� ;1IiJUTES OF A REGULAR r�EETING HELD "-1AY 29, 1973 �age 3
• Tlie Council then stated reasons w;zy the IDS
� proposal cvas voted down.
� T;ie height variance was denied because it is
contrary to tne ordinance. An amenclment of
� tlie ordinance would �e required. There is
Village wicle opposition to ]iigh buildin�
� structures that would be more than the current
allowable heigiit. The proposed tiao t�wers
• are not compatible with this community.
� Tlie conditional use for the multiple dwellings
a requested was denied for several reasons.
First, the number of units IDS waiited is in
� excess of what our planner recommendecl.
Secondly, the area is now served by two tcvo-
• iane roads of limited capacity whicii affects
tne areas ability to have a density as liigh
� as requested without ]iaving to upgrade the
� existing road networlc. Any application �a�zich
�vould allow these limits to be exceeded is a
, da;lger to the Villa�e. Studies indicate that
tiie granting of the IDS proposal or allowing
� tiie area to develop on a piece by piece basis
�aould cause the existing liigliway capacity
• to be exceeded. P.1any feel there is too much
commercially zoned property in tlie Navarre
� area now. One of che objectives of the Orono
� Comprehensive Plan, which is being t,rorked on
iio�v, is to try and provide an improvement of
� the distribuzion of tlie commercial property
-t;iat now exists in the Navarre area.
•
'Tiie rezoning request was denied for tlie size
� and development scope of the project is in
?xcess of what the area can support at this
a .:ime and due to all of tlze previous comments
* that have been macie above. It is also
recognized that if tiie rezonin� was allowed,
� the Village �aould lose control of what
development can go into tlie rezoned area.
� The Villa�e wislies to maintain that control
• T;ie street vacation request itself would not
. �e tlie sole preventor of t?ie project; however,
due to all of the above comments , it is now a
� mute issue.
� :•Iayor Oberiiauser then stated t;iat being as the
l�roposal of IDS �,ras defeated, the Council may
� ���isii to give IDS some conce tual guidelines
:�f a developmeiit that migit e acceptable.
