0 <br />MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD AUGUST 24, 1987 <br />#1169 WILLIAM WEAR CONTINUED <br />review of a proposed subdivision on 18.5 acres. Three <br />options (A,B & C) have been submitted. Planning <br />Commission recommended Option C because the roads have <br />been aligned and found no problem with the creations of <br />Outlots B & C for future development as long as <br />appropriate covenants are filed against each outlot. <br />Because of staff concerns regarding creation of <br />unbuildable outlots i.e. maintenance, tax forfeit, <br />future code standards, and precedent; staff recommends <br />that Outlots B & C either be required to be combined <br />with the adjacent lots - Option E (to be divided at a <br />future date if sewer is available and future zoning <br />finds outlots buildable); or to do away with Outlots B & <br />C and the area combined with adjacent residential lots _ <br />Option F. <br />Bill Wear stated his preference for Option C. He is <br />opposed to staff's recommended Options E & F because he <br />believes the Outlots will be buildable in the future and <br />wants to retain these outlots himself. <br />CABLE TV REPORT <br />""After clarification to Council regarding the proposed <br />Options, it was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by <br />Councilmember Goetten, conceptually approving Options E <br />or F (applicant's choice) per staff recommendation. <br />Motion, Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />City Administrator Bernhardson reviewed the Dowden Cable <br />Systems rate restructuring (of which the City has no <br />control over) and channel re- alignment. <br />Staff recommends that the Council stay abreast of the <br />channel realignment issue through its representative and <br />that should Councilmembers receive calls regarding the <br />rate increase that they should have the individuals <br />complaining write letters to the cable system expressing <br />their objections with copies to both the City of Orono <br />and Lake Minnetonka Cable Communications Commission. <br />It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember <br />Goetten, that the Council accept the information <br />regarding the cable system rates and channel <br />realignment.
