Resolution No. /G�9 ,- - <br /> ' Page 52 � <br /> � � <br /> Isberg studied the entire Stubbs Bay Area and then prepared <br /> a specific report on "Analysis of the Stubbs Eay Tjarina <br /> �Johnson) Proposal". From the planning aspect Isberg identified <br /> four alternative uses available for the Niarina property: � <br /> a) Leave site zoned for B-2 Lakeshore Business, strictly <br /> apply the existing performance standards to the various <br /> Marina development 'proposals , and� issue permits for - <br /> continued commercial marina use. <br /> b) �reate an additional "Neighborhood" Lakeshore Business <br /> District and rezone the Marina property to this District. � <br /> This would recognize commercial marina uses but would be <br /> . designed to cater to neighborhood marina needs (fueling, � � <br /> launching, etc. ) rather than an emphasis on slip renta 1. <br /> . This district would establish strict performance standards <br /> to protect abutting residential property owners better than � <br /> the B-2 standards . <br /> c) Rezone the site for LR-lA One Family Lakeshore Residential <br /> � development consistent with all surrounding properties . This <br /> would correct a "mistake" of the 1974 plan in designating <br /> a commercial zone outside of the urban area. <br /> d) Acquire the site for a park either as a municipally <br /> operated marina or as some other forxi ot lakeshore <br /> recreational site. This alternative would not necessarily <br /> decrease, and could increase, traffic and other activity <br /> - on the site. - <br /> . , , <br /> Isberg went on to choose among the above alternatives and <br /> to make a firm reco�mnendation to the Council, as follows : <br /> Recommendation - 'I'he following recommendation is based upon <br /> a technical planning perspec�ive and is based upon the <br /> s previous analysis which deals with future planning and <br /> development of the City of Orono. Every effort �has been <br /> made to consider alternative uses for the site which could <br /> be in conformance with the existing and proposed planning <br /> and development policies for the �ity, while at the same • <br /> time be compatible with the Stubbs Bay Area and neighborhood. . <br /> Because of the location of the site and the characteristics - <br /> � of the area and the site, the number of practical alternatives <br /> are very limited. . <br /> . <br />
