iINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETZNG HELD FEBRUARY 11, 1985. PAGE 8 <br /> Councilmember L. Adams asked Kunze if he felt that developing <br /> the land to Orono ' s current zoning code would be unpracticle. <br /> Kunze felt that it would be unpracticle and Long I,ake might <br /> not even develop the land if requested to develop without <br /> sewer and water . <br /> N,ayor Butler noted that this property is in a two acre zoning <br /> district. Butler also noted that there is wetlands on the <br /> property. <br /> Councilmember Frahm noted that this development would set a <br /> precedent if Long Lake was allowed to develop without regard <br /> to Orono' s zoning code. Frahm stated that Orono would have <br /> to change their Comprehensive Plan in order to approve this <br /> development. <br /> Arlo Vande Vegte, attorney, stated that this development <br /> would not set a precedent because of the uniaue <br /> circumstances . Vande Vegte stated that the land is owned by <br /> another municipality and is adjacent to such municipality. <br /> Councilmember L. Adams stated that the sewer pond is an <br /> eyesore. Adams stated that he would like to see more than 12 <br /> units nicely laid out on the land. Adams asked why the City <br /> doesn 't consider transferring the property over to the City <br /> of Long Lake. <br /> Mayor Butler explained that the annexation of the sewer pond <br /> property over to Long Lake was discussed before and the <br /> Council at that time was not in favor of the annexation. <br /> Butler noted to Kunze that clustering of the homes in a PRD <br /> type development would save Long Lake money in running the <br /> sewer and water lines to the properties . <br /> Councilmember Grabek moved , Councilmember L. Adams <br /> seconded, to direct staff to work with the City of Long Lake to <br /> work out a reasonable and feasible plan that meets Orono ' s <br /> zoning codes , and further directs staff to consider the PRD <br /> type development. Motion, Ayes (5 ) , Nays ( 0 ) . <br /> Councilmember Grabek asked Kunze if Long Lake would be <br /> interested in selling the property to Orono. Grabek asked <br /> that Kunze come back with a price next time he meets with the <br /> Orono Council if he is interested in selling the property. <br /> Councilmember L. Adams stated that he is interested in Long <br /> Lake' s developing the property to Orono' s standards ( 12 <br /> houses with no sewers ) and then deeding the property to Long <br /> Lake because it is adjacent to Long Lake. Adams stated that <br /> if it became a part of Long Lake and they put restrictions in <br /> the title of the two acre lots , that they could not be <br /> subdivided, it would be a buffer zone. <br />
