MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,April 15,2002 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#02-2767 Stonegate Farm,Continued) <br /> Hawn stated it has also been suggested by one of the Commissioners that a time schedule be established <br /> for the movement of the fill. Hawn inquired whether the property owner would be amenable to setting <br /> up a time schedule for the movement of the fill. <br /> Seeland stated at this time they are unaware of the timing for the movement of the fill,noting they are <br /> waiting for excessive fill on a project in the area. <br /> Smith inquired whether a schedule could be given to the City once the property owner becomes aware <br /> of it. <br /> Seeland stated that would be acceptable,but indicated there may be a problem if the fill comes from <br /> more than one project. Seeland indicated she would be willing to work with Staff on the schedule. <br /> Mabusth inquired whether the Planning Commission wants to put a deadline on this permit,with the <br /> property owner being required to appear before the Planning Commission again for another permit if the <br /> hauling of the fill goes beyond a certain time period. <br /> Seeland indicated she has discussed this matter with Mike Gaffron and the appropriate landscaping that <br /> would be required. Seeland stated she was told by Gaffron that once the Highway 12 project begins, <br /> that there should be many places where fill can be obtained. <br /> Hawn stated it is in the best interests of the City to limit the time in which the fill is hauled. <br /> Rahn commented it would be more problematic if the fill is hauled in from a number of smaller projects <br /> rather than one big project. Rahn stated one of the issues to address is the cleanup of the road. <br /> Mabusth indicated the hauler would be responsible for the cleanup, and suggested that Staff be notified <br /> when the hauling will take place. <br /> Hawn inquired whether Seeland would be agreeable to contacting Staff whenever hauling would occur. <br /> Seeland stated she would be, and that they would like to keep the number of projects that the fill would <br /> be hauled from to one or two. <br /> Hawn requested the applicant notify the City whenever a new site is determined. <br /> Smith inquired whether there have been other occasions in the City where property owners have hauled <br /> in fill where it has not occurred all at one time. <br /> Gaffron stated that happens quite frequently,noting Staff would prefer to keep the hauling incidents <br /> down to two or three. <br /> Smith inquired who would keep track of who cleans the roads if there is more than one hauler. <br /> Gaffron stated the cleanup issue would occur the day the hauling occurs and usually is not a problem <br /> unless there are a large number of haulers. <br /> PAGE 2 <br />
