ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MONDAY, JULY 9,2001 <br />Betsy Nea‘:baum at 3480 North Shore Drive asked for a definition of screening. Gaffron <br />stated that in her situation the storage area would be in the vard between the house and the <br />alley, but that the 10’ setback from property lines eliminates much of the yard. <br />Lorraine Kavey at 1395 Brown Road stated that she also has a lot that does not fit into the <br />e.xamples given, and suggested the ordinance be throwTi out, and felt that complaints <br />should be anonymous so that she could talk to the complaining neighbor. <br />Gabriel Jabbour at 985 Tonkawa Road slated that he feels that requiring off-site storage <br />would hit the people hardest who can least afford it. He also stated that Orono has 33% of <br />Minnetonka’s lakeshore, but only allows storage of about 350 boats in its marinas and <br />prohibits outside storage in the industrial and commercial areas, which creates a hardship <br />for the residents. He fell responsible to his immediate neighbors, but did not people who <br />could see his boat in driving past his property would have a reason to complain. <br />Tim Line at 4415 Casco Point Road stated that his definition of a neighborhood is broader <br />than many others. He does not care to drive bv boats covered in blue 7 months out of the <br />year. He suggested Orono adopt an ordinance like Wayzata’s that requires screening from <br />public right of ways. He feels that a few people take advantage and do not comply with <br />the ordinance. He stated they have guests coming to their home from around the world <br />and does not appreciate boats being visible from the public right of way. He does not <br />object to boats being stored outside on commercial property.
