Some areas could be developed into more productive wetlands. <br />Mitigation on the site is preferable to looking in other areas. <br />A meeting with the developer and Planning Commission members was scheduled for 9:00 a.m, <br />Saturday, October 23. The sketch plan will also be presented to Council at the October 25 <br />meeting. <br />( #11) FLAG LOTS - FINALIZE RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL <br />A motion was made by Schroeder, seconded by Berg, to table discussion of this item until <br />Thursday morning at the special Planning Commission meeting.

This was the second meeting and Smith is attending them. A MnDOT representative is <br />available as a technical advisor. Orono is represented by the entire Council. These meetings <br />run parallel to the Policy Committee meetings which are MnDOT meetings. Two meeting dates <br />are set in November and again in January. The meetings are open to the public and held at the <br />Orono Council Chambers. Smith commented that MnDOT stated the reason they are looking <br />at Highway 12 upgrades is because the people from Wilmar want to get into the Cities. <br />Schroeder reminded members further discussion needs to take place before the end of November <br />regarding the B -2 zone and encouraged members to visit all of the marinas. <br />Schroeder stated Mabusth had checked into insurance for Planning Commission members. His <br />question was whether they are insured if they injure a dog, etc., not if one of the members is <br />injured on an inspection. Gaffron will research further. <br />• 25 <br />
