MINUTES OF ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD APRIL 23, 1990 <br />MARINA LICENSES CONTINUED • <br />Councilmember Goetten said that she has been an advocate of <br />establishing a marina committee for several years. Goetten <br />agreed with Nettles. <br />Councilmember Callahan referred to the minutes of the April <br />19, LMCD Meeting, paragraph 5D, regarding the development of an <br />action program for public access to Lake Minnetonka. Callahan <br />believed that a marina committee will be necessary to defend <br />itself and the citizens of Orono from the LMCD. Callahan asked <br />if anyone is familiar with the DNR Shoreland Grant Contract and <br />Preparation for Cities to Sign as Partners. He asked if the DNR <br />wishes to have Orono be a partner in something. <br />Bernhardson replied that as part of the shoreland <br />regulations passed by the DNR a year ago, they were giving grants <br />to cities for implementation. The effort through the LMCD was to <br />jointly establish regulations that would qualify the DNR <br />shoreland regulations. Bernhardson said that he would research <br />the matter further. <br />Mr. Gabriel Jabbour said that it was refreshing to see the <br />Council moving forward on the issue of marina committees. He <br />urged the Council to continue to be proactive, rather than <br />reactive. Mr. Jabbour suggested that Council may wish to go a <br />step beyond a marina committee by establishing ordinances "that <br />would provide teeth to bite into any regulations that may be • <br />mandated ". <br />It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by <br />Councilmember Goetten, that staff prepare a memorandum regarding <br />the history of Orono Marina Committees and their dealing with <br />issues beyond licensing. The memorandum should include <br />information regarding jurisdiction, past law suits, regulations <br />giving Orono control, and regulations giving the LMCD shared <br />control. Council would use this information to assist with the <br />process of appointing a marina committee as soon as possible. <br />Motion, Ayes -5, Nays -0, Motion passed. <br />BOARD OF REVIEW - RECONVENE* <br />It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by <br />Councilmember Peterson, that the Orono City Council sets <br />Thursday, May 3, 1990 as the date for the reconvene of the 1990 <br />Board of Review. Motion, Ayes -5, Nays -0, Motion passed. <br />SECRETARIAL EMPLOYMENT* <br />It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by <br />Councilmember Peterson, to approve the employment of Linda Vee as <br />secretary effective April 23, 1990 at a rate of $9.795 per hour <br />(Level IV, Step 1). Motion, Ayes -4, Nays -0, Motion passed. <br />- 14 - <br />• <br />
