City Engineer is satisfied with the plan. <br /> Schoenzeit asked if the City is satisfied that any significant road damage will be the responsibility of the <br /> applicant. <br /> Curtis noted the applicant did repair a section of the road last year and that the City completed a <br /> secondary repair,which will be billed to the property owner. Curtis noted this section of Watertown <br /> Road will be reconstructed and that she is not aware of what the evaluation will be at that point, but the <br /> other haul routes will be inspected. <br /> Schoenzeit stated in general in other situations the City has not held property owners responsible but that <br /> he would encourage the City to do whatever they can do to ensure the property owner is held responsible <br /> for any damage that might occur. <br /> Landgraver stated given the amount of activity on Watertown Road, it would be difficult to monitor <br /> Watertown Road. Landgraver commented there are dump trucks going down Watertown Road every 10 <br /> to 15 minutes as part of the construction, but that he would encourage inspection of the road and that Staff <br /> should take steps to make sure the routes are minimized. <br /> McGrann asked if there is a way to limit the time table of the project. <br /> Curtis stated due to the amount of material to be brought to the site, that would basically be the limit. <br /> Staff has suggested hauling timelines and recommended a limit be placed on the grading work on site. <br /> Staff anticipates having a preconstruction meeting with the applicant and their contractor so everyone is <br /> on the same page, but that she does not know what the right solution is for the length of the project. <br /> McGrann commented the neighborhood would likely want to see a concerted effort rather than have it <br /> drawn out. <br /> Thiesse stated it appears the applicant would like the same thing, and in his view 3,000 cubic yards could <br /> be brought into the site within two weeks. <br /> Leskinen asked if Commissioner Thiesse's primary concern is the amount of fill. <br /> Thiesse stated his major concern is getting the trucks off the roads within a reasonable amount of time. <br /> Page 13 of 53 <br />
