Approval of such a multiple use <br /> • dock will be subject to Chapter 74 of the Orono <br /> Municipal Code including the annual licensing <br /> � provisions therein, as well as any conditions <br /> imposed as part of the subdivision proceedings. <br /> � Copies of the proposal have been sent to the City <br /> Engineer, the LMCD, and the DNR for their comments. <br /> � <br /> Planning Commission Meeting - May 16 , 1977 <br /> � <br /> • Presented proposal for a dock and walkway <br /> extending from the center of the subdivision to <br /> � the channel, then along the side of the channel <br /> to a dock and slip area in the main lake. The <br /> � Planning Commission was not in favor_of the <br /> entire walkway extending along side the channel <br /> • which they thought would lead to docking and <br /> • channel congestion. They did agree with the <br /> applicant that it would be acceptable to have <br /> � no more than 50 feet of loading dock on the <br /> channel if the remainder of the walkway was <br /> � setback at least 10 feet from the channel edge. <br /> � The Planning Commission recommended approval of <br /> .hat concept with 6 slips on the lake (to become <br /> � 7 slips if the outlot is ever combined with the <br /> � exception lot) subject to Orono joint use dock <br /> licensing regulations and other agency approval. <br /> � Expressly noted that the loading area is not for <br /> permanent mooring, that there is no determination <br /> � of the channel navigability and that location of <br /> the loading area is for the applicant' s convenience <br /> � only,without granting any permanent right of <br /> • access (dredging) to the loading area. Also <br /> recommended granting a variance to our Wetlands <br /> � Ordinance for the construction of the dock. <br /> � - <br /> . Council P�Ieeting - May 23, 1977 <br /> ` Mr. John Hacking, representing the Victoria Grain <br /> Company, asked for Council approval of the proposal. <br /> � Mr. John Sjostrom challenged the legality of_ the <br /> channel as it exists today stating that it was <br /> • originally dredged without a permit. <br /> � Welsh moved, Mayor Van Nest seconded, to allow the <br /> . dock to be constructed from the center of the <br /> � outlot to the channel and a T for a loading plat- <br /> form and a 10 ' setback from channel edge.
