Docks are among the listed conditional uses in the <br />Floodway outlined in Section 78-1118. <br />The dock will be 6 feet wide and 180 feet long. The proposal includes a viewing/ seating <br />platform into the open water area. The dock will be constructed of wood, including wood <br />support pilings. No lights are proposed on the structure. <br />This portion of the lake floodplain does not include any boatable connection to Lake <br />Minnetonka. <br />Temporary docks are common into the floodplain, but do not require a Conditional Use Permit <br />due to their temporary nature. A portion of the dock will encroach into a wetland, though docks <br />which provide reasonable access to the lakeshore and do not exceed eight feet in width are a <br />permitted use.
