� . , , <br /> � REGULAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, JULY 25, 1977 Page 15 <br /> � 3. If dredging and riprap plans cannot be implemented, NORTH STAR MARINA <br /> we are uncertain how to proceed. It would seem (Continued) <br /> � that in order to meet Orono and LMCD requirements, <br /> • the entire character of our business might have <br /> to be altered. It is uncertain what changes <br /> � and improvements the economics of these changes _ <br /> might permit. <br /> • <br /> For your information� the following is a schedule of <br /> � the most practical times of year to accomplish the <br /> projects under consideration: <br /> � <br /> � May 1 to Oct. 1 Dredging & riprap <br /> Oct. 1 to Nov. 15 Remove existing dock structures <br /> � Jan. 1 to March 1 Install new dock structure <br /> June 1 to Sept. 1 Building structures on la�d <br /> � July 1 to Sept. 1 Blacktopping <br /> Summer months Fencing <br /> � Summer months Curbing <br /> • Spring Landscaping <br /> � To summarize, the entire development plan hinges on <br /> the dredging and riprap plan already submitted. Only <br /> � with this and a favorable working relationship with <br /> Orono can we continue to develop the plan as out- <br /> � lined above. Without the ability to dredge and <br /> riprap this year, any plans will be delayed at least <br /> � one year, during which time our total comprehensive <br /> � improvement plan may change dramatically or be <br /> dropped completely in favor of continuing our operation <br /> � as it has been historically. <br /> � End of letter <br /> � Council tdeeting - July 25, 1977 <br /> � Mayor Van Nest stated that he assumed that North <br /> � Star Marina would submit an overall plan to the <br /> City. <br /> � Paul Iiempf replied that they do not have a dock <br /> � structure plan. This will take time, we want to <br /> work out all the details. <br /> � <br /> • Councilmember Butler asked why he could not take <br /> the docks out first and then dredge. Mr. Kempf <br /> � replied that he needs four feet of water to take <br /> the spoils by barge to Excelsior and if the water <br /> � drops another 4-6 inches, the barge will have <br /> problems navigating. We do want to proceed with <br /> � the dredging and riprapping. We have permits from <br /> the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and the <br /> � Department of Natural Resources. <br /> �Mayor Van Nest: Orono needs a total plan to <br /> � determine what is going to happen.
