MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, August 15, 2016 <br />6:30 o'clock p.m. <br />Schwingler commented the building is also right on the bike trail and it would be a good asset to Navarre <br />and the community if the site is developed. <br />Thiesse stated he agrees with all that but he would like to call it what it really is. <br />Terrill Fridley, Attorney -at -Law, stated he has reviewed the parking easement and it is a cross parking <br />agreement. Fridley stated the agreement appears to allow parking for the southeast property on those <br />roughly 18 to 19 stalls and also allows parking for this facility on a similar number of stalls directly south <br />of that line. Fridley noted that area was all part of the Old Navarre Avenue that was eventually vacated. <br />Fridley stated in their view there is plenty of parking given the different times of use for the businesses in <br />the area. <br />Bill Wilson, Realtor, stated they have gone through the Orono City Code and they feel this is a good <br />approach. Wilson stated the reason they feel a conditional use permit would be good is because it is <br />narrow in scope and that they are willing to take the Planning Commission's input and address any <br />concerns they might have. Wilson noted they will also have the ability to add parking to the site since the <br />drive-through lane will be vacated. Wilson stated in their view it is a complementary use to the area. <br />Thiesse asked if they have any plans to ever use the drive-through. <br />Wilson stated there are not. Wilson stated they are attempting to limit the impact to the surrounding <br />homes and that there is really only one house nearby who is not opposed to the proposal. Wilson noted <br />that resident did not oppose the previous application either. <br />Schwingler asked if they will be running a catering outfit as well. <br />Patrick Bernet, Applicant, indicated they would be producing and distributing baked goods out of this <br />location. <br />Schoenzeit asked if the plan is ADA compliant. <br />Fridley stated it is and that the building is already sprinkled. <br />Page 4 of 15 <br />
