Councilmember Hurr indicated <br />that if this is the case, their application and license should reflect that fact I had not had a <br />charKC to thoroughly research the issue, but after a brief lix>k at the code during the meeting 1 <br />did note that a "day use recreation area" conditional use permit might be required. <br />Having now had a chance to research these issues. I would note the following: <br />1. In the Joint Use Dock License ordinance (Section 5.42), transient slips are defined as <br />those "on land or w ater used for the temporary storage of many different boats lor short <br />periods of timePermanent slips are defined as lliose "on land or water used tor the <br />storing of a given boat on a long term or yearly basis". <br />The license application requests numbers of "transient (day use only) slips" and <br />"permanent moorage slips". The "day use only" qualitier is a misnomer. Although this <br />wording has appeared on the license application since the I970’s, it is consistent neither <br />with the license code definitions nor with past City pitlicy. A slip used tor occasional <br />overnight camping but which is not for season-long use of an individual specitic boat, <br />is a transient slip by definition. Therefore, the application was filled out correctly. <br />The City has historically charged a $2 annual “slip fee" for permanent slips, no fee for <br />transient slips.
