• <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR MAY 11, 1998 <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT <br />Jabbour indicated he already reported on the meeting with Sohns, owner of property adjacent to the <br />Brook Park development. Jabbour mentioned a meeting with Saga Hill Church to explain the DNR <br />grant to access the church property to a park, with easement available for ambulance or utilities. He <br />went on to say he is going to meet with them May 21 st and show them Orono. The City does not <br />want to develop that road to accelerate development. Flint agreed it was a positive meeting and <br />helped to understand the church's position. <br />Jabbour suggested, after the last meeting with Long Lake, that a brainstorming session be scheduled <br />with some local residents to explain how they do development in their own businesses. <br />Jabbour asked City Administrator to relay a message to the Long Lake Mayor and City <br />Administrator about the two City Councils meeting with several developers regarding what they <br />view as feasible along Highway 12. Jabbour and Moorse will discuss this further later. <br />Goetten questioned Gappa about Fox Street between Brown Road, and Orono Orchard Road where <br />• there is sand in big potholes. Gappa replied that the blade patching should be complete by the end <br />of the week. She also requested updates on County Roads 15 and 6 be provided to the Council. <br />Gappa provided a brief update regarding the County Road 15 project and timeline. Goetten also <br />questioned if Gappa answered Mrs. Murphy's questions on flat sewer rates, which he did. There is <br />currently no senior citizen's rate. <br />Flint received information indicating Long Lake's engineering consultant is recommending against <br />an access on new Highway 12 at Willow Drive. He asked if the Council needed to take any specific <br />action because Orono has adopted "no access on Willow" policy. Flint asked this item be put on the <br />agenda for the next Council meeting. <br />Kelley asked if Jabbour and Ed Callahan are in favor of moving the Meyer Brother's Dairy and <br />getting the ramp for emergency vehicles. Goetten said it appeared the full signal light would remain <br />at that intersection. Jabbour suggested talking to Ed Callahan and taking it to the next step. <br />• <br />
