MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> August 20,2001 <br /> (Boat Storage,Continued) <br /> Hawn stated under the ordinance boats will not be allowed to be stored in the lakeshore yard. Hawn <br /> stated she does not have a problem if boats are stored on the lakeshore side of the property, but would <br /> not want boats to be stored in the 0-75 foot area. <br /> Smith stated that is a reasonable requirement in her view. <br /> Lyle Rahn commented there are probably 1,000 fishing boats pulled up on people's yards year-round. <br /> Hawn inquired whether boats could be stored in the 0-75 foot area. <br /> Smith commented it is traffic in and out of the 0-75 foot area,which results in wear and tear of the <br /> lakeshore. <br /> It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to not incorporate into the ordinance any language <br /> prohibiting boat storage within the 0-75 foot area. <br /> Hawn inquired whether the Planning Commission is in favor of allowing boats to be stored on the <br /> lakeshore side of lakeshore lots. <br /> It was the consensus of the Planning Commission that it is acceptable to store boats on the lakeshore <br /> side of lakeshore lots. <br /> Mabusth recommended Staff develop criteria for a conflict resolution board to deal with complaints <br /> regarding boat storage. <br /> Hawn noted the names of people who file complaints with the City are currently anonymous. Hawn <br /> stated should it go to a conflict resolution board,the name would become public. <br /> Lyle Rahn stated the City should not listen to complaints of people who are simply driving by and see <br /> something they do not like. Rahn stated other cities require that the person filing the complaint has to <br /> pass by that lot or it is not a legitimate complaint. <br /> Lindquist recommended Staff review that and put together some suggested guidelines. <br /> Hawn inquired whether the redrafted ordinance would come back before the Planning Commission. <br /> Gaffron stated he would like the Planning Commission to review and approve it prior to City Council <br /> approving it. Gaffron stated he could e-mail it or fax the redrafted ordinance to the commissioners for <br /> their review and comment. <br /> It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to have Staff e-mail or fax the redrafted ordinance to <br /> them. <br /> Hawn noted the redrafted ordinance would be available to the public for their review. <br /> Gaffron inquired when this item should appear before the Council. <br /> PAGE 27 <br />
