explained that the legislature is not keeping up with the rate of inflation in terms of
funding for schools and noted that special education services that are required are also
not funded by the State. She stated that the School District faces a $900,000 deficit in
the 2017-2018 school year. She provided additional information on the needs of the
School District and the funding that could be provided through these questions that will
be on the ballot. She noted that the activity center would be used by students as well as
other members of the community.
Mitchell referenced the number of school children that was given in the presentation of
2,800 and asked how many of those children are high school aged.
Ms. Van de Ven stated that there are approximately 225 children in each grade so
approximately 800-1,000 in the high school.
Mitchell commented that he lived in the Orono school district growing up and stated that
the community was so proud to have its own high school when that was built. He stated
that the people that have been on the Orono School Board for all these years know the
community and its needs and therefore he trusts that the schools do need that money.
He stated that it is a terrific school district.
VII. COMMENTS (7:23 p.m.)
A. Comments from Citizens on Items not on the Agenda
There were none.
B. Park Commission
Scherer reported that the Park Commission will meet the following night to consider park
dedication for the AutoMotorPlex and will also hear a request for the Hawks' baseball
fields.
C. Planning Commission
White reported that the Planning Commission met the previous week and held a public
hearing for the AutoMotorPlex requests. She stated that Finke provided a presentation
along with brief comments from the applicant. She stated that there was a fair amount of
discussion regarding landscaping and parking. She reported that ultimately the Planning
Commission recommended approval with a vote of five to one, noting that she was the
dissenting vote.
Pederson asked if there were a lot of residents present for the public hearing.
White commented that most of the seats were filled, noting that some comments were in
favor of the request while others were not.
Mitchell asked the pros and cons regarding the use of a PUD both for the City and
developer.
White stated that the building standards seemed to exceed the standards for that area
and would be a better transition from business to rural residential. She noted that there
were a number of other items agreed upon by the Commission that she could not recall
at the moment. She stated that she was concerned with the amount of drainage from
the property to the neighboring property and whether that would fully be addressed.
