• MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />HELD MARCH 15, 1993 <br />ZONING AMENDMENT - CONT. <br />Peterson asked whether it is possible to have minimum standards <br />for existing marinas and different, more stringent standards for <br />new marinas. <br />Jabbour stated the City cannot do that. <br />Brenaman asked that the City tell them the perfect scenario. <br />Jabbour stated he has worked since 1972 on abiding by the perfect <br />standards, which has proved to be a very diluted concept. He noted <br />there is no way additional property would be rezoned to B -2, so <br />they must adopt an ordinance existing B -2 properties can comply <br />with. <br />Gaffron noted that various marinas have tried to comply in good <br />faith, but have found it impossible. <br />Goetten noted the land area of most of the marinas is very limited. <br />a 0 Peterson asked how many existing marinas have pumpout stations, and <br />asked that be addressed in the ordinance. <br />1 <br />Rivers said residential property owners have stated the marinas <br />down grade their properties, and asked the City to establish <br />standards and enforce those so marinas will not be perceived this <br />way. <br />Brenaman stated the licensing procedure used to be simple and <br />effective and felt they should return to that way. <br />Bellows closed the public information portion of the meeting at <br />9:15 P.M. <br />Jabbour introduced Don Germanson, former president of the LMLOA. <br />(#3) #1804 MICHAEL REVIER, <br />2691 ETHEL AVENUE - <br />VARIANCE - PUBLIC HEARING 7:30 - 8:10 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />Gil Landsiedel represented the applicant. <br />5 <br />
