MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, February 10, 2020 <br />6:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Page 12 of 15 <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Brown said it was five-six feet. <br /> <br />Johnson asked if the City Council is being asked to approve an ordinance, or in the same stroke is this <br />also approving the docks for that stretch. <br /> <br />Barnhart said he is looking for direction for changes in the ordinance and then will bring it back. The <br />Council could direct the City Attorney to draft a template License Agreement so the Council reviews it, is <br />comfortable with it, and adopts it. Then the property owners can be invited to make license applications. <br /> <br />Printup moved, Seals seconded, to accept what the City Council has with the changes and then move <br />forward at the same time to have Attorney Mattick start putting together a License Agreement to couple <br />with that for review again as a final package. <br /> <br />Johnson suggested adding a provision that it be the property owner's primary residence. He asked if it's a <br />vacation rental, if that property can be used by someone other than the property owner. There are four <br />properties -- two with docks, two without -- and the City is giving two people that don't have the privilege <br />now, so wouldn't it make sense that it is their primary residence in order to have the privilege. <br /> <br />Walsh stated if the property owner's primary residence is Florida, he would say no. As long as they own <br />the property and they can show they own the boat, they have the right to put it out there. He would keep it <br />with the homeowner, whether it's their primary residence or not. <br /> <br />Johnson asked if the homeowner would be allowed to create a rental, purchase a boat in their name, and <br />rent it out with the privilege of the boat as part of their rental. <br /> <br />Crosby said if it is not in the homeowner's name, the answer would be no. <br /> <br />Printup, Seals, and Walsh said it has to be the same owner for the boat and home. <br /> <br />Crosby said the City would be getting into situations of VBRO, like renting out a vacation home for a <br />longer period of time. <br /> <br />Walsh said if they want to rent out their house and have somebody use their boat because it's at their <br />dock, that is their issue. The Council is giving the homeowner the right but it's got to be his boat at the <br />dock. <br /> <br />Crosby said the craft has to be licensed to the homeowner. <br /> <br />Walsh said it would be clear that the City would not let somebody rent and have their own boat. <br /> <br />Crosby stated he thought that language would cut out a lot of that situation. <br /> <br />Walsh said the City does not have a lot of that to begin with. <br /> <br />Johnson agreed but said it could be created. <br />
