ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> MINUTES FOR MARCH 20, 2000 <br /> • <br /> (#2563 Mike and Ruth Filbrandt, Continued) <br /> develop this property would be to replat the property, which would make it a Class III subdivision <br /> because flexible zoning is required in this instance from the five acre zoning requirement. <br /> Weinberger stated some other issues the Applicant will need to consider is the availability of <br /> acceptable septic sites for both lots, lot width, and adequate access. In order for the Applicant <br /> to accurately determine how much land is available for each lot in the subdivision. <br /> Filbrandt stated there may be some additional land in the rear that could possibly count as <br /> dry land and raise the total dry buildable land to ten acres. <br /> Lindquist commented that perhaps some consideration could be given to rezoning this area to <br /> two acres. Lindquist stated he would prefer seeing two acre zoning in this area versus have one <br /> five acre lot and one four acre lot. <br /> Weinberger stated the wetland delineation will help determine how much dry buildable land is <br /> actually available. Weinberger stated they did not consider rezoning this area to two acres due to <br /> the City's Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Lindquist stated the rezoning issue will need to be reviewed and approved by the City Council. <br /> Berg commented in her view rezoning to two acres is a viable option that should be considered for <br /> this property. Berg stated she is unsure why this area was zoned five acres. <br /> . Hawn suggested if the Applicant is unable to meet the five acre minimum, to give some <br /> consideration to requesting that this area be rezoned to two acres. <br /> PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS <br /> (#9) REPORT OF PLANNING COMMISSION REPRESENTATIVES ATTENDING COUNCIL <br /> MEETINGS ON FEBRUARY 28, 2000 AND MARCH 13, 2000 <br /> Nygard stated the City Council is continuing to pursue the Dakota Rail to Trail project. <br /> Hawn noted the Planning Commission has been requested to meet with the Long Lake Planning <br /> Commission to discuss Wayzata's Development Guidelines and Comprehensive Plan, with a <br /> meeting date scheduled for April 11 at 6:30 p.m. Hawn stated she would like the Orono Planning <br /> Commission to meet in a workshop setting prior to that meeting. Hawn commented one reason for <br /> the joint meeting is to consider the possibility of cooperating on development that may occur along <br /> the Highway 12 corridor. <br /> (#10) OTHER ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION <br /> None <br /> • <br /> Page 14 <br />
