He reported the <br /> significant changes within the past year. <br /> Mr. Jessen presented a proposed site plan for Noerenberg <br /> Park. <br /> At this point, a short slide and sound presentation was <br /> made regarding the makeup and budget of the Park Reserve. <br /> 1535 BOHN'S POINT ROAD � <br /> Representing Mr. Ulrich was his project consultant, John <br /> Noble. <br /> City Administrator Bernhardson reviewed staff's memo <br /> regarding the height of bui lding. He noted that based <br /> on Orono's current code, the building is in conformance <br /> based on the "mean" height. <br /> Zoning Administrator Mabusth noted that regarding the <br /> issue of grading and filling, a landscape plan will be <br /> submitted along with an application for an after-the- <br /> fact conditional use permit to the Planning Commission <br /> at their January meeting. <br /> Councilmember Adams stated that he felt a maximum height <br /> should be addressed in the ordinance rather than a <br /> "mean'° height. <br /> Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that she felt being <br /> more restrictive in height might tend to dictate the <br /> size and design of homes. <br /> M.L. and Virginia Sweatt, 3225 Bohn's Point Lane, were <br /> present for this matter. Mrs. Sweatt stated that she <br /> felt the height and massiveness of the structure does <br /> not conform with the spirit of Bohn' s Point. She <br /> believes the City should have maximum size restrictions . <br /> Councilmember Hammerel stated he felt projects this size <br /> should be presented before the Council for review before <br /> issuance of a building permit even though they conform <br /> with existing code. <br /> It was moved by Councilmember Grabek, seconded by Mayor <br /> Butler, to accept the information from staff r�garding <br /> the Ulrich property and continue to maintain a <br /> vigilance of the property.
