� : <br /> � ;1IiJUTES OF A REGULAR r�EETING HELD "-1AY 29, 1973 �age 3 <br /> • Tlie Council then stated reasons w;zy the IDS <br /> � proposal cvas voted down. <br /> � T;ie height variance was denied because it is <br /> contrary to tne ordinance. An amenclment of <br /> � tlie ordinance would �e required. There is <br /> Village wicle opposition to ]iigh buildin� <br /> � structures that would be more than the current <br /> allowable heigiit. The proposed tiao t�wers <br /> • are not compatible with this community. <br /> � Tlie conditional use for the multiple dwellings <br /> a requested was denied for several reasons. <br /> First, the number of units IDS waiited is in <br /> � excess of what our planner recommendecl. <br /> Secondly, the area is now served by two tcvo- <br /> • iane roads of limited capacity whicii affects <br /> tne areas ability to have a density as liigh <br /> � as requested without ]iaving to upgrade the <br /> � existing road networlc. Any application �a�zich <br /> �vould allow these limits to be exceeded is a <br /> , da;lger to the Villa�e. Studies indicate that <br /> tiie granting of the IDS proposal or allowing <br /> � tiie area to develop on a piece by piece basis <br /> �aould cause the existing liigliway capacity <br /> • to be exceeded. P.1any feel there is too much <br /> commercially zoned property in tlie Navarre <br /> � area now. One of che objectives of the Orono <br /> � Comprehensive Plan, which is being t,rorked on <br /> iio�v, is to try and provide an improvement of <br /> � the distribuzion of tlie commercial property <br /> -t;iat now exists in the Navarre area. <br /> • <br /> 'Tiie rezoning request was denied for tlie size <br /> � and development scope of the project is in <br /> ?xcess of what the area can support at this <br /> a .:ime and due to all of tlze previous comments <br /> * that have been macie above. It is also <br /> recognized that if tiie rezonin� was allowed, <br /> � the Village �aould lose control of what <br /> development can go into tlie rezoned area. <br /> � The Villa�e wislies to maintain that control <br /> • T;ie street vacation request itself would not <br /> . �e tlie sole preventor of t?ie project; however, <br /> due to all of the above comments , it is now a <br /> � mute issue. <br /> � :•Iayor Oberiiauser then stated t;iat being as the <br /> l�roposal of IDS �,ras defeated, the Council may <br /> � ���isii to give IDS some conce tual guidelines <br /> :�f a developmeiit that migit e acceptable. <br /> • •�y doing tliis , it �vould give IDS some guidelines <br /> �to work with and IDS could accept or reject <br /> t:ie Council ' s development concept of t}ie area <br /> � in question. <br /> � <br /> • <br />
