MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, March 10, 2008 <br />7:00 o’clock p.m. <br />__________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />(LMCD REPORT, Continued) <br /> <br />Rahn suggested the LMCD consider, as a possible fundraiser, implementing a five or ten dollar fee for <br />people to launch their boats on Lake Minnetonka. <br /> <br />McDermott commented the LMCD could also sell a season pass to allow people to launch their boats. <br />He also indicated the State has had a philosophy in opposition to charging a fee at public boat <br />launches. <br /> <br />David Runkle, 2684 Casco Point Road, noted two weeks ago he distributed a copy of the milfoil plan <br />to the Council Members and that there are two hurdles that need to be overcome before this plan can <br />be implemented. One of the hurdles is that the DNR requires 50 percent of the affected lakeshore <br />homeowners to sign off on the plan. Runkle noted on Carmen’s Bay, the City owns four or five <br />parcels, and recommended the City Council consider drafting and adopting a resolution in favor of the <br />program. <br /> <br />White stated the requirement of the 50 percent of the homeowners was incorporated in an effort to <br />avoid anyone suggesting that the minority of the landowners could dictate what needed to be done. <br />White indicated he would be in favor of a resolution in support of the plan, and suggested that this <br />item be discussed at the Council’s next work session. <br /> <br />ZONING ADMINISTRATOR’S REPORT <br /> <br />*6. #07-3330 DENNIS AND AMANDA WALSH, 1354 REST POINT CIRCLE – <br />CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT – RESOLUTION NO. 5731 <br /> <br />Bremer moved, Murphy seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 5731, a Resolution Granting <br />Variances for the Property Located at 1354 Rest Point Circle.
