' MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Monday,August 12,2013 <br /> 7:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (6. #13-3606 L UKE KUJAWA O YOUR BOAT CL UB, 1444 SHORELINE DRIVE— <br /> CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AMENDMENT, Continued) <br /> Gaffron stated in his view the applicant has demonstrated that with management of parking they can make <br /> that conceptual parking work, but in the future, if Staff would like to see some changes to the layout of <br /> the marina, it will require an accurate,to scale document. The question remains that there is nothing that <br /> addresses double parking. What the applicant is doing to manage parking is different from what the code <br /> states, so it becomes something that the Council needs to decide whether that is acceptable on a long-term <br /> basis. Gaffron noted there is no guarantee that that parking management will continue into the future. <br /> Gaffron indicated the City is also back to the discussion that was held a few years ago on whether it <br /> should be a license rather than a conditional use. Gaffron indicated the parking plan is somewhat <br /> addressed by their management plan. <br /> Gaffron noted confirmation was received today from the fire chief that the venting was taken care of, <br /> which was new information. Since the temporary approval is only good until September 15, it will need to <br /> be addressed at some point in the near future. In addition,the property owner status is still in flux and <br /> Staff is not sure whether the applicant will end up owning the other property. Gaffron commented if the <br /> applicant is able to acquire the marina it would open up more opportunities for revising the layout of the <br /> site. <br /> Gaffron indicated the in water slips on the Tanager Bay side is not a critical issue at this time. The <br /> NPDES permit is something Staff was not aware of at the last meeting and,according to the applicant's <br /> own investigation it appears the people at the MPCA do not have a good handle on it at this time. <br /> Gaffron indicated that is probably not critical at this point. <br /> Gaffron stated it comes down to the findings that the Council needs to make on whether to allow <br /> expansion of the use on this site. The City can deal with the house at 1440 Shoreline ultimately and the <br /> police chief has noted there have not been additional incidents. Gaffron stated the parking management <br /> company has helped make this site work. <br /> Anderson noted the marina owner has to apply for the NPDES permit and it applies to when they are <br /> selling gas. <br /> Gaffron indicated that is the information that the applicant has provided and that he is taking it at face <br /> value at this point. <br /> McMillan asked whether the applicarit would like his application tabled or denied at this time. <br /> Kujawa indicated he would prefer the application be approved but if that is not the case, he would prefer <br /> • the application be tabled. Kujawa noted the house does not have anything to do with the conditional use <br /> permit and that they do own it now. What happens with the residential property depends on whether they <br /> are able to purchase the marina. Kujawa noted the three things that were listed regarding the parking and <br /> the access and the disturbance is what the conditional use permit boils down to. <br /> McMillan stated the fuel tank situation also needs to be addressed. <br /> Kujawa asked how that applies to the application and the number of boats that are allowed. <br /> Page 19 of 37 <br />
