4 <br /> MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Monday,May 21,2001 <br /> (#01-2676 BAYWIND CHRISTIAN CHURCH,CONTINUED) <br /> Kluth stated he has not done enough research to determine whether churches would be appropriate in <br /> this district. Kluth stated he would like to table this application in order to give the members of the <br /> Planning Commission and City Staff time to compare the"R"District with the B-4 District to insure <br /> that they are compatible. <br /> Greenley suggested that if it is approved tonight,they could simply make it subject to the same <br /> requirements as the"R"District. <br /> Stoddard inquired whether the church has a specific time frame they would like to follow. <br /> Heckel stated the church would not be a hinderance or an obstacle to the neighborhood. Heckel stated <br /> they are currently located at the Excelsior Elementary School and they are losing families because that <br /> is not their target area. Heckel stated they would like to relocate back to this area as soon as they can <br /> since a large number of their parishioners come from this area. <br /> (Janice Berg leaves at 9:52 p.m.) <br /> Smith stated due to one of the commissioners leaving,there no longer is a quorum present on the <br /> Planning Commission,which means this application must be tabled to the June meeting. <br /> It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to table this application. <br /> Weinberger suggested the Applicants meet with City Staff to discuss some of these issues prior to the <br /> City Council meeting. <br /> Gaffron suggested this application be discussed at the 29th City Council meeting to see whether the <br /> Council would be willing to hear this application at their June meeting without a formal <br /> recommendation from the Planning Commission. <br /> Smith noted a City Council member has been in attendance at tonight's meeting, and it will be clearly <br /> communicated to the Council why there is not a formal recommendation on this application. <br /> PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS <br /> (#11) REPORT OF PLANNING COMMISSION REPRESENTATIVES ATTENDING <br /> COUNCIL MEETINGS APRIL 23,2001 AND MAY 14,2001 <br /> May 29—Stoddard <br /> June 11 - Kluth <br /> (#12) OTHER ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION <br /> None <br /> PAGE 25 <br />
