MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 23, 1998 (#4 - #2290 Elaine and Steve Silus - Continued) • Kelley indicated he would be concerned with water flowage off the slope to the south. Vang indicated that a swale would be required. Kelley indicated the water flow would run quickly through the swale onto the property. Kelley suggested to Spilseth that it may not be to her best interest to have a sloping driveway neighboring her property as it may not catch all the water. He suggested that plantings could be used to screen the retaining wall if the neighbor does not like the look of it. Kelley said the neighbor and applicant need to work through the problem. Spilseth said the properties have always been at the same elevation. She does not feel she should have been placed in this position. Jabbour acknowledged her concern but said the City would like her input. Problems with delaying any action were noted if the application was denied. Jabbour asked Silus for permission to table the application in order to allow the applicant and neighbors to meet to resolve the issues. Silus gave his consent. Jabbour said Staff would be willing to review the options with the Spilseths. Barrett indicated that since Silus has given his oral agreement to tabling the application, the City can prepare a letter for Silus' signature indicating this agreement. Goetten moved, Peterson seconded, to table Application 2290. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0.
