MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON MARCH 9, 1998 ( 911 - #2341 Daniel J. Anderson - Continued) is Daniel Anderson indicated to the Council that if the property is walked, they would note that the land teepees up to where the existing residence is located. He said he reviewed the topography with the Watershed District and asked for their opinion. From the preliminary discussions, Anderson felt it would be somewhat of no use to have a pond. He noted that the foliage by the lakeshore catches runoff from entering the lake. Jabbour asked Anderson how he has addressed street runoff Anderson said a concrete gutter will border the road with catch basins. The water will then run under Old Crystal Bay Road to the swamp. Jabbour said the intent of the City is not to divert water across Old Crystal Bay Road but keep runoff on the property. Gaffron noted that the City has the authority to require stormwater ponding. Jabbour reiterated his disfavor with cash contributions to the Watershed. Anderson said his plans were made from feedback received from his engineers. All Council members agreed on the need for stormwater management on the property. Jabbour informed Anderson that he will need to develop stormwater management plans. Goetten inquired of the lot sizes. Anderson said the lots are a minimum of 2 acres, some are larger. Goetten asked for clarification on what the property included. Jabbour noted that misinformation was given to Mr. Dayton regarding neighbors who are • landlocked and want dock privileges. Jabbour said these properties can have two boats but be licensed to anyone. He would like Mr. Dayton to be informed of this information. The substantial vegetation of the lagoon was noted. It was emphasized that this vegetation cannot be harvested. Gaffron responded that while the LMCD may feel one way about docks, City code says that dock space cannot be provided to anyone but the occupant of the property except in the B2 zoning. Gaffron said he would argue that the City has in place through the code the right to limit dockage. Anderson asked if a dock can be part of a homeowners association. Gaffron said that would require a joint use license, which does not allow dockage for lots that do not abut the lake. Kelley asked if an association dock can be done through a PRD. Gaffron said under the Shoreland Ordinance, the amount of shoreline would determine the docks. The shoreline amount would be divided by 200' to determine what number of docks would be allowed. He noted that this has only been done at Landmark Drive. 0 18
