NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono, Minnesota: FINDINGS 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #11-3501. 2. The commercial property is located in the B-2 Lakeshore Business District and comprises approximately 0.66 acres in area. Additionally, the portion of the residential property located east of Shoreline Drive is used for marina purposes and is zoned B-2, comprising an additional approximately 0.10 acres. The total area zoned B-2 and used for marina purposes is approximately 0.76 acres. Page 1 of 8 � �°� 0 0 C ITY of ORONO � � ti RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL ��l ��'~ 6031 �kESI3�4 NO. 3. The portion of the residential property west of Shoreline Drive is zoned LR-lA Lakeshore Residential District comprising approximately 0.37 acres in area, of which approximately 50' x 110' or 0.13 acre has been historically used for marina parking. 4. On March 21, 2011 the Orono Planning Commission reviewed the application as proposed and voted 4-1 to recommend denial of the application based on the lack of sufficient information to guarantee the number of parking stalls available to serve the marina and boat club uses, but to change that recommendation to one of approval if the applicant submits further evidence to staff to demonstrate that the combined use of the marina and boat club will comply with the parking regulations of Section 78- 668 and staff finds that the objective requirements of that section are met and adequate parking is available at the site. 5. The City Council makes the following findings of fact regarding this application: a. Resolution No. 2674 adopted by the City Council on August 14, 1989 documented the availability of 73 total parking stalls on the commercial and residential properties falling 4 stalls short of the 77 stalls determined to be required by code for the marina use at that time under the approved site plan, and a 4-stall variance was granted. b. The zoning code does not currently establish an incremental parking requirement for the boat club conditional use. c. Council finds that operation of a boat club use does not require additional parking over and above the level required for marina use if the boat club is operated in an appropriate manner. d. Changes in the marina operation at this site since 1989 have resulted in fewer boat slips on the water, with the current number of required parking stalls being calculated as follows: Total slips on water: 97 Total slips devoted to retail sales/display/service operation: 6 Net available rental slips: 91 slips x 0.6 stalls required per slip = 54.6 stalls Additional stalls required for sales/service operation: 8 stalls Additional stalls required for area of building > 1000 s.£: 3 stalls Additional stalls required for employee parking: 4 stalls (nominal) Total stalls required per current code= 54.6+8.0+3.0+4.0=69.6=70 stalls Page 2 of 8 � �°� 0 0 C ITY of 4RON0 � � ti RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL ��l ��'~ `�x'EsKo4 No. 6 0 3 7 e. The number of available parking stalls is as follows: Tanager Lake side of CR15: 24 paved, marked stalls at 1444 Shoreline 26 unmarked gravel stalls at 1440-42 Shoreline Browns Bay side of CR 15: 26 unmarked stalls in rectangular gravel parking lot 5 potential parking stalls in triangular gravel area Total Available Stalls in areas previously approved for parking: 76 stalls Additional potential stalls not previously approved for parking: 5 stalls f. The City Council finds that the number of available parking stalls exceeds the required number of stalls for the proposed marina and boat club operation. g. Applicant's analysis of parking needs for the boat club use suggests that the nature of the boat club business is self-limiting, to the extent that proper site mana.gement resulting in club customers having no difficulties parking at the site is critical to maintaining the customer base. The applicant has acknowledged that there is no additional parking available on neaxby roadways and has indicated that off-site parking is not part of his intended business plan but may be used on occasion in a worst-case scenario. The Council finds that formally establishing an off-site parking requirement to serve the boat club use is neither desirable nor warranted. h. The location of this marina on both sides of Shoreline Drive creates a situation in which it is necessary to make all reasonable attempts to limit the need for pedestrian crossing of the public road. i. The 1989 approval for use of parking stalls located on the adjacent residential property was predicated on the common ownership of those residential parcels with the marina property. The recent changes in ownership which have resulted in the residential property being in separate ownership from the commercial property require establishment of a legal relationship to ensure the continued viability of this parking arrangement. j. The Council finds that it would be appropriate to establish a limit at this time to the number of slips allowed to be devotec� to boat club use, because of the lack of data and unpredictability of the parking needs for the boat club use. The property owner could apply for an amendment of the CUP in the future to request additional boat club usage, which would be reviewed on its merits at that time. Page 3 of 8 � �°� 0 0 C ITY of ORONO � � ti RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL ��� �'G~ 6 3 7 `9kEsII�4 NO. � 6. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow a boat club use at 1444 Shoreline Drive will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties, nor will its use depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 7. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed conditional use permit on the health, safety and welfare of the community. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a conditional use permit per Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-666 to allow a boat club use at 1444 Shoreline Drive subject to the following conditions: l. This approval shall not become effective until the City Attorney has approved the documentation establishing the permanent right for the marina to use parking area on the residential properties. 2. Operator(s) of the marina and boat club shall endeavor to have customer parking occur on the same side of Shoreline Drive as the boat being accessed, to avoid pedestrian crossings of Shoreline Drive. 3. No more than 20 slips may be devoted to boat club use. An amendment of this conditional use permit will be required in order to exceed this number. 4. Applicant and owner are advised that the only allowed commercial use of the residential property west of Shoreline Drive is for parking, and that the residence buildings on the residential property may not be used for commercial purposes. 5. The original approvals for redevelopment of this site in 1989 required establishment of rock beds at the lakeward end of the two main parking areas for trapping sediment and debris from the site. The property owner shall clean out and rebuild these structures as necessary to continue their effectiveness Page 4 of 8 � �o� 0 0 CITY of ORONO � � ti RESOWTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL '��� ,�G~ � `�k'EsKo�`' No. 6 0 3 6. Handicap parking sta11 signage and/or markings shall be re-established in appropriate location within the paved parking area. 7. Signage for the various uses will continue to be limited to that allowed by City Code for a commercial site. 8. The property owner shall ensure that lighting on land and on the docks is shielded to avoid future concerns of neighboring property owners. 9. Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this resolution sha11 constitute a violation of the Zoning Code, shall automatically eliminate any authority granted herein, and shall be punishable as a misdemeanor. The undersigned property owner has read, understood and hereby agrees to the terms of this resolution and on behalf of himself, his heirs, successors and assigns, hereby agrees to the recording of this resolution in the Chain of Title of the property.
