, __�� Request for Council Action continued Page 4 of 5 � June 17, 1998 Proposed Joint Use Dock Relocation Joint Use Dock Ordinance Municipal Code Section 5.42 gives minimal standards for joint use docks. However,that section does state that "any association of riparian and/or non-riparian land owners within a subdivision adjacent to the lake which initiates a new joint use shall adhere to LMCD regulations and no such use shall have more than one boat slip per 50'of shoreline as measured by a straight line between the points at which the side lot lines meet the OHWL. Further, a11 such use shall adhere to the Shoreland Management Regulations of Section 10.56." The proposed use appears to meet the one slip per 50' of shoreline standard, since as measured on a straight line Lots 1 and 2 contain 220'of width,which would allow up to four boats. Further,the proposed use appeazs to meet the standard which disallows any use which creates the need for additional parking on any street right-of-way or additional parking stalls. Since the proposed four slips will be used by four adjacent land owners with pre-existing parking areas,there appears to be no impact on streets or right-of-ways. Further, there appears to be no need for additional hard surface areas. The proposed docks would appear to be located in one of the widest portions of the lagoon,hence no boat traffic problems aze anticipated. . Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the application of the Kelly Cove Homeowner's Association to allow conversion of a six unit joint use dock to a four unit joint use dock, subject to dock design and location as proposed, and subject to ultimate legal combination of Outlot A and Lot 3 of Navarre Cove by the owner of Lot 3; and that the easements over Lot 3 and Navarre Cove Outlot A in favor of Lots 1 and 2 Kelly Cove be extinguished. _ Public Hearing Option The joint use dock license standards allow Council to call a public hearing at Council's discretion. This application was received on June 12,and is brought forward for Council's initial review without a resolution,pending Council action. One of Council's options would be to call for a public hearing if there is some perceived negative impact to the City or to other users of the lagoon. Such a hearing could be published for the July 13th Council meeting.
