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 28t' 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. The residents should start seeing some progress soon with the roads <br />being built. <br />Rief stated he will be meeting with Police Chief Farniok, the Long Lake City Administrator, and Fire <br />Chief to do some joint training. <br />CITY ATTORNEY REPORT <br />City Attorney Mattick stated he had nothing to report. <br />Page 19 of 20 <br />
