WHEREAS,the City of Orono is a municipal organization under the laws of the State
of Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, requests have been received from residents in this area for signs
prohibiting boat trailer parking to address problems associated with vehicle and boat trailer parking.
This parking is the result of overflow from the Maxwell Bay and North Arm boat landing areas.
Problems include safety of children in the area, damage to lawns, trash, noise, and boat docking at the
Sandy Beach dock for the loading and unloading of passengers; and
• WHEREAS, the street widths in this area are substandard for on-street parking of
numerous vehicles with trailers; and
WHEREAS,the docking of boats at the Sandy Beach dock for the loading and
unloading of passengers is creating a safety hazard; and
WHEREAS, the County Roads and other City Streets in the vicinity of the North Arm
and Maxwell Bay boat landing areas are posted for No Parking thus intensifying the parking problems in
the Sandy Beach Neighborhood.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Orono City Council does hereby
authorize and direct the Orono Public Works Department to install signs indicating "No Parking for
Vehicles with Trailers, Tow Away Zone" along Cherry Avenue, Maple Place, and Minnie Avenue, for
the entire lengths of these roads.
