ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MONDAY, APRIL 9, 2001 <br />Public Comments — Continued • <br />in Orono, not just new residents. He felt the residents who did not respect the City <br />ordinances should be prodded by the City, and then ticketed. He requested the Council <br />endorse work to raise awareness of existing ordinances. Mr. Line mentioned that he felt <br />boats should be kept out of view from neighbors. <br />Sansevere stated that he felt Council should review the boat storage ordinance, but he <br />would favor more leniency in the ordinance. <br />Mr. Line stated that he did not like seeing yachts parked in people's front yards and felt <br />that he and his wife Lorie were forced to act as the "ordinance police" each time they <br />complained. He stated that people who spent money to improve their property, and <br />therefore came to the City for permits, were being forced to jump through hoops, but <br />others, who did not invest in their property, were allowed to keep their property in a poor, <br />or unrespectable, condition without interference. <br />Sansevere stated he agreed with Mr. Line regarding certain issues, but he did not have a <br />problem with people parking their boats in their yards. Mayor Peterson stated that if <br />people were forced to store their boats off their property, it could become cost - prohibitive <br />for some people to own boats. <br />White suggested that Mr. Line meet with staff, and reminded Mr. Line that his neighbors • <br />had approved of the variances he requested when building his house. <br />ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT <br />*5. #2644 Gary and Joan Marquardt, 2617 Casco Point Road— Variances- <br />Resolution No. 4641 <br />Sansevere moved, and Nygard seconded, to adopt Resolution No. 4641 granting <br />variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivision 2 and Section 10.56, <br />Subdivision 16(L)(2) to permit 3,710 s.f.
