MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, November 21, 2016 <br />6:30 o'clock p.m. <br />Gaffron stated one of the early discussions revolved around parking potentially becoming an issue. <br />Schoenzeit commented there will definitely be a gawker slowdown on the road. <br />Van Eyll stated there was one situation where they ended up having to direct traffic to keep people <br />moving along. <br />Lemke asked if the majority of the problems occur on the weekends. <br />Van Eyll indicated most of the problems occur over the 4' of July holiday, with the rest mainly occurring <br />on the weekends. <br />Lemke asked if it would make sense to store the boat there just on the weekends. <br />Van Eyll stated from a volunteer standpoint, it would be difficult to get someone to put it in the water on <br />Friday afternoon and then take it out on Sunday evening. <br />Crosby commented it is a very large boat and all steel. <br />Leskinen asked if the boat would be on the water May through November. <br />Van Eyll stated it was be during the boating season, which typically starts when the buoys go out. This <br />year was an extended boating season and the last few boats have just been pulled out of the water <br />Lemke stated his preference would be to table it and that they do not need to do anything at this time of <br />the year. Lemke suggested the Long Lake Fire Department perhaps explore some marinas in the <br />meantime. <br />Schoenzeit stated he is not seeing the same issues and that in his view this should be rubber stamped <br />given the safety issues. <br />Page 9 of 12 <br />
