MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,May 20,2002 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#02-2782 KARL BERG, Continued) <br /> Hawn observed that the plan fits the B-6 concept nicely. She maintained that the Doctors had made a <br /> good case to her of laying a complete driveway all around the building. <br /> Kluth questioned why the building could not sit more square on the property. <br /> Dr. Berg appreciated the suggestion; however; maintained that after examining many designs it just <br /> seemed like the building worked and looked best at this 45 degree angle. <br /> Hawn stated that her main concern focuses on the drainage issue, which is dependent on what happens to <br /> the east. <br /> Gaffron indicated that the MCWD will want to be involved at some point in order to discuss the <br /> stormwater runoff issues. <br /> Hawn wondered what their construction schedule was. <br /> Dr. Berg noted that is was their hope to move in during February or March of 2003. He believed they <br /> would be faced with a hardship if it took too much longer in order to deal with MCWD etc. <br /> Gaffron stated that in Long Lake,the MCWD has proven reasonable in dealing with similar issues <br /> regarding new development. <br /> Ms. VanDell stated that current plans include the installation of a stormwater pipe which would drain into <br /> the nearby pond. She also added that the current ratios are estimated at 28% greenspace and 18% <br /> building. <br /> Dr. Berg asked the Commission where they stand currently on the proposed application since time is a <br /> concern. <br /> Mabusth asked Gaffron whether any standards had been defined regarding sidewalks for Kelley Parkway. <br /> Gaffron noted that the City has not spelled out what the Parkway is to look like and they are defining that <br /> now with this application. <br /> Hawn believed that Kelley Parkway could potentially be a busy road and suggested 8 foot sidewalks be <br /> laid. <br /> PAGE 13 <br />
