4 <br /> FILE#16-3878 <br /> November 21,2016 <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br /> The Long Lake Fire Department has noted a need to store a boat on Lake Minnetonka to <br /> facilitate emergency response. The City Council has suggested an amendment to the ordinance <br /> be considered that would allow the Long Lake Fire Department to use a dock,and store its' boat <br /> there during the overnight hours. To do this,an amendment of the standards are necessary. <br /> The proposed ordinance only proposes elimination of the overnight storage requirement. The <br /> ordinance retains Hennepin County's role in the structure and its'use.This linkage reduces the <br /> likelihood that other docks would be installed throughout the city while sharing taxpayer <br /> resources. Hennepin County would need to support Long Lake Fire Departments request to <br /> store their boat on Hennepin County's dock. <br /> In the review of the site plan,factors such as parking,vehicle visibility,screening(for the boat) <br /> would need to be considered. <br /> Staff requests Planning Commission recommendation of ordinance as drafted. <br />
