MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, September 15, 2014 <br />6:30 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br />  <br />Page 7 of 59  <br />  <br />Landgraver asked what the City Engineer’s comments are regarding the work. <br /> <br />Curtis stated Staff currently has a previous survey and an existing conditions survey, which is mid <br />project. The City Engineer had questions on the existing topography plan and Staff would like to see <br />some tweaks to the plan to make it acceptable. <br /> <br />Landgraver asked if the applicant is in agreement with all of Staff’s recommendations. <br /> <br />Kelly indicated he has not seen the tweaks but that he is sure they can meet those. <br /> <br />Leskinen noted the work is half done and that she is troubled by the fact that the work continued even <br />after a stop work order had been issued. <br /> <br />Kelly stated that work was not something they approved and was one of the reasons he was fired. <br /> <br />Leskinen stated she would be in agreement with including all of the City Engineer’s comments in the <br />motion. <br /> <br />Leskinen noted the applicants will be replacing some of the trees, and asked whether the Planning <br />Commission can make any recommendations regarding the damage to the neighbor’s tree. <br /> <br />Curtis stated it would be a property owner issue, but that if the Planning Commission has additional <br />recommendations for what happens along the lot lines, they can make those recommendations. <br /> <br />Leskinen stated replacing the trees that were taken down should be done. <br /> <br />Kelly stated the trees were not taken down but are dead. Kelly indicated they did not want the wall cut <br />that close in and that the contractor disturbed the trees and they died. <br /> <br />Curtis stated Staff is proposing the number of replacement trees based on the stumps shown in the survey. <br /> <br />Berg asked if Staff’s recommendation is to replant the two trees that are dead. <br />Item #01 - PC Agenda - 10/20/2014 <br />Approval of Planning Commission Minutes 09/15/2014 <br />[Page 7 of 59]
