• <br /> MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,March 20,2017 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Gaffron stated it might have been in conjunction with the Emily Program or it could be possible that past <br /> City Councils were simply not interested in making that change. A number of cities utilize it as a tool but <br /> it could become a problem if the correct conditions are not placed on the applicant. Gaffron stated in his <br /> view it gives the City excellent control over the duration of the interim use. <br /> Leskinen commented it seems to be more secure than a conditional use permit. <br /> Gaffron noted a conditional use permit is permanent and an interim use permit could be terminated by the <br /> City Council at any point. <br /> Landgraver asked if a date certain could be set for the interim use,and then if that date is not met,the date <br /> could be extended. <br /> Gaffron stated that is one option. Another option is that the interim use could be required to be renewed <br /> on an annual basis. Gaffron stated one of the questions is what are the potential future uses or ancillary <br /> uses of the site that might not have been predicted or expected. Gaffron stated it could also be a trigger <br /> event rather than a trigger date. <br /> Gaffron asked if the Planning Commission would like to review Item No. 6 in conjunction with this <br /> application or separately. <br /> Lemke stated he would like more time to review this item since there are three options from three <br /> different cities they need to review. <br /> Thiesse commented this weekend was the first time he has seen this request and that he would <br /> recommend Staff prepare draft language for an ordinance so the Planning Commission and the public has <br /> something firm to review. <br /> Gaffron stated Staff did not prepare language because they were not sure whether the Planning <br /> Commission would be interested in an interim use ordinance. Gaffron indicated it would not take very <br /> long for Staff to draft language. <br /> Thiesse asked if another public hearing would then be required. <br /> Gaffron stated the Planning Commission has the option to hold a second public hearing or tabling the <br /> application at this meeting for further review. <br /> Landgraver asked if there is another work session scheduled for April. <br /> Barnhart indicated it would be April 5. <br /> Thiesse stated in his view the Planning Commission has an obligation to review and give a <br /> recommendation on a draft ordinance. Thiesse stated he thinks it is a good idea but that he would like to <br /> see some language regarding it. <br /> Landgraver commented that would also give people something to respond to. Landgraver stated it might <br /> also be useful to hear the next application. <br /> Page 8 of 43 <br />
