With 7.5 dry acres, at the <br />standard of 20 users per acre the site would be limited to 150 users at one time. Representatives <br />of the Power Squadron indicate that as many as 200 to 300 users are not uncommon at the site <br />on holiday weekends and more users have occupied the site during special events. <br />Planning Commission recommended that Power Squadron be granted a variance to allow up to <br />500 users under this conditional use permit, and any special events for which more than 5 <br />users are anticipated shall be subject to prior approval of the City Council. It is Planning <br />Commission’s intent that requests for approval of such events not be considered as amendments <br />to the CUP nor be referred to Planning Commission, but be merely a Council review and <br />approval process. <br />Please review the findings and conditions contained in the attached CUP/variance resolution. <br />A resolution for approval of the 1994 Joint Use Dock License is also attached.
