In summary, Sec. 2.02 provides for: <br /> • The General Rule is one restricted watercraft for each 50' (1:50') of continuous <br /> shoreline; without reference to the owners of the watercraft being residents of the <br /> site (Subd.1); or <br /> • Unless a greater number is allowed by the 1 :50' General Rule, up to two restricted <br /> watercraft may be moored or docked at a dock or mooring facility on a residential <br /> site in existence on August 30, 1978; without regard to the owners of the watercraft <br /> being residents of the site (Subd 2); or <br /> • If the 1:50' General Rule cannot be met, up to four restricted watercraft may be <br /> moored or docked at a site, provided a number of conditions are followed. One of <br /> these conditions includes all restricted watercraft must be owned and registered to <br /> the residents who live in the one, single-family residential structure on the site (Subd <br /> 3; a-c); or <br /> • Docks and mooring areas lawfully in existence on 5/3/78 may continue provided the <br /> number of restricted watercraft does not exceed the number moored or docked on <br /> 5/3/78. Restrictions apply, one of which is to secure a non-conforming use permit. <br /> In order to store five or more restricted watercraft, a multiple dock license would need to be <br /> approved by the LMCD Board of Directors (Code Section 2.03), based on a minimum of 226' <br /> of shoreline. <br /> Residents should check with their city for any additional storage restrictions. <br /> The LMCD is requesting your prompt attention and cooperation in this matter. Repeat <br /> inspections are scheduled for the 2013 boating season and beyond, in which ongoing <br /> violations may result in legal consequences. I welcome your call so that we may assist you in <br /> assessing your boat storage needs. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Emily Herman <br /> Administrative Assistant/Code Enforcement <br /> Enclosures: LMCD Code Excerpts <br /> Cc: City of «City» LMCD Board Representative <br /> City of «City» Representative <br />
