MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, May 20, 2013 <br />6:30 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br />  <br />Page 9 of 25  <br />  <br /> <br />Curtis indicated they have not but there might have been a couple of issues on a busy day where the <br />police department may have tagged someone for parking illegally. <br /> <br />Thiesse asked if the parking discussed by Staff concerns both the marina and boat club combined. <br /> <br />Curtis stated it is combined parking. <br /> <br />Thiesse asked if it was determined whether there was a greater density as it concerns boat clubs. <br /> <br />Curtis indicated there was no change to the code regarding density for boat clubs. <br /> <br />Landgraver asked what the required number of stalls is. <br /> <br />Curtis indicated it is seventy. <br /> <br />Landgraver asked if there are currently 81 parking stalls available. <br /> <br />Curtis indicated that is correct. <br /> <br />Landgraver noted for 20 boats, it was felt 70 was the right number, and to increase to 30, seventy stalls <br />are still felt to be adequate. <br /> <br />Curtis indicated 81 stalls are available. The boats on site are not increasing but the boats used for the boat <br />club are increasing. Curtis stated there will be no more slips than before. Additionally, the retail user is <br />using a greater number of slips for display boat/demo boat purposes but there will be no additional boats <br />on site. <br /> <br />Bennett asked whether the change in what the slips are used for would put more pressure on where the <br />permanent fuel tank will be located. <br /> <br />Curtis stated the location of the permanent fuel tank is an issue that will need to be resolved with the fire <br />marshal, and once that happens, a change in the parking stalls may need to occur. Staff will be <br />monitoring the situation to see if any changes are required. <br /> <br />Lemke asked if the Planning Commission is just addressing the use of the slips. <br /> <br />Curtis indicated they are marina slips currently and they are proposing to change them to boat club slips. <br /> <br />Bennett asked what the difference between a boat club and a marina is. <br />Curtis indicated a marina boat may have one or two owners who will spend less time on the lake in their <br />boat. A boat club boat would have repeated users throughout the day. <br /> <br />Bennett asked if there are different users for the same boat in the club. <br /> <br />Luke Kujawa, Applicant, stated boat clubs have been around for a long time and basically it is a shared <br />boating situation. A lot of people refer to it as boat rental, which is a permitted use in the City’s code. <br />Item #01 - PC Agenda - 06/17/2013 <br />Approval of Planning Commission Minutes 05/20/2013 <br />[Page 9 of 25]
