VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br /> <br />9. REQUEST TO PAVE ROAD – FRENCH LAKE PRESERVE <br /> <br />Robert Melamed, Applicant, was present. <br /> <br />Gaffron stated the City is fee owner of Outlot A, French Lake of Orono, a major portion of which has <br />been designated as French Creek Preserve. The road accessing the Preserve from Old Crystal Bay Road <br />serves four existing homes plus the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services sewer lift station and <br />contains a small parking area for the Preserve. <br /> <br />Because French Creek Preserve is a nature area, Staff is requesting direction on how to proceed. If the <br />Council agrees to the paving, Staff and the City Engineer will work with Melamed on the appropriate <br />pavement specifications. It will be paved only at the current gravel width of approximately 16 feet. <br /> <br />Murphy asked if there are any issues with any of the neighbors regarding the paving. <br /> <br />Melamed indicated the neighbors come in off of the asphalt strip and not on the gravel portion. The <br />neighbors have been informed of the meeting tonight and have indicated in the past that they are <br />supportive of the project. The same blacktop company that did the first section will be doing this work <br />and he will be under the supervision of the City Engineer. <br /> <br />Murphy moved, McMillan seconded, to grant approval to Robert Melamed to pave a portion of the <br />City road serving French Creek Preserve as described in the August 5, 2010 staff report. VOTE: <br />Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br /> <br />*10.
