MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Wednesday, January 17, 2001 <br /> (#2550 Charles Van Eeckhout, Continued) <br /> Van Eeckhout stated he would like to get some guidance from the Planning Commission on his <br /> plan and that he is simply following the required procedure. <br /> Kluth stated the Planning Commission has given the Applicant guidance on having smaller <br /> lot sizes and the need to resolve the access issue. Kluth stated until the access issue is resolved, <br /> the Planning Commission is really unable to give a recommendation one way or another on the <br /> proposal. <br /> Van Eeckhout stated he does have legal access off of Apple Glen Road but he is attempting to <br /> provide access off of Brown Road due to the concerns expressed by the residents of Long Lake. <br /> Berg stated once access has been resolved, she would be willing to review the plan, but at this <br /> point in time, she cannot approve any plan without knowing how the development will be <br /> accessed. <br /> Bellows commented in her view this cannot be considered a proper public hearing since the <br /> Planning Commission was not supplied with the proper documentation on the plan being discussed <br /> by the Applicant tonight. <br /> Van Eeckhout reiterated he is merely looking for some guidance from the Planning Commission at <br /> this point. <br /> Bellows stated the Planning Commission would like the Applicant to get the access issue resolved <br /> prior to bringing this application before the Planning Commission or City Council. <br /> The Planning Commission took no action on this application. <br /> SCHEDULED PUBLIC HEARINGS, CONTINUED <br /> 8:00 p.m. <br /> (#8) #2640/2641 ORONO AMBER,LLC,2060 WAYZATA BOULEVARD, P.U.D./ <br /> SUBDIVISION/REZONING/COMMERCIAL SITE PLAN REVIEW,8:30 p.m.—9:17 p.m. <br /> Frank Dunbar, Applicant, was present. <br /> The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. <br /> Weinberger stated the Applicant is requesting general concept approval for a two lot plat of a <br /> 6.7 acre property under the PUD ordinance. The Applicant is proposing a rezoning of the two <br /> properties from B-1, Retail Sales Business District, to B-6/PUD and RPUD/PUD for multi-family <br /> residential use of the proposed east parcel. The intended use of the properties are a three-story <br /> 62 unit senior housing project and a 23,000 square foot office building. <br /> Weinberger stated the proposed residential use of the property would require a Comprehensive <br /> Plan Amendment as the property is not guided for residential use in the 1980 Comprehensive Plan <br /> PAGE 16 <br />
