Marina Licensing June 11, 1993 Page 2 B. Current Problems and Magnitude. In determining the current purpose and extent of marina regulation, the City needs to determine what the current problems are and what the magnitude of these problems is. For example, outside of the few ongoing complaints from specific residents, does the general public perceive that the marinas are "out of control"? What very specific factors lead to this perception if it exists? What specific changes do residents want the City to pursue? Staff s perception of the problems is as follows: 1. Traffic control. 2. Aesthetics. 3. Passive environmental control (factors related to the physical makeup of the site) 4. Active environmental control (factors related to use of the site, such as boat density, noise, and site operation). These problems do not require detailed regulation of the marinas but they do require some level of overall control of the marina operations. This level of control can oe achieved with the "envelope" approach along with some additional general regulations in the areas of parking and environmental issues such as surface water management. Proposed Licensing Ordinance Attached is the draft Licensing Ordinance that was presented to Council in December. This ordinance reflects the recommendations of the Lake Use Committee last fall. The proposed ordinance separates the Joint Use Licenses from the Marina ^iness Licenses. The Joint Use Section more clearly defmes what is and isn't consider^ a joint use. and sets tninitniim standards for joint uses regarding number/density of boats, joint uses in the RS (island) Zoning District, and parking. The Marina Business License becomes a new section, 5.43. This section includes definitions of business uses, and includes a short list of business use standards including: 1. Adherence to the B-2 Zoning District requirement. 2. An insurance requirement, 3. License holder notifies City of all other businesses happening on the property 4. Limits business use license to the B-2 Zone. ■1 • \ I k 4 4 w J
