MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday, May 19, 2003 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#5 #03-2889 RAVIA REAL ESTATE, LLC, Continued) <br /> Jackie Ricks, 2108 Sugarwoods Drive, stated that she had phoned Gaffron about receiving <br /> the brochure. She indicated that she, too,believed the use was too intense for just 2 acres. <br /> Ms. Ricks stated that she would like to see the number of rentals reduced even further, <br /> perhaps by two more. As the dumpster was nearest her property, she asked about its <br /> placement and time trash pickup would occur. <br /> Karlson indicated that they were open to a better location, however, he could not guarantee <br /> pick up at a certain time. <br /> Rahn suggested limitations be put on the hauler in terms of pick up times, and believed the <br /> noise ordinances, restricting noise prior to 7AM and after 8PM, would suffice. <br /> Gaffron felt they could address this concern by attempting to get a daytime hauler. <br /> Karlson ensured the neighbor that the dumpster location would be completely enclosed and <br /> shielded. <br /> Ms. Mileusnic stated that she was more skeptical about the elevations, since the <br /> construction of the apartment buildings, as they were much more obtrusive than the <br /> residents were first led to believe. <br /> Karlson stated that it was their intent to be good neighbors and believed the apartment <br /> buildings next door would tower over their buildings. <br /> Gaffron reminded the residents that the development would be built on higher elevations to <br /> begin with and might appear higher as a result. He suggested the applicant put together a <br /> side by side elevation comparison between their proposal and the neighboring apartments. <br /> Revering asked what the next step would be. <br /> Gaffron indicated that, if approval was recommended this evening, Ravia would then seek <br /> concept plan approval from the City Council which defines all that is necessary in the final <br /> plans. <br /> Bremer moved, Hawn seconded, to recommend approval of Application #03-2889, <br /> Ravia Real Estate, LLC,2060 Wayzata Boulevard, PUD—General Concept Plan <br /> Review/Preliminary Plat Review, subject to staff recommendations.
