MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Monday,June 10,2019 <br /> 7:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> Crosby stated he would be in favor of discussing it but at this time he is probably not in favor of changing <br /> it. <br /> Seals stated having that discussion would be good, but the Council needs to be really conscious about <br /> what Pandora's Box will be open. <br /> Walsh stated they can see what other cities do and why they do it. <br /> Johnson noted there were two complaints the City received where they have a multi-million-dollar lot <br /> without a house and they were told they had to remove their dock. There were also some people that <br /> were allowed to put in a dock because they have started framing their house, so there is some ambiguity. <br /> Johnson stated they need to discuss why, if someone owns a lot, why can they not put up a dock. <br /> VOTE: Ayes 5,Nays 0. <br /> Johnson stated the conversation about the marina licenses has slowed down and that he and Council <br /> Member Seals still have not received the summary of the City's marinas. Johnson stated the City should <br /> be pushing forward on this conversation about the marina licenses since there are some legislative <br /> changes coming forward clarifying who has jurisdiction. <br /> Barnhart indicated he should have the information to them by the end of this week. <br /> Rief noted it is scheduled to be discussed at a special work session on July 8. <br /> Crosby commented he will be celebrating his 28th wedding anniversary next week. <br /> Seals noted school is out, which is exciting for the kids. <br /> Printup reported the Orono Police Department received some positive national recognition this past week. <br /> Walsh stated the Police Department has received hundreds of e-mails and comments on Fox News <br /> website about the police dog recognition and police officer recognition. <br /> CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT <br /> Rief stated he also received a number of e-mail comments today regarding Officer Matt and his lawn <br /> mowing. One of the comments that was received was as far away as Australia. <br /> Rief reported he has reviewed all of the city roads that are under construction and that a couple of them <br /> have been closed for drainage work.
