RES/DENTIAL DOCKS <br /> More than 1/3 of the residential lots in Orono abut the lakeshore. With nearly 40 miles of Lake <br /> Minnetonka shoreline, and additional properties abutting Long Lake, Mooney Lake, French Lake, <br /> Dickey's Lake, Lake Katrina, Lake Classen and Lydiard Lake, Orono is home to an abundance of dock <br /> owners. The following rules and regulations govern the placement and use of private residential docks in <br /> Orono: � <br /> • Seasonally installed docks are a permitted accessory use for residential properties which abut the <br /> lakeshore and contain a principal residence structure. <br /> • New seasonal docks require a one-time permit($30.) and may be reinstalled at the same location <br /> annually thereafter without additional permits(Fee Schedule,p. 8). . <br /> • Permanent docks require a Conditional Use Permit(Zoning Code Sec. 78-1113) and may require <br /> additional permits from the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District(LMCD) and the Minnesota <br /> Department of Natural Resources(DNR). <br /> • Rental of residential dock space is not allowed. Such activity is considered to be a commercial <br /> use,which is allowed only in the B-2 Lakeshore Business District(Sections 94-71 thru 94-101). <br /> • Sharing of a single dock by three or more adjacent lakeshore owners is allowed subject to <br /> City Council approval of a Joint Use Dock License(Sections 94-36 thru 94-38). <br /> • Placement of docks on Lake Minnetonka is governed by the Lake Minnetonka Conservation <br /> District(LMCD). Minimum setbacks from the extended property lines are required. Contact the <br /> LMCD for further information (952-745-0789). For other Orono lakes, contact the Building & <br /> Zoning Deparhnent(952-249-4600). Minimum setbacks(similar to those in effect for other types <br /> of accessory structures) will be required, and special permits may be required for docks which <br /> must cross a wetland to reach open water. <br /> Municipal Docks. The City of Orono does not provide municipal docks for private boat storage, and has <br /> no "commons" areas for public dockage. The City does provide a small number of fishing and swimming <br /> docks, typically at locations where roadways were historically platted to the shoreline. Canoe rack rental <br /> spaces are available at Summit Park on Long Lake to Orono residents on a first-come first-served basis. <br /> Orono is home to 5 commercial marinas providing in aggregate a tota.l of more than 450 rental slips. <br /> Additionally, publi� landings on North Arm and Maxwell Bay in Orono provide approximately 150 car- <br /> trailer parking spaces for transient boaters. <br /> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br /> City of Orono-Municipal Offices <br /> Street Address: Mailing Address: <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway www.ci.orono.mn.us P.O.
