MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 27, 1997 ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT • ( #4) #2195 GENMAR INDUSTRIES, 1449 SHORELINE DRIVE - COMMERCIAL SITE PLANNARIANCES - RESOLUTION #3835 The Applicant was represented by Mary McConnell and Jeffery Melby. Gaffron reported that the application was for a commercial site plan review and variances to the lake side, street setbacks, hardcover, and structure within the 75' setback. Issues involve boat storage, lot area, and lot depth, number of parking stalls and location, tree removal in the 0 -75, and CUP and variances for land alteration over 100 cubic yards for stormwater ponding and parking lot expansion. The proposal calls for replacement of the existing 30'x80', 2 -story, building located 20' from the lakeside with a 24'x48', 1 -story, building. The smaller pond on the property was built in 1989 and would require expansion. A new use under this proposal is for boat storage. Toilet facilities would be located in the building on the east side for the slip customers. The proposal was tabled at the November Planning Commission Meeting to allow for revisions made to the plans. The Planning Commission recommended approval with conditions at their recent January meeting. Gaffron indicated that the new building would be located in the same area as the existing building. The floor plan includes office space and toilet facilities with access from the outside. An issue for consideration is the storage of boats in the yard. It is the intent of • Kings Cove of Hastings to lease the property acting as site manager to accommodate sales of boats. Green space will be used to display up to 6 boats and 12 lake slips for display and demonstration. The new building will still be partially located in the 0 -75' setback and 47' from the lakeside. Street setback is 30'. The existing building is located 12' from the street, and the new building is proposed at 17'. The new building will meet the required 10' side setback. Gaffron noted that boat storage is not allowed in the 0 -75' according to the code. Gaffron reviewed the parking code for operations and slip usage. There are currently 68 parking stalls for the 111 slips on the Tanager Lake side and in Brown's Bay. Required is 6 parking stalls per 10 slips. Eight stalls are needed for sales and three parking stalls for the employees for a total of 78 stalls. The code does not differentiate between slips in the water for customers with slips or display slips. The Applicant does not see the need for additional parking stalls. The Planning Commission did not agree with the applicant. 0 2
