RE�ULAR MEETING OF THE ORONQ COUNCIL, JUNE 15, 1978 Page 41 ' Mr. Alan Olson, City Planner, reviewed the Marina STUBB'S BAY MARINA Committee minutes of April 18, 1978, concerning LICENSE the Stubb' s Bay riarina, which state: James McCleary was present. Previous Licenses: Always issued for sixty-six 66 slips. Current Application: 1978 applications to the City and LMCD show sixty-six (66) waterward slips. A variety of options have been presented to attain the 66 slips. Included are dredging proposals and two separate rezoning proposals. Council has indicated preference for on-lan,d dry storage in lieu of general harbor dredging or rezoning. Corunittee Comments: Mr. McCleary presented his arguments for maintaining sixty-six (66) water- ward slips saying that dry stacking was an unacceptable alternative. He intends to operate on the existing dock layout and dock structures until the dredging issue is resolved. The Comr.iittee reviewed four alternative choices as follows: l. Permitting only those slips as naturally . available within the permitted dock use area, no dredging to be permitted. 2. Permitting general harbor dredging to attain the full sixty-six s�ips within the authorized dock use area. 3. Permitting dredging of a channel to the launching ramp only, permitting the naturally available waterward slips, and permitting the remainder of the sixty-six authorized slips to be dry stacked on land. 4. Consider a proposed rezoning of adjacent residential property to B2 thereby expanding the existing dock use area to allow the full sixty-six water ward slips with no dredging required. At this point, the relative merits of all four options were discussed. The general consensus o was that general harbor dredging and rezoning were both unacceptable solutions. The discussion of the determination of the dock use area led to a suggestion that Mr. McCleary investigate the down zoning of some commercial property to residential. The net result being a possible . redefinition of the dock use area in such a way as to allow more waterward slips without the necessity of general harbor dredging. (Continued)
