• • • Y CITY of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 3022 A) The recent improvement project for the City of Orono involving -an expanded water system within the Highway 12 area is designed to keep the supply (well) and 'storage (tower) separated. This condition provides the greatest efficiency in providing fire flow' to any area within the distribution system. The preferred location for the tower would be near Old Crystal Bay Road either on the north or south side of Highway 12. The property is located on the north side of Highway 12 adjacent to Old Crystal Bay Road. B) As property is owned by City, the City need not purchase additional lands in the preferred placement area thereby reducing overall costs of water tower installation. C) The water tower will be located within a row of mature trees providing a natural screening/buffer- ing of 50 to 60 feet of the base of the tower. D) The City has. received no negative comments from the adjacent property owners most impacted by the installation of the tower. 4. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow the installation of an elevated water tank will not be be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose a. fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties, nor will'its use depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by staff and comments of the applicant and the affect of the proposed use on the health, safety, and welfare of the community.
