Upon review of that application it was detennined that additional inforniation was needed in order for the City Engineer to complete a thorough review and subsequently, a letter dated September 2, 2005 �vas mailed as notiftcation of that need for fiu�ther infoi-mation, Planning Department staff and the City's engineering consultants theti met on-site with you on or around September 26, 2005 to discuss to need for the additional infornzation and it rvas detennined at that tinle that you �vould � consult a soil engineer and then re-subinit the necessary plans. As the October and November Planning Commission meetings llave since passed, and the City has extinguished its aUility to extend the 60-day review period beyond the initial 60 days and the first 60-day extension, you were required to extend the City's review period. The City received that extension request tlu•ou;h email on November 17, 2005 in antici�ltion of the request bein; heard by the Planning Commission at their Jaa-►uary, 2006 meeting. Included within that written e,ctension was the request to add a variance to the application to pennit a covered entry. As of today's date the City has not received the necessaiy materials in order to complete a City Engineer review �vith re�ard to the retaining wall replacetnent project (adequate materials have been submitted for the covered enhy variance). As the City Engineer will need at least 2 weeks to review materials, a deadline of December 30, 200� has been established for submittal of the retaining wall replacement plans. Should the Gity not receive tl�e necessary materials by that date you must forinally withdra�v your conditional use permit portion of the ap�lication, or the City will deny it at the January 17, 2006 Planning Conlmission meeting (yotir variance request for the covered enh•y could remain on the agenda), Should you have any questions I can be reached at 952-249-4623. Thank you. Sincecely, City of Orono '✓1l��1 s��. �/�G'i l�/�.�'i�� /�`" Janice Gundlach Citv Piatmer cc. Tom K�llo��_. Citv Ln��inee�• ��g:�n:�;r° I?_ �. : >��i•ii • _�';� .;�.., _.''? ..._�, .
