ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MONDAY, MAY 8, 2000 <br />• *15. Septic Code Update — Ordinance No. 199, 2nd Series <br />Kelley moved, and Flint seconded, to adopt Ordinance No. 199, 2 "d Series, <br />approving the modifications to the Orono Septic Code as proposed. <br />Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />16. Fleming Trail Addition — Revised Site Plan and Amended Covenants <br />Moorse stated that staff have made three changes to the covenants: 1. to enable a 30 foot <br />front yard setback, 2. to allow vehicular and pedestrian access onto Orono Oaks Drive, 3. <br />to insure that the park, open space, and ponding areas are all permanently dedicated. <br />Kelley asked how the Council could move on this without having an easement on Orono <br />Oaks Drive because it is a private road. Mayor Jabbour stated they should pass a plan <br />and then approach the homeowners and ask for their support. Kelley stated he can't <br />support the movement without the homeowner's input. <br />Kelley asked if the City has talked to any of the homeowners, and were they notified that <br />it was going to be voted on. Mayor Jabbour stated they had talked to Jim Murphy, but <br />did not notify him of the meeting. Kelley stated they do not have anything in writing <br />from the homeowners stating they will let the City use the road, and don't know if the <br />homeowners will fight the City on the issue. <br />• Mayor Jabbour asked if the City has an easement on the road. Gaffron answered he did <br />not know with certainty at this time; there was language in the Orono Oaks Covenants <br />that potentially gives the Homeowners' Association approval over City use of the <br />easement. Mayor Jabbour stated that if the City can't take the road over, they shouldn't <br />fight the homeowners over it. <br />• <br />Mayor Jabbour stated they could give the City both options and then get the <br />homeowners' input. Peterson stated the Council should make no decision, and talk to the <br />homeowners. <br />Flint suggested approving both plans A and B, then work it out with the homeowners. <br />Everyone favors plan A, but nobody is willing to condemn the road. <br />Flint moved, and Sansevere seconded, to approve plan A & B with the change of the <br />covenants. <br />Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 1 (Kelley). <br />17.
