Outdoor lower level deck licensed for food and beverage service will be open to the general public all operating hours, upon approval of the Excelsior City Council. 8. A dock atte idant on duty to monitor the proper dock use as needed. The committee has recommended appx'oval of 1) the Excelsior Bay Yacht Club variance.the hardship being the 90 degree shoreline angle limiting the east end dock use area; 2) special density and new dock license as applied for, with the change of ten - 13’ X 32’ slips to 12’ x 24’ slips: 3) with the expanded amenities and lighting to have a minimum impact on the lake. Grathwol moved, Foster sei:onded, to approve the committee recommendation for the new dock and special density license and variance for the Excelsior Bay Yacht Club along with the amenities as presented, authorising preparation of the Order. Rascop noted the approval by the committee was on a split vote. In his opinion the new dock plan represents a conversion from transient to private use. He complimented the amenities. Cochran added that the transient docks now only serve members since the business changed from a public restaurant to a private club. By making space available to charter boats the applicant is meeting an LMCD ob.iective of making the lake available to the public. , j • 4.The Board discussed the amenities. An inspection indicates the docks will be made handicapped accessible by an adjustment in the ramp. in response to a question from Slocum as to what would happen if only five slips were used for charter boats, Gus Khwice, Manager of the Club, said they will make every effort to rent all 10 charter boat slips. Any empty spaces would be rented for over night storage. Rascop asked for the actual number of charter boat rentals as he can see no incentive for accommodating charter boats unless there is .a firm number. Lewman moved, Grathwol seconded, to amend the motion for approval to state a minimum of four slips are to be retained tor charter boat use. Motion carried. Reuse, Rascop. Boswinkel and Foster voting nay. _The motion to approve, as amended, was carried with Rascop voting nay.
