CITY OF ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 6 7 7 1 3. The Property is zoned RRA B One -family Rural Residential District requiring a minimum lot area of 2.00 acres and a minimum lot width of 200 feet. The Property is approximately 26 acres in area of which approximately 13 acres is wetland and approximately 10 acres is a closed landfill. 4. The Property and an adjacent parcel are the subject of City of Orono Resolution No. 6655 which grants preliminary plat approval for a 27 -lot single family residential development within the adjacent parcel and within a portion of the Property. 5. The site plan suggests that temporary lighting may be employed, and it is possible that to minimize impact on traffic flow, some work on the highway improvements may be at night. It would be appropriate to establish that any temporary lighting be downcast and directed away from residential areas. 6. The submitted site plan indicates a proposed visual and noise -screening berm along the west and south boundaries of the site. Applicant is working with the MPCA to establish parameters and obtain permits for this berm, which will become an amenity for future residential development, but has not received the necessary permits. The applicants' narrative suggests that this site might be used as a recycling yard for projects other than just the Wayzata Boulevard improvements. 8. Review per Zoning Code Section 78-916.
