(.l�.l T �r vK��v� � b�IL4(SU7"IU U6/L1/y6 10:.�9 � :07/10 N0:193 <br /> The partiea do not make it cle�.r whether res�pondents are <br /> eeeking a declaration that the ordinance permits the shared dock <br /> propoeal, or whether they aeek a vaxiance from the ordinance as the <br /> ordinance does not permit such a uee . There is , at leaet <br /> initially, an ordinance intezpzetation question . <br /> The Orono City Code define� "accessory use or struc�ure" as a <br /> ��use or structure aubordinate to and serving the principal usa or <br /> strvcture on the same lot and customa�il� incici�,: :�1 thereto. " <br /> Orono, Minn. , § 10 . 02 (1) (1984) . The code alao �lefines "use- <br /> acceesory" as a "use subordinate to the principal use on a lot and <br /> excluaively used for purposes incidental to those of the principal <br /> use. " �, � 10 • �2 ��2� • The code provides tha� : "No accessory <br /> building or 6tructure shall be constructed on any lot prior to the <br /> time of construction of the principal building to which i� ie <br /> accessory. " �, § 1o . 03 , subd. 9 (A) . The code �ndicates that a <br /> dock ie an acceasory use under Bection 10 . 23 , subd. 5 (A) , which <br /> lists " [a) ny acces9ory use as regulated in the ' R-1R District and <br /> �private docks ' sub�ecL Lo the City Cod� and other applicable <br /> regulations inclUding boat storage density reguiation9" as a <br /> ��permitted accessory use . " <br /> Conetruing these provisions toaether, we conclude: tl) a dock <br /> ia an accesBory use, and (2) the definition of the acceesory use <br /> and the prohibition againat building an acceseo�-y use before a <br /> principal use indicate that the code presumes there has to be a <br /> primary etructure on the property in order for an accessory <br /> • structure to be permitted. • � <br /> � -6- . <br />
