MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, January 27, 2003 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />( #02 -2854 KEVIN MANLEY, Continued) <br />Murphy questioned what staff considered a `highly qualified contractor' to be and how to <br />ensure the applicant understands the definition. He pointed out that the City performs <br />qualified inspections on an ongoing basis already, and questioned how further monitoring <br />could be enforced. <br />Suarez stated that he was well aware of what it would take to get the job done correctly and <br />was familiar with experienced qualified contractors. He assured the Council that they <br />would find the right person with the right background for the job. <br />Mayor Peterson asked if Mr. Manley had anything to add. <br />Manley stated that he wished only to get the job done and questioned whether placement of <br />additional trees would necessitate them being planted in front of the lower windows. <br />Gaffron stated that property owners are allowed to do selective cutting as to not obscure <br />their views of the water and suggested he plant the trees outside the continued lines of the <br />house. While the applicant would end up with a natural and well- maintained yard, Gaffron <br />could not commit to how many trees it would require to get there. <br />White moved, Nygard seconded, to approve an after - the -fact variance and • <br />conditional use permit per the Planning Commission recommendation, and to direct <br />the applicant to work with staff to determine the number of additional tree plantings <br />falling outside the continued lines of the house that are necessary. VOTE: Ayes 5, <br />Nays 0. <br />Gaffron indicated that the final resolution would be on the next City Council agenda. <br />*8. #02 -2855 KEVIN GARNETT, 450/480 ORONO ORCHARD ROAD <br />SOUTH - RENEWAL VARIANCE AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - <br />RESOLUTION NO. 4918 <br />Murphy moved, Mayor Peterson seconded, to approve and adopt RESOLUTION <br />NO. 4918, a Resolution granting a renewed variance and conditional use permit to <br />permit construction of a new "guest house" on the property located at 450 -480 Orono <br />Orchard Road South.
