REPORT OF PLANIVING COMMISSION REPRESENTATIVES ATTENDING CITY <br /> COUNCIL MEETINGS ON NOVEMBER 22,DECEMBER 13, 2010,AND JANUARY 10,2011 <br /> Kang stated she attended the December 13`�'City Council meeting and that there was a fairly lengthy <br /> discussion regarding the application by Xcel. A number of residents voiced concern over the application. <br /> The City Council determined that it would be best if the Public Utilities Commission would have <br /> oversight of the project since Orono does not have any experience in this type of project. The neighbors <br /> . would have an opportunity at the PUC level to provide comments. <br /> Kang noted the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church application was also approved. <br /> Curtis noted Good Shepherd Church agreed to provide a six-foot privacy fence at the request of the <br /> neighbors. The Klinglehutz application was given conditional use permit and the Dennis Bariy <br /> application for the property located in Navarre was withdrawn to avoid it being denied by the City <br /> Council. <br /> PAGE 2 <br />
