MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, March 13, 2006 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />(7. #06 -3173 CITY OF ORONO — ORDINANCE AMENDMENT: INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT <br />ZONING STANDARDS, Continued) <br />The Ryan Companies representative noted they have attended three council meetings, two planning <br />commission meetings, and that this item has been tabled each time. The representative indicated they <br />would like to see some resolution to this item. <br />Sansevere suggested taking item No. 8 on the agenda first and then return to this item. <br />McMillan inquired whether it would be helpful to have a list of materials and addresses. <br />Shooney stated he would be happy to provide a list of materials and addresses of projects that he would <br />like the Council to visit. <br />The Ryan Companies representative stated the material issue is the one final unresolved piece and that <br />they would like to have it resolved. <br />White suggested tabling this item and requested that Shooney provide a list of materials and addresses. <br />Greg White submitted his written comments to the Council. <br />Murphy stated the parties somehow need to reach an agreement on this subject and that it was his <br />understanding this issue was resolved at the last work session. <br />Sansevere stated he is open to considering changing that part of the ordinance but that he does not want to <br />decide on it tonight. <br />The Ryan Companies representative indicated that if the code is written restricting the materials, it would <br />be that way for future councils and any building that is up for sale or being remodeled. The representative <br />indicated the uncertainty of whether a conditional use permit may be obtained makes it difficult for a <br />person to purchase, develop, or redevelop property in this district. <br />Murphy stated the reason the City hired a consultant was to get an independent view and that the Council <br />understands their position raised tonight. <br />Gaffron stated the conditional use permit was included as an option to allow the developers to have a mix <br />of materials. <br />Greg White stated that was not an outcome of the work session. White indicated at the conclusion of the <br />work session it was left that Ryan was going to propose some language that was to be reviewed by Staff. <br />Shooney indicated he did provide that language. <br />Brokl noted that language was incorporated. <br />Shooney stated in his view it is reasonable to take a different view and require different percentages. <br />Murphy suggested this item be discussed at the next work session. <br />PAGE 24 of 27 <br />• <br />0 <br />
