This application was reviewed as Zoning File #06-3186. <br />2. The property is located in the LR -1A Single Family Lakeshore Residential zoning <br />district and has approximately 427 feet of frontage on Lake Minnetonka. <br />3. Permanent docks are allowed by Conditional Use Permit in the floodway and flood <br />fringe of Lake Minnetonka per the provisions of Orono Municipal Code Section 78- <br />1116(a) Subsection (8). <br />4. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on April 17, 2006, and <br />recommended approval of a conditional use permit for construction of a permanent <br />dock by a vote of 6-0, based on the following findings: <br />a) The proposed permanent dock is located in Lake Minnetonka and is under the <br />jurisdiction of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD) and is <br />subject to the LMCD permitting process. <br />b) Wave and ice action will be minimal so the stability of the dock will be at <br />minimal risk. <br />c) The proposed permanent dock will be located to meet LMCD setback, <br />location and length standards and is not anticipated to result in conflicts with <br />adjoining docks nor pose any navigation hazards. <br />5. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow a permanent <br />dock will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or materially <br />injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity and that the proposed level of <br />use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning <br />Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br />6.
