Gayles Marina has been licensed for 134 slips <br /> since 1967 . <br /> • 2 . Al1 the landscaping, screening, and otr.er im- <br /> provements agreed to by Gayle Wittig for Gayles <br /> Marina have not yet been completed according to <br /> the terms of the 1975 Operations Agreement. <br /> 3. Gayles Marina has more licensed slips than any <br /> other �marina in the Ci�y. <br /> 4 . Gayles Marina has more boats stored on land than <br /> any other marina in the City. <br /> 5. The LMCD and DNR have classified Maxwell Bay as <br /> "Critical" in terms of boat density, crowded waters , <br /> - number of boats stored and boats in use. <br /> 6 . Section 73. 060 of the Orono P�unicipal Code provides <br /> that regulation of the number of licensed slips is <br /> in the public interest to protect against the in- <br /> creasing problems caused by expanding commercial <br /> lake usage. <br /> 7 . Increasing the number of licensed slips beyond 134 <br /> would be contrar� to the policy established in <br /> Resolution No. 177 regarding dock licenses issued <br /> after 1967 and to the policy established in Resalution <br /> No. 938 regarding refusal to incr_ease boat density <br /> at any commercial marina on Lake Minnetc�nka. <br /> • <br />
