MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, May 10, 2021 <br />6:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Page 20 of 34 <br /> <br />14. LA21-000017 – JOSEPH & SARA THULL, 480 BIG ISLAND, PERMIT FOR DOCK ON <br />CITY RIGHT-OF-WAY (BAY PLACE) – UPDATE – Continued <br /> <br />Crosby stated that can be in the discussion later and there has to be a reasonableness to it. <br /> <br />Walsh said the Council needs to make a decision about approving or not approving. <br /> <br />Johnson clarified they would deny Mr. Thull’s application and introduce a new one? <br /> <br />Barnhart thinks he heard some expansion of the dock licensing program that the City employs for Crystal <br />Bay Road, which has its own built-in infrastructure. He would come back with an expansion of that <br />license – it is not a permit – to identify future dock sites and employs the same application. <br />Walsh suggested starting with Bay Place. He suggested directing Staff and the City Attorney to draft a <br />new license for that Bay Place with the Thull’s doing the initial application and with Ms. Farnes as the <br />second – unless she does not want it. It would be a one-year license along the same lines as Crystal Bay. <br /> <br />Barnhart said hopefully the Council would approve the Thull’s application for a license at the next <br />meeting. The length and other things are kind of employed by the LMCD so that question has already <br />been answered. He would come back with a license application by Mr. Thull. <br /> <br />Walsh said the Council should probably make a motion to dissolve the current license or permit that is <br />there. <br /> <br />Attorney Mattick stated they will bring back the revised ordinance and asked Barnhart if that is correct. <br /> <br />Barnhart can look into it. <br /> <br />Johnson said they would have to modify it a little bit, one of which was a 10 year term and these would be <br />one year and would specify dock length. <br /> <br />Attorney Mattick thinks because they will modify the ordinance, it would be best to bring back the <br />amended ordinance with the changes the Council wants with the new application and they take care of it <br />in one fell swoop. <br /> <br />Walsh said they would just table it now until the next meeting. Then they can deal with the other sites as <br />they move forward. <br /> <br />Johnson asked Mr. Thull if this is the one he wants it to be. <br /> <br />Mr. Thull asked if it is possible to come back and say a location may be a better option? <br /> <br />It is not a problem for Johnson or Walsh. Walsh does not have a problem looking at other locations but he <br />wants to deal with this one while they are here with Bay Place. He asked Mr. Thull if he wants a dock <br />there.
