MINUTES OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING Monday, June 12, 2006 7:00 o'clock p.m. (3. #05 -3131 STEVE BOHL OF BORLAND DEVELOPMENT, INC., 190 WILLOW DRIVE NORTHAND 177 GLENDALE DRIVE, Continued) Gaffron stated the applicant is requesting final plat approval of eight new building sites and RPUD rezoning. The applicant has received MCWD approval and has recently submitted final plans, including the AES Ecological Restoration & Management Program. The MCWD review process has resulted in a number of buffer replacement areas that coincide with locations the City expects to have vegetative screening established. Gaffron stated the proposed name for the subdivision is Glendale Cove and that the Fire Department is recommending changing a couple of the proposed streets to avoid name duplication within the city. Gaffron noted the applicant has provided Staff with a grading and drainage plan, and pointed out that there would be a revision to the house located near the wetland to comply with the wetland buffer. Gaffron stated the City of Long Lake would be providing city water and that access to city sewer would be off Hackberry. Gaffron reviewed the landscaping plan provided by the applicant, noting that the vegetation near the street would be almost completely removed. Gaffron noted this application would be back before the Council for final plat approval in a couple of weeks after Staff has had an opportunity to thoroughly review the plans. Murphy inquired whether any of the existing neighbors have commented on the proposed development. Bohl stated he has not received many comments from the neighbors but that he did run into one of the neighbors who requested that some buffering remain. Murphy recommended the applicant communicate with the neighbors prior to the vegetation being removed. Bohl indicated he would be speaking with the neighbors. Kellogg stated he would be meeting with the applicant later this week to discuss some minor revisions that are necessary. Gaffron suggested this application be tabled. White noted he did review the AES document and commended the applicant on his willingness to monitor this development for a couple of years to ensure the proper vegetation takes hold. This item was tabled by the City Council. *4. #06 -3192 WILLIAM AND MARY TITLER, 4209 NORTH SHORE DRIVE — VARIANCE — RESOLUTION NO. 5474 Murphy moved, Sansevere seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 5474, a Resolution Granting Lot Width and Lot Area Variances for the property located at 4209 North Shore Drive.
