MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday, August 19, 2002 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#02-2782 ORONO PROFESSIONAL PROPERTIES, Continued) <br /> Smith indicated that, it sounded to her, as if the Commission would prefer to defer the trail issue <br /> until they have a better idea of what's going on with Highway 12 and the adjoining property to <br /> the east. <br /> Hawn concurred stating that an escrow would be a good alternative for the applicant. <br /> Gaffron indicated that the existing Resolution No. 4828, section 11, does contain the language <br /> allowing construction of the trail to be deferred until development of the property to the east <br /> occurs subject to the developer posting suitable financial security in the interim for such <br /> construction. <br /> Mabusth asked if the trail should be contingent based solely on the development to the east or if <br /> it should include the final plans for Highway 12 as well. <br /> Hawn inquired what the property to the east was guided for. <br /> Gaffron noted that the immediate property to the east was guided for professional office, while <br /> Dahlstrom would develop the next parcel over with a trail connection to Willow. <br /> Smith asked if the trail issue should be deferred to City Council. <br /> Gaffron suggested that the Commission leave it to City Council to consider when the trail <br /> development should occur and provide them the flexibility to decide. <br /> Dr. Berg questioned where the dumpster should be located within the property. He felt the <br /> dumpster should be located at the northwest corner as opposed to the southeast corner due to <br /> handicapped stalls located in that portion of the lot. <br /> Gaffron stated that either location was acceptable as long as they were totally screened. <br /> Mabusth pointed out that the applicants would lose parking stalls in the northwest quadrant as <br /> well. <br /> Dr. Berg noted that, originally, they had proposed placing the dumpster in a central location <br /> between the two sites for access by either development,but were told they could not propose that <br /> without a development plan for the second parcel. <br /> PAGE 7 of 28 <br />
