• <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR OCTOBER 28, 1996 <br />(# 5. #2128 Orono Hockey Boosters, Inc. - Continued) <br />Hurr asked for the landscaping plan. Engebretson stated the landscaping plan has been <br />revised to address the concerns of the Timms. They are working very hard on the <br />landscaping plan, and will keep working that plan until the building looks as good as it <br />can on that site. We have $40,000 in the budget for landscaping. They have had a lot <br />of discussions with the neighbors to address their concerns. <br />Dr. Mitch stated the school district has reviewed the Hockey Association plans and is in <br />full approval. <br />Mr. and Mrs. Timm, 2885 County Road 6, stated they are unhappy about the location <br />of the facility stating this has a major impact on their property. <br />Karen Zeeb stated she lived next to the Timms and felt left out of the project. She had <br />a petition from all persons on Jamestown Road and at the Watershed District meeting <br />they would not even listen to the neighbors' concerns. <br />Callahan requested Engebretson to explain the thought process of the building and site <br />design. Engebretson stated the building is on the north and parking on the south because <br />the school will use the parking. Preference was to shield the building from County Road <br />6. Kelley noted with parking on the south there will not be any parking on County Road <br />6. Engebretson noted the entrance door is on the south and the wetlands are protected <br />with this layout. He also noted the school is paying for the parking area. <br />The neighbors indicated they also had concerns regarding traffic. Mabusth stated the <br />Timms and the Hockey Association were to work on an agreement regarding plantings. <br />Engebretson stated they have not completed this at this point. Mabusth listed conditions <br />to be voted on for the CUP. Parking lot and building lighting were addressed by the <br />Architect. <br />Council stated that the applicant and Timms should continue their talks and if not <br />completed the Timms should contact the City. The applicant has tried to lessen the <br />impact of this facility. <br />Kelley moved, Goetten seconded to adopt Resolution #3784 approving Conditional Use <br />Permit and Variances for Orono Hockey Boosters, Inc., 1025 Old Crystal Bay Road <br />North. Vote: Ayes 5, nays 0. <br />Callahan called a recess at 9:25 p.m. Council will reconvene at 9:40 p.m. <br />7 <br />
