MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, November 21, 2016 <br />6:30 o'clock p.m. <br />wants to avoid opening it up to other entities having docks on the lake and that the ordinance has been <br />very narrowly tailored to these two outside agencies. <br />Barnhart noted Fire Chief Van Eyll is present tonight to provide some feedback to the Planning <br />Commission. <br />Lemke asked why overnight boat storage was not allowed originally. <br />Barnhart stated to his knowledge part of the concern was that the City wanted to avoid Hennepin County <br />using this dock as kind of a satellite office versus the one in Spring Lake Park. <br />Thiesse stated it is a fairly prevalent non-developed property and that it does not need to have a number of <br />boats. <br />Lemke asked how many boats can be accommodated. <br />Barnhart indicated it largely depends on the depth of the water but perhaps three or four. Some of the <br />issues initially raised will be reviewed again as part of this ordinance amendment. The City did receive <br />site plan approval for the dock, fence, and gate. Barnhart noted this would be a modification to the site <br />plan if approved and that the City will have to review all of those same issues. <br />Thiesse asked if the fence and gate will be removed. <br />Barnhart stated the fence is there. <br />Fire Chief James Van Eyll stated the fence and gate were added once the dock was put in place after the <br />4r' of July. <br />Gaffron stated it is a clerical error that it was not included in the draft ordinance. <br />Thiesse asked if Long Lake trailers their boat now and whether there is a reason why it could not be <br />stored at a marina. <br />Page 2 of 12 <br />
