MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON DECEMBER 11,1995 <br />(#12 - #2085 DNR - Continued) <br />Regarding the problem with people using the docks of the nei^l'uoring properties, Linnell <br />said this is an ongoing problem with people parking at North Arm and fishing off of these <br />docks. He informed the neighbor that he is unable to put signs on the neighbor's property <br />but will develop a sign to educate people on where they can fish. It is possible that an <br />additional panel can be added to the kiosk for education, announcements, boat use, etc. <br />Linnell said the neighbor was willing to work with the City and the DNR to rectify this <br />problem. Goetten suggested adding such a sign at North Arm too. Jabbour commented <br />that if there were enough fishing piers, there would not be this problem. Linnell said he <br />hoped that people would discover they can fish at the access. <br />Littnell reported that the access at North Arm is under the jurisdiction of the County. <br />The DNR is working with the County on runoff correction as well as erosion problems. <br />Linnell noted that additional green areas are needed at North Arm as well as a turf island. <br />Linnell said a future possibility would be to remove 4-6 car/trailer parking spaces to <br />allow for improved shore fishing. <br />Callahan asked if the access would be fenced. Linell said this was not in the plans. There <br />will be curb and gutter on the south side by the highway. The lake side would use traffic <br />control boulders. <br />Callahan asked about the citizen's concern with the intersection of Tonkawa and CoRd <br />51 and moving traffic to the right. He asked about the area by Lord Fletcher’s and traffic <br />moving to the left. Killeen said there was enough room to have the bypass improved and <br />is working with the County on this. Linnell said the DNR has completed the initial <br />survey for the County to provide knowledge of the right-of-way for traffic control <br />planning. The DNR and County have looked at the turn lane into Tonkawa. <br />Jabbour asked if there will be a minor berm between the access and CoRd 51. Killeen <br />said it would be a depression with a raised up area at the comer. <br />Regarding policing, Linnell said a conservation officer would be patroling the area. He <br />noted that the County Sheriff’s Office and local Police Department's also have <br />jurisdiction. Linnell said he has committed to providing a parking space dedicated for <br />police parking. <br />Jabbour asked about the sale of the Straley property. Linnell said that two appraisals <br />have been done but have not come up with a reasonable market value as of yet. When <br />that is done, the property will be offered to the City and others in the proper order. <br />Jabbour asked that the City be notified if others express interest in the property.
