MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Monday,May 21,2007 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (Report of Planning Commission Representatives,Continued) <br /> Gaffron stated one of the issues is that the co-op does not want to spend the money to put in a PUD <br /> application if this use is not going to be allowed on that site. Gaffron stated Staff is compiling a list of <br /> questions for the co-op and bank to answer,which would help define some of the wilrnowns at this time <br /> before the City makes a more formal commitment. <br /> Kang stated the main concern of the Council appears to be that the food co-op may not be viable in the <br /> long run and would leave the door open to other retail on that site. <br /> Kroeger commented he is somewhat confused on how that application has gone back and forth and that it <br /> was his understanding the Planning Commission was supposed to look at only land uses for this site at <br /> this sta.ge of the process. <br /> Gaffron stated two of the initial concerns of the City Council were the viability of the food co-op and <br /> � whether there is the support of the community for this type of business. <br /> 10. OTHER ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION <br /> Gaffron noted a work session has been scheduled for June 6�'. Gaffron suggested the Planning <br /> Commission perhaps take a tour of what was approved over the past year to give them a visual of the <br /> finished projects. <br /> 11.
