MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 12, 1996 (Public Comments - Continued) Joan Valek said the County had agreed to split off the 1/2 acre to add to the Valek property, which was needed to alleviate drainage problems. The County, however, needs the City's approval by way of a resolution stating the metes and bounds of the 1/2 acre parcel before the County can split off the 1/2 acre parcel. Joan Valek said O'Connor is awaiting a survey of the property, which she was told needed to be done by the City. Callahan responded that the County was the owner of the land. Moorse interjected that it was Staffs understanding when the Council approved the 1/2 acre parcel to be added to the Valek property that there was a condition that an easement be provided to gain access to the parkland. Valek noted that the 10' alley was an abandoned utility easement and questioned that it was to be turned into an access. Moorse said when the approval was made, it was agreed that the easement would be moved to the side of the property and still be maintained as an easement. During preparation for this to occur, Staff determined that in order to provide a reasonable access, there would be a need to expand the easement from 10' to 20', to which the Valek's disagreed. Joan Valek said the resolution was never contingent on moving the easement on their property. She added that the alley had nothing to do with the resolution. The Valek's asked that the issue be placed on the Council agenda. Callahan responded • that the matter would be taken up at the next Council meeting scheduled for February 26,1996.
