MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON MAY 12,1997 <br />(Mayor /Council Report - Continued) <br />Kelley noted another concern of the fire department is the size of the trucks versus the <br />narrow driveways of many homes. There is also the need to consider zoning code <br />requirements regarding height and the ability of fire trucks to handle such calls. <br />Goetten suggested considering the possibility of purchasing a used fire truck. <br />Kelley and Moorse will meet to discuss these issues. <br />Flint reported that he and Jabbour attended the Highway 12 Design Meeting. While <br />noting there is room for flexibility, the issues are becoming clearer and more specified. <br />He recommended additional City involvement. <br />Jabbour said a sub- committee should be formed made up of residents, staff, and Council <br />to represent the City at these design meetings. He indicated there is a need for residents' <br />vision regarding property use to limit damage to properties. He suggested a special <br />meeting be held to discuss these issues. <br />A Work Session was scheduled for 6:30 p.m. preceding the Council meeting of May 27 <br />for residents west of Willow Drive. A Work Session was scheduled for 6:30 p.m. <br />preceding the Council meeting of June 9 for residents east of Willow Drive. <br />CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT • <br />( 013) PARTIAL PAYMENT OF SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS - ORDINANCE NO. <br />150, 2ND SERIES <br />Moorse reported that the ordinance would enable residents in the sewer project to <br />partially prepay their special assessment. The Council has adopted ordinances allowing <br />prepayment of assessments in the past but were specific to a particular public <br />improvement project. This ordinance would be more general allowing partial prepayment <br />of assessment for any public improvement project. <br />Kelley moved, Goetten seconded, to adopt Ordinance No. 160, 2nd Series, allowing <br />partial prepayment of assessments. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />(* #14) PARK COMMISSION REAPPOINTMENTS <br />Goetten moved, Peterson seconded, to reappoint Susan Wilson and Sherokee Ilse to <br />three year terms on the Park Commission expiring on December 31, 1999.
