MINUTES OF A REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD APRIL 26, 1993 LMCD REPORT — CONT. Kelley asked if the study includes a survey of users of the public access and where they came from. Hurr noted the study would indicate within a certain mileage where users came from. Jabbour reported the fishing contest was held last weekend and there were 88 boats parking on County and City streets, 21 boats in Gayles Marina, and 73 parked at North Arm landing. He presented pictures of garbage left at the landing, and felt the County should replace the garbage containers that were removed this year. He suggested the City remove the trash and bill the County. Kelley noted the issue of garbage containers has been brought up with regard to the Maxwell Bay landing. Jabbour stated he knows there is a lot of abuse with people dumping • garbage from home at public locations, but felt that it was their responsibility to provide areas for disposal at public locations. Goetten noted this issue has been discussed at the Lake Use Committee meetings and some felt there should be containers. She said she also fe I t they should provide a container for the m i I fo i I removed from boats and trailers. She suggested monitoring the situation at the landing this summer to determine how they wish to handle the situation at Maxwell Bay. Jabbour suggested providing collars on the containers not allowing larger items to be dumped in. Hurr felt items too large would just be left next to the container. She felt they should monitor the situation of no garbage cans for one year before making a decision. Kelley suggested removing the can for recyclables also. Hurr agreed that would be best. Mayor Callahan directed staff to contact the County to have the trash removed from the landing. Jabbour agreed that they should monitor the situation, and if it does not get better, replace garbage containers at the public • landing areas. 2
