MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, April 11, 2011 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />• <br />(6. #11 -3501 YOUR BOAT CLUB, LL C, 1444 SHORELINE DRIVE, Continued) <br />and if Staff is satisfied that the objective requirements are met and adequate parking is available for the <br />site, the CUP should be granted. <br />The applicant has provided updated versions of his letter of introduction and narrative. He also has <br />submitted a variety of exhibits in support of his analysis of the parking situation. They include the <br />following: <br />Appendix A is a newly created parking easement submitted to Staff on April 6 that allows commercial <br />parking on the residential properties at 1440 and 1442 Shoreline. This is being reviewed by the City <br />Attorney. It is likely that he will be recommending a companion document in the form of an agreement <br />between the property owner(s) and the City, to ensure the easement cannot be extinguished without City <br />input or approval. <br />Appendices B, C, and D are a map, air photo and letter from the property owner indicating that Slip #2 <br />mapped on the Brown's Bay dock system does not exist due to unfavorable lake bed conditions, resulting <br />in an actual total slip count of 97 and not 98. <br />Appendices E and F are a letter from tenant Marine Max and an excerpt from their lease that defines six <br />slips which are designated for their sales, display and service use, and which will not be rented out. In the <br />Sailors World boat club CUP, approval in 1995, similar slips not slated for rental use were excluded from <br />the base slip numbers for calculating parking needs, so excluding those six has a precedent. • <br />Appendix G is a sketch of the existing paved parking lot adjacent to the main marina building. The <br />sketch shows that 24 marked parking stalls are available at this lot, which has been confirmed on site by <br />Staff. <br />Appendix H is a surveyor's sketch of a proposed parking layout for the triangle area, indicating that five <br />stalls can be made available for use while allowing adequate room for cars to backup and enable them to <br />enter CR15 moving forward. The intent is to avoid uncontrolled access to CR15. While the layout does <br />not conform to certain of the B -2 district standards established for parking areas as to location, setbacks, <br />etc., this is no different than most of the parking areas located at the site. <br />Based on the new information submitted by the applicant, Staff finds that there are 97 viable slips at the <br />marina, of which six slips are encumbered for use by Marine Max in its sales, display, and service <br />business. These slips will not be rented out, and a precedent has been set for excluding them from the <br />base parking calculation. Furthermore, Marine Max is required to have eight parking stalls available for <br />the sales and service operation, so including these six slips in the base parking calculation would be <br />redundant. <br />Per the provisions of current code Section 78 -668, the updated parking requirements for this site are as <br />follows: <br />Six parking spaces shall be provided for each ten boat slips on water or on land, which equals <br />54.6 stalls. <br />C] <br />Page 6 of 30 <br />
