The property is currently zoned RR-1B and will be rezoned to PUD <br /> following final plat approval. Pending more favorable market conditions,the applicants have chosen to <br /> not proceed immediately with the residential development. The applicants are requesting,however,to be <br /> able to allow temporary use of the site as a staging, storage and materials recycling yard for the upcoming <br /> County Road 112 improvement project expected to begin in 2017. This project is being done in phases <br /> and could take up to four to five years for completion. <br /> Because construction staging is not an allowed use in any Orono zoning district and is not a permanent <br /> use,the only functional method for approving it is through an Interim Use Permit. The zoning code <br /> currently does not contain provisions for Interim Uses. The applicants are requesting the City amend the <br /> zoning code in order to allow Interim Uses. <br /> Page 8of64 <br />
