ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MONDAY, JULY 9.2001 <br />Pat Fleming at 4760 North Arm Drive stated that the ordinance is outdated because boats <br />are larger today, and wanted the size restriction expanded. <br />Chuck Boehn at 997 Wildhurst Trail stated that people should simply be considerate of <br />their neighbors and work things out themselves. He stated that he could not afford storage <br />prices, and he fell there were a few people complaining who had decided to act as the <br />conscience of Orono. He suggested dropping the length restriction and only enforcing <br />complaints. <br />Jim Theison at 1295 Elmwood stated the ordinance is outdated and the current regulation <br />is too stringent for a boating community. He suggested increasing the allowed length to <br />30’ and only enforcing the ordinance alter two complaints are received from different <br />parties within one year. <br />Natalya Cherherskayi at 2480 Casco Point Road stated that besides being unattractive out <br />of w ater, boats stored in yards are a safety risk. She was recently sitting on her deck and <br />watched as her neighbor’s boat trailer rolled off of his property, down a slope and into her <br />yard. She had been gardening in the path of the trailer only the day before. She was <br />concerned that many trailers are not properly blocked and could roll away.
