MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,August 20,2012 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Schoenzeit commented the enforcement is on the City's nickel and asked if the City can recoup those <br /> prosecution fees. <br /> Curtis indicated the City is unable to collect that type of fee. The City prosecutes code violations <br /> criminally and the City is unable to collect those costs. The covenants filed on the chain of title gives the <br /> City leverage for enforcement in the future. <br /> Landgraver asked if the Planning Commission grants the conditional use permit,whether that would be <br /> filed with the property. <br /> Curtis indicated it would be. <br /> Landgraver asked if the conditions of approval would be disclosed to the new property owner. <br /> Curtis stated the covenants and any approval resolution would follow the chain of title. The City would <br /> need to participate in removal of the conditional use permit to have it o�cially removed from the chain of <br /> title. <br /> Chris Janssen,Mills Construction, stated Staff has conveyed their concerns and adjustments have been <br /> made to the plans to accommodate those concerns. Janssen requested the Planning Commission approve <br /> the application tonight. <br /> Landgraver asked if the applicant has any objections to the recommendations of Staff. <br /> Janssen stated they had a concern with closing off the access to the garage in case of an emergency. The <br /> area in the lower level is a weather shelter. If there is need to access the severe weather shelter,the only <br /> way to access it would be to go around the house. By closing off the door,that might potentially create a <br /> safety issue. Janssen stated their main goal is to be in compliance. <br /> Janssen pointed out the storm room on the overhead. <br /> Chair Schoenzeit opened the public hearing at 6:43 p.m. <br /> There were no public comments regarding this application. <br /> Chair Schoenzeit closed the public hearing at 6:43 p.m. <br /> Landgraver noted his questions were more directed at what could happen in the event the property is sold. <br /> Schoenzeit stated this situation is similar to an office rental type of situation and that the Planning <br /> Commission has to ensure that all the appropriate City regulations are complied with. <br /> Curtis noted the building plans would be reviewed at the time of issuance of the building permit. <br /> Levang moved,Schwingler seconded,to recommend approval of Application#12-3569,Chris <br /> Janssen of Mills Construction,LLC,on behalf of Jason Wilsey,990 North Shore Drive West, <br /> granting of a conditional use permit,subject to the 15 conditions set forth in Staff s report.
