MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, March 20,2017 <br />6:30 o'clock p.m. <br />Barnhart indicated the property owner owns four lots in this area, including portions of the wetland near <br />the dock. <br />Thiesse asked if what they are proposing will be high enough out of the water. <br />Barnhart stated the City requires structures to be one foot above the water. <br />Alex Ugorets, 175 Brentwood, Tonka Bay, stated the reason he would like a dock is to serve as an <br />amenity to the professional clients that will be renting office space in the building. Ugorets stated he <br />envisions the tenants utilizing the dock on nice days when they wish to work outside and in his opinion <br />that will be the only use of the dock. <br />Ugorets noted it will be a permanent structure but will be more of a walkway rather than a dock since <br />there is no way to get a boat in and out of that area. Ugorets indicated he does own the wetland near the <br />dock. <br />Landgraver asked if the dock will be secured at night. <br />Ugorets stated he did not plan to secure it since it is not that easy to access except from the back of the <br />building. Ugorets indicated there are cameras on the building, and unless there is an issue with the dock, <br />he does not see a need for securing it at night. <br />Lemke asked what type of wood will be used to construct the dock. <br />Ugorets indicated it will either be treated wood or cedar and that it will be constructed to meet the <br />requirements of the code. No creosote treated wood will be used. Ugorets stated the proposed plan <br />merely depicts the location of the dock and has not been designed to City specifications at this time but <br />will be at the time they request a building permit. <br />Lemke asked why there is a rope that extends four feet above. <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />
