PARR COMMISSION COMMENTS
PARR SURVEY
Public Works Director Gerhardson reported that a more
economical method of performing the Park Survey had been found.
By revising the method of mailing, the cost would decrease
from $2,000.00 to $2,500.00, to an amount between $1,500.00 and
$1,800.00. The one page survey would be printed with a return
address and bulk mail stamp so it would be mailed out in a first
class envelope, but returned as bulk mail. The survey would ask
a variety of questions, many of which would pertain to the
bike /hike trail.
Councilmember Goetten inquired as to whether the Park
Commission would tabulate the results themselves and whether they
would be funding the survey? Gerhardson replied that the Park
Commission would tabulate the surveys. The survey.is not an
allowable expenditure for the use of the park dedication fees;
the project would be funded by the City's General Fund.
Councilmember Goetten expressed -' -her wish to see the survey
• and Acting Mayor Peterson and Councilmember Nettles concurred.
City Administrator Bernhardson commented that the LMCD's
brochure on Eurasian Milfoil would be mailed along with the Park

#1329 THOMAS MCNELLIS
355 WOODHILL ROAD
VARIANCE
Mr. McNellis and Mr. Arthur Dickey, Mr. McNellis's
Architect, were present for this meeting.
A brief review of Mr. McNellis's application was provided by
City Administrator Bernhardson. In order for Mr. McNellis to
construct his proposed new residence, he would need approval for
a front setback variance and wetland setback variance. The
proposed. residence would encroach 4' into the 26' wetland
setback. The easement line was determined by using the 964
contour line. The actual edge of the wetlands is actually 36'
from the building envelope. Mr. McNellis's deck would be 32'
from the edge of the wetlands, but only 22' from the edge of the •
easement. Bernhardson further reported that he had met with Mr.
Dickey and Mr. McNellis and the possibility of a lot line
rearrangement was discussed. If Mr. McNellis could obtain a
2

ZONING FILE #1329- MCNELLIS CONTINUED
small portion of land from the neighboring property, he would not
require the front setback variance.
Acting Mayor Peterson asked Mr. McNellis how he felt about
the lot line rearrangement. Mr. McNellis stated that if it was
the only solution to the problem, he would not object. He went
on to say that placing the house in any other way within the
building envelope would greatly affect the drainage and
consequently the wetlands. He said that only 9% of the lot was
buildable. The proposed location for the house would have the
least impact on the mature stand of sugar maples on the property.
Mr. McNellis explained how the house would "notch into" the hill
on the property. By turning the house, he would not be able to
take advantage of a flat location that would aid in moving
drainage water into the wetlands. The, present proposal would
allow for maximum preservation of the natural resources on the
lot.
Acting Mayor Peterson inquired as to Mr. McNellis's
knowledge of the buildability of the lot at the time it was
purchased. Mr. McNellis stated that the covenants and
restrictions were quite lengthy. 'He added that Orono was one of
• the few cities that required 26' from the easement line of the
wetland. He was not aware of that requirement at the time he
purchased the lot. Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator
Gaffron explained that, in his opinion, the easement line was
determined arbitrarily. He added that no two topographical maps
are identical and it was possible that the map used to determine
the wetland easement had varying alignments from other maps on
file for this subdivision.
Acting Mayor Peterson asked Mr. McNellis to define his
hardship for the variances. Mr. McNellis explained that they
included topography, the drainage easement and the particular
location of a culvert on the property. When the building
envelope was determined, the culvert had not been discovered.
Peterson felt that it was difficult to approve a variance for a
piece of property that was recently platted. She added that it
was the front' yard setback variance that was the problem, not the
encroachment into the wetlands. Peterson asked if there was
anything that could be done with the design of the house to
alleviate the need for the front yard setback variance. Mr.
Dickey explained that the house would fit within the building
envelope if it were turned. However, turning it would create a
negative impact upon the wetlands. Councilmember Goetten
expressed her priority to be preservation of the wetlands, as
opposed to concern for the front setback.
• Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron showed
the various surveys and where the wetland easement was on each.
Gaffron added that when a wetland boundary line was determined
with an easement line, that line would be used for measuring to

avoid discrepancies. Councilmember Nettles asked whether there
would technically be any impact.to the wetlands due to the height
of the cantilevered deck? Gaffron answered that in his opinion,
Mr. McNellis's proposal would have little, if any, impact on the
wetlands.
Councilmember Nettles brought forth the issue of the lot
line rearrangement. Mr.. McNellis explained the ramifications of
proceeding in that manner, and added it would cause enough of a
delay that he would be unable to build until Spring. City
Administrator Bernhardson suggested that the Council grant the
variance for the wetland encroachment and indicate whether a lot
line rearrangement would be an acceptable remedy. Gaffron
suggested that approval be given for the application and the
issuance of the building permit be contingent upon the filing of
the subdivision application for the lot line rearrangement. This
would allow Mr. McNellis to begin work immediately.
It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by
Councilmember Goetten, to approve the wetland variance and
require the applicant to file and follow through with a lot line
rearrangement application in lieu of the front setback variance.
Motion, Ayes =3, Nays =O, Motion passed.
#1339 DAVID LEE •
2695 CASCO POINT ROAD
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/VARIANCE
RESOLUTION #2538
Mr. Lee and Mr. James Robin, Mr. Lee's Landscape Architect,
were present for this meeting.
City Administrator Bernhardson gave a brief synopsis of the
history of this application. It was determined at the last
Council Meeting that Mr. Lee be required to remove certain
timbers and fill so there will be some natural slope returned to
the bank.
Mr. Robin believed that it would be best to keep all of the
timbers and plant vegetation that would eventually screen the
wall from view. He said that he could not guarantee the same
kind of stability and screening by following the City staff's
recommendations. He asked that the Council reconsider their
decision to follow the City Engineer's recommendations and try to
reach another compromise.
Acting Mayor Peterson stated that she would be inclined to
stay with the City Engineer's recommendations. Councilmember
Nettles concurred, and added that he actually was leaning more
toward total restoration of the bank. However, since the project
was already completed, he felt that the City Engineer's •
recommendations were a compromise. He said that any deviation
from that recommendation would be an even greater straying from
4

ZONING FILE 11339 -DAVID LEE CONTINUED
the City's ordinances pertaining to the lakeshore. He did not
want to send the wrong message to the citizens of Orono.
Councilmember Goetten reiterated her concerns of informing the
Public of those ordinances. She added that she had to rely on
the information provided from the City Engineer in trying to make
the best of a bad situation.
Mr. Lee explained that he had received numerous phone calls
following an article that appeared in the Wayzata paper. He went
on to say that his neighbors were most supportive of him
improving his property. Mr. Lee also reiterated Mr. Robin's
arguments for keeping the timbers in place.
Acting Mayor Peterson asked whether the completion date of
April 30, 1989 was realistic? Mr. Robin and Mr. Lee felt it was
not, due to the frost. Peterson suggested June 30, 1989. Mr.
Lee agreed. Mr. Robin advised Mr. Lee to remove the timbers and
do the grading and fill work and immediately establish some kind
of ground cover for the bank.
It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by Acting
Mayor Peterson, to adopt Resolution #1339, approving the
conditional use permit, and amending the completion date to June
• 30, 1989. Motion, Ayes =3, Nays =O, Motion passed.
#1347 MICHAEL HALLEY HOMES, INC.
2.715 PENCE LANE
VARIANCE
RESOLUTION #2539
Mr. Bob Martinson, a representative for Michael Halley
Homes, and Mr. and Mrs. Dean Terry were present.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the original
proposal had been revised to address the concerns of Mr. Dailey
and Mr. Skifter. The gateway would now be located approximately
14' from the west lot line and 20' from the north lot line. The
10' setback variance to the north lot line would still be
required. A 12' by 12' backup apron has been included to
alleviate traffic turning around in neighboring driveways. If
the gate were moved back another 10' to 12' there would be no
need for a variance.
Mr. Martinson reiterated Bernhardson's explanation of the
revised proposal. He said that in response to the emergency
vehicle access issue, there are three ways to access the
electronically controlled gates: (1) Activation from within the
houses on the property; (2) Activation from the front by entering
in a code, which will be given to both the Police. and Fire
• Departments; and (3) a large mechanical pin could be pulled to
manually open the gates should there be a power failure. These
methods of access have been discussed and approved with the
Police and Fire Departments.

ZONING FILE #1347- MICHAEL HALT Y HOMES CONTINUED •
Councilmember Goetten asked for the hardship in this case.
Mrs. Terry and Mr. Martinson explained why they felt there was a
need to keep trespassers out. The main issue was the loss of
privacy. Goetten stated that there has been a lot of difficulty
establishing appropriate guidelines for fences. She felt this
was mainly due to the fact that citizens of Orono did not want
the fenced -in, confined atmosphere. She questioned whether the
City staff needed to take a comprehensive look at the issue of
fencing. City Administrator Bernhardson acknowledged Goetten's
concerns and said that he would be happy to proceed accordingly.
Acting Mayor Peterson asked Mr. Martinson if the gate could
be moved back so that a variance would not be required? Mr.
Martinson replied that he preferred to crowd the front property
line as much as possible. There would be a possibility of
trespassers going around the gate should it be moved back.
Further, the Terry's property line is very defined and it would
be better, from a security standpoint, to place the gateway where
the property begins.
Councilmember Nettles expressed his opinion to be that the
gateway was a convenience for the applicant, but not much else.
He did not believe that there would be enough trespassing traffic
to warrant the need for such security measures. He did not feel •
there was an adequate hardship for the variance for the gate.
Acting Mayor Peterson reiterated Councilmember Goetten's
suggestion of looking at the fencing issue as a whole. She said
that she would be inclined to approve this application,
especially in light of the fact that she had approved similar
applications in the past.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by Acting
Mayor Peterson, to adopt *Resolution #2539, approving the 10'
setback variance and height variance for Michael Halley Homes.
Motion, Ayes =2, Nettles, Nay, Motion passed.
MAYOR'S REPORT:
There was no Mayor's report for this meeting.
CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT:
LIQUOR LICENSE RENEWALS
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the liquor
licenses for Jimmies Lounge and Navarre Liquor were coming up for
renewal January 1, 1989. There have been concerns with the on-
sale operation. However, there have not been any charged
violations. Staff is recommending that the license holder be put
on more stringent notice and if there were direct violations for
which charges were issued, the matter would be brought before the •
Council.

MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 14, 1988
• LIQUOR LICENSE RENEWAL- CONTINUED
Councilmember Goetten asked for clarification as to whether
the Council could review any violations at the time of license
renewal or if it had to be reviewed immediately. Bernhardson
stated that there was no time limit established. City Attorney
Barrett confirmed Bernhardson's statement.
Councilmember Nettles inquired as to the costs involved for
any additional monitoring that was necessary by the Police
Department? Bernhardson replied that in actual patrol time,
there were no additional costs. The Officers had been advised to
be especially attentive to potential violations.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this was an
information item and that it would be brought back to either the
Council meeting on the 28th of November or the 12th of December.
COUNTY ROAD 51
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that he had
expected to receive additional information, but it had not
arrived. This item was basically for the purpose of updating the
Council as to the current standing with the County.
Councilmember Goetten asked why this issue of safety was
• dropped several years ago? Bernhardson responded that the DNR
and County were looking at parking in those areas and because of
the possibility of the additional land being condemned, the City
dropped it. When this issue was raised in 1985, it was the
trespassing issue that was the major concern, not pedestrian
safety, on which the City continued to work.
ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION
City Administrator Bernhardson stated that he was bringing
this matter before the Council with the recommendation that a
two -day suspension be given to Officer Larry Tomcheck. In
addition, another day of 'suspension would be held in abeyance,
pending no further violations before April 1, 1989. This
recommendation resulted from two separate incidents wherein
Officer Tomcheck exhibited behavior that was unprofessional and
potentially hazardous. Bernhardson stated that in a case where
an employee union did not exist, the next step, should the
Council recommend suspension, would be to appeal to the Council
for a hearing if the employee chose such an appeal. However, Mr.
Tomcheck is a member of the Police Union so the appeal would go
through the grievance process and an arbitrator.
Acting Mayor Peterson stated that in her opinion, Mr.
Tomcheck is now performing his work properly. She mentioned the
fact that Mr. Tomcheck was asked to take two days off for an
evaluation. Bernhardson explained that Tomcheck did receive sick
• pay for those two days. She felt that holding the day of
suspension in abeyance for the past 10 months was more severe
than two days of suspension with no pay. In her opinion, it
7
.a
:r
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 14, 1988
ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION - CONTINUED
caused Mr. Tomcheck to question every move he made, everyday.
Peterson observed that Mr. Tomcheck paid for the evaluation
himself and asked if there were any problems discovered with the
evaluation. Bernhardson said that in light of the two incidences
occurring back -to -back, the purpose of the observation period was
to assure them that there would not be a continuing pattern.
Peterson then asked whether Mr. Tomcheck had received any oral or
written reprimands. Bernhardson replied that to the best of his
knowledge there had not been any written reprimand, and could not
recall any oral reprimands being given.
It was moved by Acting Mayor Peterson, seconded by
Councilmember Goetten, to take no further action on this matter
at this time. Peterson felt that the 10 month waiting period was
a sufficient penalty. Bernhardson explained that the 1 day
suspension held in abeyance pending any further violations was
the only factor. That would have been the same whether the two -
day suspension was assesed now or back in March. Bernhardson
stated that the violations were very serious and felt that the
recommended discipline was appropriate. He did not feel that the
time delay in assessing the discipline had a significant negative
effect upon Officer Tomcheck.
Councilmember Goetten stated that there was no question that
Mr. Tomcheck's violations were serious. She reiterated •
Peterson's concerns about the time delay in determining the
disciplinary actions to be taken. She felt that praise and
discipline should be given immediately following the action. She
observed that all of the information she had heard or read
concerning Officer Tomcheck had been exemplary. Bernhardson
agreed with Goetten that discipline should be assessed quickly
and felt that under the circumstances and the need to evaluate
all of the factors involved, this matter had proceeded in a
timely manner. He added that he would be flexible in dealing
with the deadline for the extra one day of suspension. He
suggested that February 1, 1989, may be more appropriate than
April 1, 1989.
Councilmember Nettles made reference to the actual written
City and Police Department Policies pertaining to employee
behavior. He said that he was not clear on what the policy was
for off -duty display of fire arms for police officers.
Bernhardson replied that Officer Tomcheck was mainly in violation
of the City's rules. Bernhardson stated that Tomcheck exhibited
negligence in the performance of duty, as well as offensive
conduct toward the public and took actions that were detrimental
to the public's health, safety and welfare. Bernhardson further
explained that Officer Tomcheck was involved in a situation that
could have been explosive, and had been asked not to participate,
but continued to do so. His actions consequently required •
additional police response, and because of the nature of the
situation, those officers were also endangered. Nettles observed
D
F Y'
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 14, 1988
ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION CONTINUED "
that the off -duty possession of fire arms is not prohibited.
There was also no cross - reference made as to the use of
intoxicants. Bernhardson explained that he was not solely using
one or the other of those particular rules. He was relating the
entire incident to various rules concerning misconduct. He
further explained that Officer Tomcheck acted in an "on- duty"
capacity even though he was off -duty. He caused such a problem
by doing so, that had he not been carrying his service revolver,
discipline would still have been forthcoming.
Councilmember Goetten concurred with Nettles in that she
could not ascertain exactly what rules Officer Tomcheck had
violated. Bernhardson reiterated the potential danger Officer
Tomcheck placed not only himself, but the Officers called to
assist him. His conduct was very inappropriate. If each of the
violations occurred separately, they would not have been
as much of a concern, however, put together, they constituted a
very serious situation. The question on Acting Mayor Peterson's
Motion was called. Motion, Ayes =1, Goetten, Nettles, Nay.
Councilmember Nettles interpreted the situation as he
understood it to be. He concluded that what actually needed to
be done was to provide a written reprimand for Officer Tomcheck's
• file so that the City would be on record as not condoning his
actions. Councilmember Goetten concurred with Nettles. She felt
that the City should perform some kind of reprimand, but the two -
day suspension seemed too severe. Acting Mayor Peterson asked
about the length of time the written reprimand would remain in
Officer Tomcheck's file. City Administrator Bernhardson
responded that the Council could determine a time limit.
It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by
Councilmember Goetten, to issue a written reprimand to be placed
in Officer Tomcheck's file, outlining the violations of the
Police Department regulations, as well as the City Rules, and
explain why Officer's Tomcheck's activities were undesireable to
the City. In addition, the written reprimand would remain in his
file permanently. Motion, Ayes =2, Peterson, Nay, Motion passed.
APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR FOR 1988
It was recommended by City Administrator Bernhardson to
appoint the audit firm of Pannell Kerr Forster, to perform the
required audits of the 1988 fiscal year records.
Councilmember Goetten inquired about receipt of the
Certificate of Achievement. Bernhardson said he had not heard
anything, but it takes 4 to 6 months to receive it.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by
• Councilmember Nettles, to appoint the audit firm of Pannell Kerr
Forster to perform the required audits for the 1988 fiscal year
at an estimated cost of $14,000, plus direct expenses. Motion,

HAZARDOUS BUILDING PROCEEDINGS
4545 WATERTOWN ROAD
RESOLUTION #2540
Mr. Jim Miller, the manager of the subject property, was
present on Mr. Earl Freeman's behalf.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the list of
items set forth in the Resolution would need to be addressed
before occupancy could resume. The City Attorney would file this
matter with the court. The Court would set a schedule as to when
the building must be repaired. If the owner fails to meet that
schedule the building would be torn down.
Mr. Miller asked whether he would need to have all of the
items listed repaired? He cited, as an example, that the rooms
are too small. He asked how he could remedy that item.
Bernhardson recommended that Mr. Miller meet with Building
Inspector Jacobs. He said that Mr. Jacobs could identify.those
items, if any that would not require repair prior to the Court
Order being, rescinded.
Councilmember Nettles inquired as to whether the building •
would need to be enlarged before it would meet Orono's standards,
or whether it could be "grandfathered "? Zoning Administrator
Mabusth stated that would need further review.
Councilmember Goetten asked what time frame the owner would
be given before the matter was filed with the court? Bernhardson
replied that Mr. Miller would have approximately 10 days to.
determine which items needed to be addressed. However, if it
appears as though the building cannot be repaired, the City would
proceed with the court after that time period.
It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by Acting
Mayor Peterson, that they adopt Resolution #2540, initiating
Hazardous Building Proceedings at 4545 Watertown Road. Motion,
Ayes =3, Nays =O, Motion passed.
