MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON MAY 27,1997 (#6 - #2209 Spring Hill Golf Club - Continued) Crosby said the standard was unrealistic. He said the second sentence will not occur as all of the water will not drain into the treatment pond. Barrett suggested breaking the wording down into cases. Crosby said he was satisfied with the first sentence. He suggested the second sentence be changed to, "design subject to City approval to divert runoff to the extent topography permits ". Hunter said a qualifier was necessary for the plans. Marshal Braman noted that the majority of the runoff would enter the ponds but if any runs off onto the grass, it would be considered in violation. He said the design directs water to areas agreed to by the City Engineer and MCWD. Moorse suggested the place for enforcement is with the design plans themselves regarding final grading. He suggested the wording of "final grading and landscaping plans subject to City approval ". Drainage would then run to where designed. Barrett agreed with this language. Council agreed with change. Item 5C, page 10, referencing membership in Audubon Program, Crosby asked that the last sentence be changed to "obtain membership if accepted ". When asked why this issue was included, Gaffron said he has attempted to include all commitments made by the applicant during the review process. 1 0 Page 11, item 6, change "completely invisible" to "mostly invisible ". Crosby suggested changes to items 7A and 7B. Kelley suggested eliminating these items but Goetten noted that County approval had not yet been obtained. Jabbour recommended eliminating A and B. Gaffron suggested exchanging 7A with the information regarding applicant repairing Spring Hill Road if damaged to pre - construction condition. Staff would make a pre - construction analysis. 7C - "as agreed upon" was added regarding westbound traffic auxiliary lane. Page 12, Du, Crosby suggested referencing the plans previously submitted to the City. Moorse asked that the date of the plans be noted. Gaffron recommended referencing the exhibit. Under Diii, Crosby asked that the item state the fencing shall "generally be of low opaqueness and permit rustic but opaque fence for safety reasons or separation reasons ". The separation refers to where the trail runs near the tee at hole #6. Crosby said the plans are not to fence the course. Jabbour said he would prefer wording prohibiting future fencing of the course. 0 8
