MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,May 20,2013 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> buildings on the east side and different buildings on the west side. The boat club has a conditional use <br /> permit and the two houses have remained essentially the same for the past 20 to 30 years. <br /> Kujawa pointed out one of the houses was remodeled and is currently being rented out. Kujawa stated he <br /> did not know about the partying going on currently but that the previous tenant had a lot of parties. <br /> Kujawa noted the commercial property is a marina and that boats come in late at night, which is one thing <br /> you do not get with the boat club. Kujawa stated the boats come in at dusk,they are cleaned up, and then <br /> the employees are out of there. <br /> Bennett asked what time the boats need to be back per their agreement with their customers. <br /> Kujawa indicated the boats must be in by sunset. If the boats come in before dusk,they will get cleaned <br /> up and then the employees are done for the day. If a boat is brought back late,the boat club member <br /> could lose their privileges. Kujawa noted the regular marina tenants come and go at different hours. <br /> Schoenzeit asked if the boat club employees ever have parties in that house or spend the night there. <br /> Kujawa stated to his knowledge his employees have never slept in that house. <br /> Leskinen asked if the employees have access to the house after business hours or whether someone has <br /> the responsibility to lock up that property before they leave. <br /> Kujawa stated two of his employees have keys to the house. Kujawa stated he is not aware of his <br /> employees being in there after hours. <br /> Lemke asked if he anticipates redoing the house if it is purchased. <br /> Kujawa stated something needs to be done with the house and that it cannot stay in its current state. <br /> Lemke asked how he would respond to the concerns raised about the wrong way parking along Shoreline <br /> Drive and that type of thing. <br /> Kujawa stated they did discuss parking with the police chief a couple of weeks ago and he indicated that <br /> there were not issues. Kujawa indicated he is aware of two times where there were cars parked on the <br /> street and they were ticketed. The previous tenant of the retail operation had a lot of boats staged in the <br /> parking lot which took up a lot of space over a very busy holiday weekend and there were cars parked on <br /> the street. Kujawa stated he is aware of one other time where people parked on the street and they were <br /> informed not to park there. The parking lot has been striped which has helped improve parking <br /> substantially. Kujawa stated as far as the comments about pedestrians crossing the road outside of the <br /> crosswalk,that is one of the things they are attempting to mitigate. <br /> Kujawa noted Anderson was in here last year regarding the boat club's conditional use permit and he was <br /> arguing that it should not be allowed because Anderson owned the only marina that had a conditional use <br /> permit in an attempt to increase the value of his property. Kujawa indicated he is not sure why he is <br /> against it this time. If you look at the parking lot located at 1444 Shoreline Drive, people for his marina <br /> are parking in here all the time and walking across the street. People also park in this lot. Kujawa <br /> indicated he spoke with Anderson's son and he said they should be ticketed and towed. Kujawa stated <br /> rather than be contentious, his employees will direct them to the proper spot. Kujawa indicated there are <br /> Page 16 of 25 <br />
