It will also serve to acquaint home owners. resort owners, and others with certain good practices to prevent structural ftes in forest areas and damage to valuable timberland and watershed areas. Throughout the Uaited States and Gnada, in forest areas, permanent homes, cabins. summer camps, and resorts are bring built in increasing numbers. The crowd- ing of cities has increased the desire for country living and each year more people are enjoying the beauty and natu- ral variety of forest lands. This migration to the forests and watershed areas brings a year-round fire prevention problem During the summer season, particularly, fuel and weather conditions unite to produce the• most hazardous fire situation. When a fire does get started in forest areas it is quite different from the city fire. where discovery and response usually entail short travel time. Urban fire departments can reach the scene of a fire quickly with adequate equip- ment, manpower, and water sicppPlies so that they can, in most instances. extinguish alaze promptly. Such is seldom the case in forest areas. The light construction of many homes, the flammable cover growth adjacent to the site, the relative inaccessibility to fire fighting apparatus, and lack of water supplies create a difficult (ondition. Once a building rite gains headway, total destruction usually results, with the added danger that flying brands may start a fast spreading forest fire or ignite other near by structures. Since the danger also exists that a forest fire may in- vade the residennal area, certain precautions are neces- sary to protect these structures. Therefore, it is essential that uniform standards and prevention measures be adopted. The National Fen Codes'' and other publications of the National Fire Protection Association, Inc. are ap- plicable to the construction and safeguArdinR of forest properties and should be followed for detail, -I fire control and fire safety information. Always t heck with local authorities regarding building codes. l hey may vary from none to quite comprehensive, usually on a county basis. Standard for Homes and Camps in Forest Areas NFPA 224-1979 NOTICE 1n auernA 10) /ollowmg the number or fetter designating a paragraph indicates explanatory material on that paragraph in .Appendix .4 Chapter I Introduction 1-1• Scope. This standard contains fire protection re- quirements for homes, cottages, camps, multiple oc- cupancies, and tracts or subdivisions of mobile homes or recreational vehicles in forest areas where indoor or out- door fires may endanger life or property. 1-2 Purpose. This publication is intended to serve as a standard for officers of fire control agencies. It can serve as a basis for regulations in areas not otherwise covered by organized fire protection and as a practical advisory guide for property owners in forest areas. It will also serve to acquaint home owners, resort owners, transients. and other forest area owners with specific good practices to prevent structural fires and save life in forest areas and prevent or minimize damage to valuable timberland. grazing land and watershed areas. 1-3 Central. When a fire does get started in forest areas it is quite different from the city fire. where discovery and response usuall entail short travel time. Urban fire departments can reach the scene of a fire quickly with adequate equipment. manpower. and water supplies so that they can. in most instances, extinguish a blare promptly. Such is seldom the case in forest areas. I -he light construction of many homes, framed t anvas l {►lasticl tents, the flammable cover growth adjacent to thr site. the relative inaccessibility to fire fighting ap paratus, and lack (if water supplies create a difficult con. dition. Once a building fire gains headway, total destruc icon usually results, with the added danger that flying brands may start a fast spreading forest fire or ignite other nearbv structures. Since the danger also exists that a forest fire may in vade the residential area. certain precautions are neces sary to protect thew structures.

(a) Make certain that fuses or circuit breakers of the correct capacity are used for the electrical circuits. If the fuse or circuit breaker is of the incorrect capacity, then electrical overload of the circuit may cause overheating of the wiring and breakdown of the insulation. with fire resulting. (b) All wiring should be fastened securely to recep tacles and fixtures. Frayed or loosely connected wiring can result in arcing and shock hazards. (e) Fuse and circuit breaker panelboards should be located in a dry area so that the danger from moisture will be minimised. All metal enclosures and other noncurrent -carrying metal parts should be effectively grounded.

Upon entering a forested area, learn how and where to report fires. If one is diumered, report it immediately. Careless campers are a cause of fires in forested arras Fires result in great loss to recreation areas, valuable timber and watershed lands. It is therefore of the utmost importance that campers reusgnize rnd appreciate their responsibility in preventing Gres. B-8.1 Making Camp. Use a prepared camp site, preferably where fireplaces or stoves are provided and vegetative hazard h3- been cleared away. Where it is permissible to prepare a camp site, follow these rules: B-8.1.1 Before building an open fire, scrape away all flammable material down to mineral soil for at least five feet on all sides. Don't confuse duff (decayed vegetable matter) with mineral soil - duff is combustible. Line with rock. B-8.1.2 Dig a small pit and keep the fire small. build it against trees, logs, stumps or near brush. B-8.1.3 Be sure pipe ashes, cigars or cigarette stubs are "dead out." then dispose of them in ash trays, mineral soil or water. B-8.1.4 Select an area near a source of water, if possi- ble. B-8.2 Leaving Camp. Never leave camp until your fire is "dead out." Saturate ashes and coals with water, stir thoroughly until ashes are cold to the touch. If you do not have sufficient water, stir or chop mineral soil into ashes and coals. C:on tinue this until coals are "dead out." Check by feeling them with bare hands Appendix C Bibliography l ku .4ppendix is not part of this N16PA Standard 224 of Is tntludrd for treformatton purposes onh C-1 NFPA Standards.

The Board of Govenors is currently considering several options involving utilization and development of thou Camp that are dramatic departures from the plans we have presented to the City of Orono. Consequently, any work on the Resolution may be premature, or at besL, less than totally pro- ductive.

Bernhardson, City Administrator From: Thomas J. Jacobs, Building Official Date: February 2, 1988 Subject: Big Island Veterans Camp - Inspection On January 29, 1988, an inspection was conducted by Jeanne Mabusth and myself. During this inspection we found the following: 1. Boathouse - The west wall is deteriorating, more than found in other inspections. The concrete block on this wall is falling apart and tipping over. Also found on the south wall both corners have becn shored up and concrete block foundation has been installed without approval. 2. Qerg Hall - We found every window and the front entry open to the public. We entered the structure and found foot prints and evidence of vandalism. At each end of the second, f lots windows appear to be doors with no stairways. About an 18' drop to grade. Walls are being busted up on the interior and exterior. This structure and the types of %andalism are causing a greater danger to the public. 3. Dining Hall - The dining hall is left open to the public and there are signs of people entering. The crawl spare access was left open leaving a hol(- in the f loor. The porch area has an access trap door to the basement which is a hazard to people walking in the structure. Windows and screens are broken and ripped apart. 4. North Hill Area - All structures with exception of one (Building 012) are open to the put'_ic. This includes the caretakers cabin. Also found were footings and foundations (new) which appear to not extend below the frost line (42 inches). 5. Berg Cabin, West Block & East Block Cabins `+nese structures were also open to the public. The debris }is been c:zaned up in the block buildings. Chimneys are still up. 6. Cook Cabin - The structure is open to the public. The brush and debris has been cleared from around the structure. 7. Peanut Row - These structures are also open to the public. The foundations of these structures shows why we have a major problem •„ith stacking concrete blocks. They are falling over and movement of the ground has blocks moving in all directions. 8. Hill Area - Al I structures except the restrooms are open to the publ ic. Cabin i9 is left in a state of possible col lapse. One corner is held up by a 4x4 which is tipping over. 9. General - While we were on the site we found no one in charge. We did see a number of snowmobiles and signs of people wandering around. Also a burning permit was applied for and the site was inspected. We found that they are burning mattresses and other unapproved materials. 0 BIG ISLAND VFTERANS CAMP BOARD Or GOVERNORS 17 February 1988 - Meeting Minutes �-, r The board meeting was called to order at 1900 at Ballentine VF14 with Morrow, Gorne„ Wisdorf, Aakre and Backes in attendence.

On May 12, 1986, the Orono City Council adopted Resolution i1988 which granted a conditional use permit to the Board of Governors allowing limited occupancy of the property during a clean-up program (which is still on -going) but did not allow public use of the camp. In addition, that resolution limiteu the camp to two permanent slips at the existing dock for the overnight mooring of two camp -owned boats. It was the intent of the City Council tc limit the public's access to the property until such time that hazardous conditions on the property have been eliminated and the appropriate use perm+ts for the camp operation have been granted. The clean up work has been on-goi,4. No Joint Use Dock License was issued by the City in 1961. It is our current understanding that the Board of Governors wishes tr open the camp for day camping and overnight tent camping as early as May let, 1988. However, no conditional use permit application for that use has been formally filed as of this writing, hence the currently approved use is merely week -end for overnight camping of work crews involved in the clean-up (and technically, that approval expired September 1st, 1986, although the same type of clean-up activity has continued through 1987 and into 1988). Note that the City of Orono has never approved a master plan for the veteran's Camp. For the above reasons, the City of Orono would object to the L.M.C.D.'s granting of a Joint Dock License to the Veteran's Camp for 8 boat slips until such time that the allowed degree of usage of the camp for 1988 has been resolved. m u tit. /tPONG 471 7157 • 411MMIS" %Tl(#% t FP%AN4'1 411' 1SN • PO NIX wO1RKS 4717359 AM &WW. • L.M.C.D., Attn: Frank Mixa February 25, 1988 Page 2 of 2 Please feel free to contact me or Zoning Administrator Jeanne Mabusth at 473-7357 if you have any questions regarding this request to delay your action on the referenced license application.

They have begun the process of putting plywood on the inside of windows of remaining strucutres as Tom Jacobs recommended to Larry Sharpe on 2/27. They have begun the gradual clean-up of any debris left from the fires and from the foundations of the cabins. The boat house has also been burnel and boats are now stored up by the block buildings, away from the lakeshore. Debris from Berg Hall has been kept in the pile and has not been removed to the depressed area to be buried. Mr. Wisdorf and Keith Akre will meet with me on Friday, March 4th at 2:30 p.m. to discuss the filing of a formal conditional use permit with the City. Inaddition he would like to touch base with Mike Gaffron regarding the on -site septic im. -ovements needed if any at this point. Mr. Wisdorf also asked if lir� could appear before the Council on March 14th and possibl the Planning Commission on the March 21st, to review the current status of the camp and the progress of the clean up. This request has yet to be confirmed by Mark Bernhardson and should be confirmed prior to their meeting on the 4th of March. Bib Island Veterans Camp k.u.

Mabusth - Building and zoning Administrator SUBJ: Application for Conditional Use Permit - Big Island Veterans Camp RE: March 14, 1988 Presentation to Orono City Council Enclosed herewith is an application for a conditional use permit allowing for renovation and opening of Big Island Veterans Camp. Significant changes have occurred since last fall that should be noted, specifically: - A total of thirty-two of the ijurty-three buildings on the camp property have been razed. This action dramatically reduces the hazards previously noted by city staff. - Of the remaining eleven buildings, only the caretaker's cabin has been retained for overnight habitation. Of the remaining ten build- ings, six have been converted for near -term use as storage buildings, three are latrines that will be refurbished, and one is the former dining hall which will be converted for use as a visitors center. Securing of the windows and doors of the remaining buildings is essentially completed. - A full-time caretaker, Mr. Mark Peterson, began his duties on April 1, 1988. His presence on the Island will greatly assist the Board in being more responsive in cleanup, renovation and operational activities. His telephone number at the camp is 474-1958. - The majority of old furniture and other items were removed from the Island in March. A total of 160 cubic yards of these materials were removed with consolidation of the remainder to be accomplished this summer for removal this coming fall or winter. - The initial operational capability envisioned for the Camp is a May 1988 opening for day use and overnight tent camping. Due to the short duration of the summer season, the Board requests the assist- ance of the city in rapid identification and approval of our compli- ance with the requirements of the City of Orono. The focus on day and overnight tent camping for the near -term dramatically reduces our costs for renovation and operation. handicapped accessible cabins are planned for construction in later phases. - Fund raising for Camp operations has also taken a positive turn with over $65,000 raised in the last sixty days. In addition, VFW and American I..egion posts will be solicited in a direct mail fund raising activity that will be mailed this month. Page 2 - Application for Conditional Use Permit - Big Island Veterans ^amp - Our 1987 efforts included over 5,700 man-hours of cleanup activities with a great deal of volunteer support from the U.S. Army Reserve, Veterans and the Boy Scouts. - A dialogue has been established and is continuing with the Suburban Hennepin County Park District Board and staff. While no specific joint -use opportunities or agreements have been identified, we feel that our discussions have been frank and useful to both parties. - The Hennepin County Sheriff Water Patrol has been approached con- cerning the proposed siting of a private medical evacuation helipad on the Island. Lt. Petersen, of the Water Patrol, advised that the establishment of the helipad would be fully supported by his depart- ment. In addition to providing emergency evacuation for campers, the helipad could also serve the emergency needs of the entire lower lake boating area. In light of the above changes and activities, the Board feels that a significant leap forward has been made in alleviating Orono staff, Council and Planning Commission concerns. Our hope is that Orono and the Board can move forward in a cooperative fashion to achieve the following objective.;- - Granting of a conditional use permit to allow completion of cleanup and renovation of facilities for opening. Inspection and approval of the Camp for opening of day camping by owner -veterans and their families. - Approval of the Camp for overnight tent camping. - Re-evaluation of the remaining buildings on the Island in light of their new intended uses. It is requested that a conditional use permit that can be activated by staff inspection and approval be granted. This approach will ensure compliance while reducing the loss of Camp operational time during the summer season.

Mahusth, Building 6 Zoning Administrator From: Michael P. Gaffron, Asst. Zoning Administrator Date: April 27. .988 Subject: Commet q Island Inspection - Septic Systems - Inspectic. /88 On this plate, Tom Jac.t_.,s an(: I met with Mark Peterson, Caretaker/Manager for the Big Island Vet's Camp. We inspected each of the known septic systems on the vet's camp property, and also looked at the well. I would make the following comments regarding the various systems inspected: 1. The septic system serving the old caretakers house at the west end of the property is under rubble and was not inspected. When that rubble is removed, any tank that existed at that site must be caved in and filled with dirt. 2. The old dormitory building on the west side of the property has been reduced to rubble. The old septic tank that nerved that building has been located and was uncovered. Since this system would not meet current cosies and is not anticipated for future use, the tank should be caved in and filled with dirt. 3. The old Spanish -style shower building likely contained plu.nbing, however the septic system location is unknown. As the remains of that building are cleaned up, the tank should be located and caved in and filled with dirt. 4. The toilet building on the north hill has a single septic tank of 4' diameter and approximately 6-7' deep, of self -curbing bloc-*.. construction and with no solid bottom. This tank is located a f k- feet to the northeast of that toilet building, and discharges through a 10' long pipe to a presumed deep bed -type drainfield (no rock was encountered during probing) and located approximately 30-40' from the steep cliff edge, and only 50 or 60' horizontally from the lake. Although there was no evidence that this system discharges to the surface, its location near the lakeshore is extremely substandard and any regular use of that system will have a high potential for discharge of untreated sewage to the lakeshore. I would recommend that this system be abandoned permanently. 5. Ballantyne Cabin, north hill. This cabin is currently occupied by the caretaker, Mr. Peterson. This cabin has a 6' diameter septic tank with approximately 5' liquid depth, located about 10' to the north of that cabin. The septic tank has a discharge pipe heading to the north, but no drainfield rock was encountered by probing. The tank itself is only about 15' from the cliff bank. Based on the same concern I have with the north hill toilet building, it's my recommendation that this system also be permanently abandoned. There is a high potential for this to seep to the surface in the cliff area and ultimately discharge untreated sewage to the lake. Because the building is occupied by one person, we may wish to allow his limited use to continue for a period of time, say 45 davF, until they can construct a new system. 6. Toilet building below Peanut Row. The septic tank for this building is located 10-15' south of the building. The tank is fairly large, however its design and constriction is questionable and the baffle system (which is rotting) allows for a very limited detention time within the tank. Although no drainfield was founu by probing, we believe there is drainfield located to the west and northwest of the toilet building. In looking further north, we found no evidence ' the system discharges to the surfac,- and it is located at least 2uu' from the lakeshore. It's my recommendation that this Rystem be allowed to continue in use until such time that it is fou,id to be failing. The property owners would be advised to retrofit that tank with a new baff le system and rework piping near the tank so that the detention time is maximized (the outlet of the tank should be directly across from the inlet, not a few feet to the side of it). It is my opinion that use of this system will not cause any damage to the environment, however, we have no way of determining the actual maximum capacity or capability of this system for accepting sewage. 7. The Cook's cabin (westerly of the block buildings). This building has a cesspool -type, self curbing block tank located directly behind it. Some of tl,�a cover sections are missing and/or caving in. This tank needs to be covered Lmmediately to preve; accidents. Since this building is currently intended for storage onl, no use of this system is anticipated. Since thf existing tank is i,ot a sealed tank, but merely a cessl ool with no visible discharge pike outlet, it is of questionable value an,4 certainly doesn't meet any current codes. We would not allow it to be used in the future in its current state, but might be suitable for future retrofitting. 8. West block and east block cabins. Both the block buildings had toilets, and in the west building, just to the west of the building is a pipe that we expect probably leads to some sort of a cesspool type tank. However, this tank has not been located. The east block building probably contains the same type of system. Since these buildings are to be used for storage, it is not a great concern at this time that the systems be located. However, it would be appropriate to find those systems and presuming they are merely cess- pools► fill them in so they will not be a hazard. 9. Dining Hall. The dining hall is sere !d by two systems, one of which is connected and one of which probably is not connected. A very large septic tank is located approximately 40' east of the dining hall building, and the manhole was uncovered during our inspection. It is not known where this tank (lischarges, although the caretaker s:irmises that a pipe heads to the south and surfaces near where Berg cabin w..s lccated. This system needs to be looked at in more detail, perhaps even having the tank uncovered in its entirety and the discharge location verified to determine whether or not the system should remsin in any tyl:n of use. The second system for the dining hal'. is to the rorth of the kitchen area and consists merely of a dry 1200 gal Ion capacity cesspool -type tank that was intende ^ be connecLed to a dishwasher which never was installed. At % Fast inarections, this tank has been totally dry, and probably nev_ r has been used. 10. South hill toilet building. Septic system serving this building is approximately 10' east of the northeast corner, with discharge pipe from the tank heading to the northeast. There is no evidence of any pipe discharging to the surface to the northeast and this system is located approxi itely 150' from the lakeshore. It is my opinion that this system should be allowed to continue in useuntil such time that it fails to accept the waste load, or at such time that it is found to be discharging to the surface. It's my opinion that the systen. in its current state can be used without causing any pollution problems. Again, we do not have any idea what the capacity of this system is, hence we don't know whether it will function adaquately under sustained use. 11. Anderson cabin west of the south hill toilet building. This system located about 30' from the lake. The Anderson cabin has been removed. The septic tank was uncovered. This system should be caved in and filled with dirt. SUMP"Y The toilet building below Peanut Row and the toilet building on the south hill would appear to have septic systems that are substandard in design, but in location would not appear to pose a threat to the lake, nor do they have any indication of discharge pipes to the surface. The capacities and capabilities of these two systems are unknown, and their design is certainly substandard compared to what would be installed today. It is my opinion that we could allow use of these systems until such point that they can no longer handle the flow discharging to them. The system to the east of the dining hall needs be looked at more closely to verify whether or not it will cause a surface discharge. would not want this system to be used until we have more information on All septic tanks or cesspools serving existing cabins or buildings that have been removed and/or are serving buildings which will be used only for storage, should be caved in and filled with dirt, so that they are not a hazard. The systems serving the toilet building and Ballentyne cabin on the north hill should be discontinued, and I would recommend that if the intent is for these cabins to remain in place, that a new system serving both buildings be constructed, perhaps on the south slope and located at least 75' from the cliff. Site evaluation would be needed. Other brief comments: A. There is still a lot of rubble from buildings that were burned or demolished, and many of these rubble piles pose a significant hazard for campers. It's my opinion that we should at least have all of the rubble moved to one location, before any camping is allowed on the island, and we may want to go so far as to have all the rubble removed or buried (as appropriate) prior to issuing any permits to allow the camp to open. B. About a 150' north of the Peanut Row toilet building there is an old foundation about 6' square covered with logs. This foundation hole could be a hazard and should be filled in. C. Tom Jacobs asked me to note that the Cook's cabin needs to have skirting installed around the pier foundation so that people and animals can't get underneath that building. D. We inspected the extention of the well casing, which has been brought to just below the floor level of the dining hall. It appears that there is a pit approximately 20' deep surrounding the casing extention, and the well head is now extending a 1 rast 12-18" above grade and just below floor level. This is a 6 -liameter casing extention, and the 20' or so section that was extended appears to have been attached by the use of a 6 bolt coupling. The installation would appear to meet code requirements, and we should verify that with Jim Nye of the Health Department that it is allowable to fill in this pit (that would be required anyhow) upon his approval. I would also note that the well appears to be located at least 75' or more from any known septic system or portions of septic systems. 1•�C'R` L' C` %lc~CF IV,, /4 Cr�P`t ni' 7?�( UT/LI'r7f ��rU:�reL re>PI AcM-E'%4.or) S-Z-glb Field Engineering, Inc.

Box 598 Excelsior, MN 55331 Re: Recent septic System Inspection Gentlemen: On April 26, 1988, Tom Jacobs and I met with Mark Peterson, caretaker for the Big Island Veterans Camp. At that time we inspected each of the known septic systems on the property, and also looked at the well. Based on this inspection, it is my recommendation that certain systems be allowed to continue in use until their capacity (unknown) is reached, as long as they do not pose a pollution or health hazard. There are also specific systems which, due to their location or condition, should be abandoned and filled in. The Peanut Row toilet building and the South Hill toilet building are both served by what appear to be single septic tank/drainfield systems, both located 150' or more from the lake and some distance above lake level. It is my opinion that although these systems are substandard in design, and have an unknown and unmeasurable capacity for accepting and treating sewage, they will likely not pose a health or pollution hazard if used. In both tanks, the baffle system should be repaired or replaced. The following systems are no longer intended for use and must be properly abandoned by caving in the covers and filling the tanks with dirt: 1. Old caretaker cabin site (west of boat house site). 2. West side of former dormitory building. 3. Old shower building northeast of dorm. 4. West Block. 5. East Block. 6. Anderson cabin. The systems serving Ba 1 lantine cabin and the North Hill toilet building are substandard both in design and location, and it is my recommendation that those systems also be abandoned, since they are located very near the lakeshore cliff and ► ave a high [ll ILDING! Z(►NIM; 471-7357 • AI)41%1S'T'RAIU)N! Fl%%%( 1 471735N • PA FILM %ORKS 471'159 ASSFSSIN6 potential for causing a pollution hazard if used on a regular basis. I would recommend that if you intend to continue the use of the plumbing in these buildings, that a new system to serve both buildings be constructed to current standards on the south facing slo, c in front of those buildings. This would, of course, require soil testing and the normal design procedure. I would also note that the caretaker now uses the Ballantine cabin system, which is only 15' from the cliff. I would recommend that that system be allowed to continue in use for a short period of time for your convenience, say 45 days, during which time you should consider whether you wish to install a new septic system or remove plumbing from those buildings. The Cook's cabin is served by a cesspool -type tank with no visible pipe outlet. Since it is our impression that this building is to be used for storage only at this time, but that you may wish to retrofit that tank for future use, it would be appropriate that at this time you replace the broken or missing cover sections and allow that tank to remain in place unused for the time being. The tank to the north of the dining hall apparently was installed to serve a dishwasher, but has never been connected. Again, that tank can remain in place, but you should make sure that the cover sections remain in place so that the tank does not become a hazard. To the east of the dining hall, Mr. Peterson noted a very large septic tank of unknown dimensions with a possible outlet pipe that may discharge near the old Berg cabin site. This system needs to be further investigated to determine its size, condition, and design before we would allow its use. Given the above, I would recommend to the City Council that only the South Hill and Peanut Row toilet buildings be allowed to continue in use for the time being, with the understanding that while those systems are located so as to not pose any apparent health or pollution hazard, their capacities are virt.ally unknown and we cannot determine at what level of use they will become a problem. Ultimately, you should plan on replacing these two systems with systems conforming to current codes. Regarding the well casing extont ion, we inspected that installation on 4/26/88 and it would appear to meet the pertinent code standards, being extended approximately 12" to 18" above grade below the f loor of the dining hall. The pit surrounds the top 10' to 15' of that casing should be filled with dirt, . the pipes extending into the floorboard area should be protec a from traffic that may loosen the piping. Realizing that your intent for the 1988 season is for tent camping only, the two toilet buildings will hopefully provide the necessary level of facilities for this limited use. As your plans develop for future use of the property, I would be pleased to meet with you to discuss a comprehensive strategy for dealing with waste water on the property, to insure that facilities are properly sized, designed and located for permanent use. Please contact me at 473-7357 if you have any questions. Sincerely, Michael P. Gaffron Assistant Zoning Administrator cc: ,Jeanne A. Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator Thomas J.

The first phase will be for a Conditional Use Permit to be issued for the work crews to complete the final clean up and removal of all hazardous conditions on the island. This should be the last time the City deals with a temporary Conditional Use Permit for the wr-k crew use as all hazardous conditions will be removed within the next 30 days. The second phase of the Conditional Use Permit wi 11 be the one ' ssued for the camp for only day use recreation. Staff will schedule the work crew - temporary Conditional Use Permit before the Council on May 23, 1988. The second phase, day use recreation use will be brought back to the Planning Commission on June 6 for finalization and recommendation and brought to the Council for final action on June 27, 1988. It is the hope of the applicant that they can be open for the July 4th weekend. Over night camping use with tenting will be approved sometime later in the summer season. Staff has advised that because of the specific setback requirements for tenting, that a survey would have to be submitted with that phase of the application. Staff has allowed the applicant to proceed with the day use recreational area phase with simply the site plan we have already on file. Staff will discuss the det ti 1 of the use later in the memo. Zoning File 01277 Page 2 Mork Crew - Conditional ttse Permit (Effective May 23, 1988 through July 1, 1988) - The applicant seeks r^ne4al of the work crew permit that would allow them to remove all final haz4.lous conditions on the site. 32 of the -.3 structures have been removed, the :--maining 11 excluding the caretaker mouse and the buildings defined as storage structures must be boarded up and secured prior to opening to the public. Debris from the razed/burned structures must be removed or put in an approved burying area. The debris not to be buried must. be secured with fencing and screened from public way. The job of the work crew will be to prepare the camp for the ope-ing to the public for day use re,:reation. Resolution 198b, enclosed for your consideration, lists the special conditions unuer which the work crews operated in previous years. Staff will amend the original conditions of that resolution to more fit the project for this years work crew. The conditions recommendel are as follows: 1. Crew to be limited to 57 workers - family members and friends are not to be on camp site for the duration of the temporary permit. 2. Workers shall use portable gas stoves and charcoil grills for cooking - open burning to be approved by Orono Fire inspector. 3. Tenting is allowed only for work crews. The authorized caretaker Mark Peterson, shall be the only person to remain permanently on site for the duration of the temporary permit. 4. The facility shall be inspected by the Orono staff on a regular basis during the clean up program. 5. Hazardous buildings are not to be occupied by work crews but are to remain boarded up and secured from public. 6. Fire extinguishers must be prodded on site. 7. Two septic facilit ies/st.ructures have been approved for use by the work crews and are defined as the South Hill (Point Charming Structure) and the Peanut Row facility, per Section 46 30.0900 of the State Health Code. A single shower must be provided for men and women based on 57 crew members The water sure Iv has been apr roved by the Orono Staff and awaits state certification. 8. Provide a current Certificate of Insurance coverage. 9. Materials not able to be burned or buried wil 1 be stored in an area approved by the Orono staff until "ice in", at which time the debris will be hauled off the island. This site must be screened and secured from members of the public who will be using the island at some future time. 10. The camp shall be limited to two rermenant slips at the r ' --ting dock for camp boats and six transient slips for workers. Arp. .an*. must have LNCD permit for the 1988 season. 11. The clean up program shall be limited to the following activities: A. Cleaning, grading, and seeding of al 1 areas disturbed with burning and razing of old structures. B. Clean up and burning of debris/brush. C. The burning of approved debris in the approved defined area by tae Orono staff. D. The building o irproved structures required for the opening of the camp for day .se recreation, ie. ricnic structures. Zoning File #1277 Page 3 Once again, this phase of the application will be presented for Council action at their May 23, 1988 meeting. If Planning Commission has any other comments or concerns regarding the operation of the camp under this temporary permit please advise staff. Day Use Recreation - Conditional Use Permit - In the applicants addendum information, they asked for special consideration regarding a comprehensive permit approval that would provide direction to staff so that if specific conditions are met, staff would have the authority to allow either the day use recreation or overnight camping uses, rather than apply for seperate permits. As staff noted above, if the application that was scheduled to be reviewed at present was to include overnight camping, that a survey would have been required so that setbacks and improvements could be located with the setbacks confirmed per RS and NFPA standards. For the current review, the applicant has submitted preliminary comments and submittals but that your final review of the day use recreation phase of the application will be at your June 6 meeting. If Planning Commission members accept the applicants request to establish appropriate guidelines for further staff approval then staff must ask for the survey at this point. As staff noted above, the site plan on file that has been used for all previous reviews was accepted just for he day use recreation permit. In preparation for the June 6 meeting, staff req tests the following additional information and submittals: I. To expand the site plan submitted for day use showing: A. All existing structures, even though nit in use. B. Picnic shelter and information or elevations on the picnic shelters, the number and locate then on the site. C. Designate the two toilet/lavatories structures for use. D. Provide mcre information on fire stations/fire ring. Applicant has advised that all cooking would be done with stoves/grills located within the picnic shelters, fire stations were to consist of 55 gallon drums with buckets located somewhere in the area. E. Locate new 20 slip dock and locate area for informal mooring of boats along shore for additional guests arriving via boats. F. Future location of helipad on island. G. Designate area to be subdivided at some future date. (Note approximate area of lands.) H. Locate small/fishing boats on land storage area. I. Other improvements for day recreation use that Planning Commission feels should be located and designated on the site plan. 2. Applicant is advised to apply for an LMCD permit for the expansion in dock use. In addition to the 8 for camp use and 20 transient slips for visitors. The City will also require a joint use dock license. 3. Signage If signage is proposed for the island the City must approve the signage and the location of the signage on the island. This do4s not Zo:;ing File #1277 Page 4 include the normal location and designation signage that the camp would have to provide for the users of the facility. 4. Provide information on employees. Mark Peterson is the caretaker for the season. Please advise how many other employees will be working for the camp this season. In addition. provide information on a telephone and additonal telephone service foz the day use recreation area. 5. Site gargabe - The site plan reveals an area or location for the garbage retention. Provide information as tc the pick up and the schedule of that pickup. 6. Control of the number of visitors to the facility - how will the caretaker/manager control the number of visitors daily. a maximum number should be established based on the limits of the septic facilities and RS district standards. 7. Fencing - Fencing may be required along the high sharp cliffs. This fencing need only be a 3 1/2' high cylone fence. This should be reviewed with staff. For sometime staff has mentioned this concern amongst ourselves, but we have never approached the applicant with this concern. Fencing and an appropriate warning sign may be necessary. B. Septic needs shall be per tables setforth in the State Health Department regulations 4630.0900, see Exhibit I. Dependent site shall be determined by the number of picnic tables proposed and an agreed upon number for possible boat picnicers and others who picnic on grass areas. The Peanut Row and the South Hill facility have been confirmed as acceptable by Michael Gaffron. 9. The septic system serving the caret .xer unit must be replaced early this summer season. Staff would suggest by mid July. Planning Commission should add any other information the* •trey feel is necessary to complete the review. Staff should note that 1 Gaffron and Tom Jacobs have made a recent inspection of the fak y and the applicant has submitted an updated site utilities map of the p, review Exhibit J. Staff approved the well and the water supply and now offical state certification will be sought. Staff sees no problem with the camp receiving that certification. Existing buildin^s not to be open to the public shall remain boarded up as approved by the inspector. The applicant has asked if the Planning Commission or possibly members of Council would like to make an inspection prior to the June 6 meeting. If Planning Commission feels this would be appropriate and helpful in completing their review, please advise both applicant and staff. Applicant would be well advised to start the process of obtaining a survey of the facility if it is there plan to include tenting in the activities for this year. 7oning File i1277 rage Additional Cosmients and Planning Com•ission Recommendation The applicant reviewed the current status of the island and the progress that the work crews have made in the process of the removal of the hazardous conditions on the island facility. As Mr. Wisdorf noted, they were quite anxious to get out to the island and continue the clean up process under the required Conditional Use Permit for work crews. As staff noted above, this will be the last season that the City will have to issue a Conditional Use Permit for work crews, as all hazardous conditions will be removed prior to the opening of the camp for day use recreation. Planning Commission had no other comments regarding the Conditional Use Permit for the first phase referred to as the Work Crew Conditional Use Permit and accepted staffs recommendation. The second phase of the Conditional Use Permit referred to as the Day Use Recreation Permit will receive final review and i-.commendation from the Planning Commission at their .Tune 6, 1988 meeting. The enclosed resolution has been drafted per the Planning Commission recommendation as setforth on pages 2 and 3 above. MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD MAY 16, 1988 Q1274 DAVID J.

Bellows vo' ,ed concern with the overuse of the septic system finding there may be problems with controlling the use of the restroom by the general boating publ: She suggested adv•acing the deadline for upgrading t e systems. Gaffron stated there were two restroom facilities that are useable at this time, but their capacity is unknown. He suggested utilizing these restrooms until they become a problem at least for this year. There were no comments from the public regarding this matter and the puolic rearing was closed.

PICNICKING This type of park use appeals to all ages with particular appeal to urbanites and normally originates within 1-1/2 hours drive of the park (21, 33, 35). The day -use party participates in an average of 2 to 2.5 activities. About 15 to 20 percent of visitors excluding sightseers/transients participate in only one activity. Sixty-five to seventy percent of use occurs on wvekends 'siring the summer (8, 20). For more locally oriented parks thu use is likely to be more evenly distributed over the week.

Prefer tables in open areas with scattered trees or under low, coniferous canopy in preference to high, deciduous canopy (43). 2. Definite preference for tables near parking areas. Use drops off greatly over 60 feet (18 m) beyond a parking area (about the length of many back yards) and, given the opportunity, many picnickers will drive right up to the picnic table (43). 3. Picnickers will spread their lunches on the grass rather than walk 400 feet (120 m) to a table (43). 107 1 4. All people will picnic as close to a water body as they are allowed or to which they can physically get. GENERAL 1. The typical visitor parks as close to his final destination as possible and then goes to his major objective (beach, picnic table), and then to the comfort station. 2. Most prefer to be able to have an opportunity to swim. One in two want play fields and areas nearby. One in three express a desire for hiking trails (33). 3. Most picnickers have a variety of equipment including ice chest, supplies, cooking stove or grill, chairs, blankets, radios, etc. 4. Picnic facilities with a view (especially of water) are used more than those without a view (41). Pic- nicking adjacent to swimming is usually heavily used. 5. Many picnic areas with partially shaded grass areas will have a significant percentage of the users picnicking informally without using tables. 1013 i bbdy as icaIly get final is major to the ity to is nearby. •ails (33) incIudi� chairs, water) Plc - ily used s areas rS 6.

In all cases, the c,",elters must be designed to be compatible with the existing park arch4tecture and the surrounding environment. Most park agencies reserve pavilion space for a fee.

Due to operation costs this type of rubbish disposal is being replaced by dumpsters. 110 Acceptable: Dumpsters located at parking lots. They must be located on a stabilized surface and accessible to a large rubbish disposal truck. An attempt should be made to paint them in a color compatible with the park colors.

Maximum distance from parking to picnic table - 400 feet (120 m); 250 to 300 feet (75 to 90 m) - desirable (35). 3. Overflow Parking Usually gravel or turf. frequently called "stabi- lized turf" and should be considered part of the total design capacity; should be provided in all heavily used areas. This type of parking is inexpensive to build and maintain and minimizes the visual impact on the park when not in use. The amount can be arrived at by determining the aver ;e heavy -use day and then providing the additional holiday and heaviest day parking as overflow. In no circumstance should a park be permitted to exceed its total design capacity. Overflow parking must not use open fields normally us,_J for recreational activities. These are most needed for their intended use during heavy attendance. IWA ACT11,'ITV AREA At day -use areas subjected to heavy use, it is desirable to provide facilities and/or space for various recreation activities such as children's play, horseshoes, volleyball and baseball, etc. (these areas to be designed for no super- vision). Areas should be surfaced according to intended use. Play fields should be a minimum of 200' x 200' (60 x 60 m); desirable - 300' x 600' (90 x 180 m), of clear nearly level land suitable for playing ball games (see Chapter XII - "Play Areas & Playfields").

Parking: two cars per picnic unit in urban areas; 1.5 cars per unit in non -urban areas. 6. Adequate shade from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. FAMILY LAWN UNIT Lav, picnicking takes place on portions of lawn or turf areas and consi s of turf, shade and parking area. Density may be greater tnan family units. GROUP UNIT A picnicking area for groups of a minimum of 25 persons constitutes a group picnicking unit. The maximum number to be accommodated in a group area must be determined by avail- ability of space and demand for group facilities by large organizations. Facilities described here will accommodate 50 persons. For groups of different sizes, these facilities can be adjusted proportionally. 113 f to $✓tt pact �"y'Q O O Requirements uAE dAEa ewuf 7 uAwt 1. Minimum area: two+ acres (1 ht), usable land. 2.

Also present was Dave LaPorte and Carl Anderson manger of this operation, ind Rob White owner of the building. Administrator Bernhardson stated this is an appeal of the Zoning Administrator's interpretation of the zc)nin^ code. Northern Hydraulics recently started to move into a building in the City' Industrial Zone. Zoning Administrator Mabusth's interpretation, of our prese^r code in which the Planning Commission concurred, is that the retail portion of this operation is not permitted. A _-eparate issue would be whether it is an appropr iate use in our industrial zone and i f the Council concurs with staff and Planning Commission that such is, it would necessitate a zoning code amendment to allow such use. Paul Hauge stated that the type of operation Northern Hydraulics proposes in this location wouli fit into the zoning code which deals with wholesaling and warehousing under ;sections 10.50 Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that approximately six months before, the leasing agent for VCI called and stated that Northern Hydraulics was looking at the facility and the leasing agent was advised they would have to come in for a zoning BIG ISLAND VETERANS CAMP On Beautiful Lake Minnetonka P.O.

We intend to hire a part- time person to help Mark Peterson when the camp is open. We are also establishing a roster of volunteers far camp main- tenance and visitor registration at the island. The telephone number at the camp is 474-1958. This will also serve as our emergency telephone. We are currently eval- uating actions for additional phone service but we feel that the present phone is adequate for near :.erm operations. 5. Garbage and trash will be retained in the fenced garbage area shown on site plan. It will be held in covered garbage cars and carried to the mainland a few at a time each time our ferry goes to the mainland. Once a week we will make a special trip to the mainland to dispose of any and all remaining garbage. 6. Contrul of the number of visitors will be accomplished as follows: A. Big Island Veterans Camp is not open to the public. It is privately owned by the veterans of Minnesota. By state statute only veterans, veterans' families, widows, orphans, veterans groups, veteran -supported charities or other veteran -related activities may use the camp. B. "Private Property, No Trespassing" signs will be posted along the share lire and at all entry points to the island. C. All users will be required to register. During high use periods w�_ will have a volunteer dedicated to signing in guests. The care taker will ask all unregistered trespassers to leave. D. The water patrol, many of whom are veterans them- selves, have been very watchful and frequent visitors to she island during this vacant period. They are very eager to respond in an instant's notice if needed to control trespassers. We propose the following maximum numbers of day -use visitors: E. Normal Daily Maximum: 240.According to State Health Department Campground Regulations, Chapter 41%J30.0900, the eight toilets and urinals we have will support 30 overnight camping groups or sites. For toilet usage, if we consider one camping group equivalent to two picnic groups, then we could have 60 picnic groups. If there are four peopl per group then the total would be 240 people. F. SDecial event maximum: number of u:-!rs allowed by Subdivision 3, Paragraph C, acres. 1140 which is the maximum the Orono RS Zoning Code, 20 users per acre X 57 Any crowds over 1140 will require a special crowd permit from City of Orono. 7. Fencing: 100 lineal feet of 3 1/3 feet high cyclone fence wil be provided at top of embankment at Point Charming. 8. The Hennepin County Health Department :.?s now said that since we no longer have any food service and no quest rooms that they no longer have jurisdiction in our cas.-. The State Health Department governs campgrounds and we will get a license and inspection from them when we open for overnight camping. However, we do intend to follow Hennepin County Health Guidelines for our toilets and they have requested we send them interior elevations of the toilets for *--ir infor- mation, which we will do. 9.

The current review involves the second phase of that Conditional Use Permit thAt would allow r Zoning File #1277 Page 2 of 5 the Big Island Board of Governors to open the facility to the public for day use recreation nn)y. It is understood by the applicant that overnight camping would require a seperate review. It is staff's understanding that the applicant plans to submit an application some time in July. Staff will begin the review of the day use recreation in consideration of the standards set forth in the RS district (Subdivision 3 (C) 1-9) as follows: Item 1. Mi tam dry, buildable area required for number of users. Minimu, +: _:a required - 5 acres Existing - 57 acres 100 user require 5 acres Each 20 additional users Lequires ar additional acre The applicants propose a maximum number of 240 cnic/users of the day use recreation area. In applicants R'• -dum, Exhibit E, staff noted that applicant would apply to the _he user level exceeded 1,140 (20 users x 57 acres!. Based on tht _ user level for this Conditional Use &.rmit, the applicant must ob• .4-racial Events Permit from the City of Orono if any event results in a level. over 740, -review ;.25 of your Municipal Code, Ordinance 22 Secind 5«ies. ItLm 2. The minimum lot width of the sh:,rel ine shall be : n0', the applicants recent survey information confi!ms that they have alms 6,500' of shoreline. Item 3. The Veterans group have applied for a joint use dock license showing an expansion of 20 boats from the originally approved joint license cf 8 for a total of 28 units. Review Exhibit N. In the absence of a formal mari;ia committee, the amended joint r • -? dock license will be rt wed anJ a--+--d or - nder the current Conditional Use Permit. For the RS sta..aard, the proposed increase of 20 boat units is easily satisfied with ;',e 6,50C linel feet of shoreline (1 slip per 50' of shoreline requi_cd by the LMCC ordinances). Planning CommisRion members may wish to review Code Section .42 for joint use dock license application standards. Staff did ask in the original review for a site plar tiowinn the I_ation of the new dock. In r.•✓iewing Exhibit M, the pros, ed site plr !or the day use recreation at -ea, 3 docks are now noted a 1 orgy the shor - '. i i,e. For the joint use dock view, staff would have to gave a more detai •d plan showing the length of those docks and the slip location at each of those aocks. The docks clearly meet the required 10' setba-k from adjacent lot lines for the first 0-50' of dock length, in addition '- sati3fyiny the 15' setbAck for a dock length between 50 and 1001. Item 4. The swimming areas ha% < been cl • rl•. rk ] off on the site plan and its location appears to be well awa.1 ,:om the boating traffic. Applicant should be advised to consider souse form of formal supervision during the public �,e ich hours. Applicant would be well advised to check their liability insurAnce to see wtha wc,.;1 j be required. Zoning File #1277 Page 3 of 5 Item 5. On site sewage treatment. As staff not.FA In the earlier review, Mike Gaffron has confirmed that the South Hill and the Peanut Row lavatory structures are adaquate to serve the day use recreation area, review Exhibit E, specifically page 3, the summary section. Although the Hennepin County Health Department has no jurisdiction at this point, the applicant does plan to send the interior elevations of the toilets for their review. Item 6. The applicants propose no new structures with the day use recreation area. Item 7. The applicant reports that they have a telephone line, as required for emergency telephone purposes. Item 8. Property is most certainly located directly on the shoreline with adequate 6,500 linal feet of that shoreline. Item 9. Based on our plat maps, the property is still shown with three sep'crate tax parcels and should be combined as one. Our plat maps are old and applicant may have already completed the legal combination at this point. If not, the City would ask that they legally combine all three tax parcels. This completes the review of the sta 'ands set forth unde.- the day use recreation use. Staff would now like iddress the items noted on page 3 of the staff memo, dated May 13, 1988. Item 1 of that memo deals with the upgrading of the site plan. All existing structures are shown on the site plan. Applicant advises that picnic shelters are not planned for the immediate opening of the day recreation area, but picnic tables will be provided. The area of picnicking has been designated, there is no actual number or picnic tables. The fire stations and fire ring areas have been located on the site plan. Review Exhibits J, and L. Staff would ask that a non-combustible surface be provided least 4' around all of the subject structures. Staff has the following comments on the fire alarm station: the fire triangle must be hung with chain, not wire and a sign should be provided near the triangle that says "fire alarm use only". The new dock areas have been shown, including the informal mooring area of the boats, along the southwest shoreline. Future helltad sites have been shown. The 10, 14, aluminum fishing boats will be stored to the west of the dock area, adjacent to the shoreline. The applicant has advised that the} have no current plans to subdivide the property. If Planning Commission has any specific comments to make regarding the site plan for this facility, ;lease note them at the meeting. Item 2 of the staff memo. Applicant has proceeded with applying for an LMCD permit for the expansion of the joint dock and has also applied for a joint use dock license with the City for a total of 28 boat units. As part of the joint use dock license reviews, staff must ask for a more detailed plan of the three docks, giving the dimensions and the length of the dock and designating the slip area. Applicant must provide a more detailed ;Ian of docks prior to Counci l's approval of the joint use dock license. Zoning File 41277 Page 4 of 5 Applicants' joint use dock application refers to permanent pilings, suggesting a permanent dock structure. Applicant is advised that if dock is not a seasonal dock, then a Conditional Use Permit would be required for a permanent dock with pilings. This would also require DNR and LMCD approval. Item 3, Signage. .1,11 free-standing signs should be located at least 75' from the shoreline. Camp rules signs may be allowed attached to the dock structures. Review Exhibit C for Signage plan. Item 4. It appears that Mark Peterson, the full time caretaker with have a part time assistant and the Board will be looking for volunteers to assist during the peak weekend times. Refer to page 1 of Applicant Addendum, Exhibit E. Items 5. Trash will be retained in a fenced garbage area, shown on the site plan and covered garbage cans will be carried to the mainland whenever the ferry goes to the mainland. A once a week trip will he made are a special trip to dispose of any remaining garbage. Review Exhibit r a sample of a trash can bin that is considered for use by the Veterans Ca ,,. Items 6. Control of the number of visitors to the facility. The applicant reminds us that this is indeed a camp for the exclusive use of Veterans and they will atte:*l.t to provide appropriate no trespassing or private property signs around thr. island perimeters. All users of the camp will be required to register. During peak hours of use, volunteers will be responsible for having all guests sign in. All unregistered visitors will be required to leave. The water Patrol will be the agency used to control a trespass problem if needed. Remember the maximum number of uses is limited to 240. Items 7, fencing. The apl'.�cant has agreed to provide a minimum of 100 lineal feet of 3 and a ha;: eet high cyclone fencing along the top of the enbankment of the south hill shoreline. Items S. As Gaffron's memo has confirmed, the ,wo existing septic systems will be adaquate to serve 240 user level. The two lavatory structures or toilet facilities will provide 8 toilets. Item 9. The septic system serving the caretaker unit will be replaced as of July 15, 1998. The applicants advise that if a system has not been i nsta 1 1 ed, that a 11 use wou ld cease and that the caretaker wou ld now use the septic/lavatory facility at Peanut Row. Staff recommends approval of the day use recreation Conditional Use Permit for the Big Island Board of Govenors for their Big Island Veterans Camp facility based on the following findings: 1. The 57 +- acres site is large enough to support the proposed day use recreation without any adverse effect upon the lake or upon the adjacent wetlands that are located within the subject property. Zoning File #1277 Page 5 of 5 2. The proposed use will have no negative impact upon the neighboring adjacent property owners. 3. Based on the level of use, the fire protection system developed by staff and applicant will provide the extra precautions necessary to maintain the public safety and welfare. 4. The use of the facility at 240 user level will well satisfy *he ratio recommended by this ordinance for day use recreation at a 20 user, per 1 acre ratio. Approval would be subject to the following conditions: 1. Prior to the camp opo:.ing to the public, the Orono staff must inspect th--� facility to insui< the following required improvements ha%F_ been completed: a. All debris, trees and tree trimmings to be disposed of as approved by the Orono staff, either by removal, buried, burned, or stored in an approved area for removal w*,en ice is in. b. All buildings secured as directed by of the building inspector. The caretaker cabin shall be completed for legal occupancy. Inspector to confirm upon that fin.,l inspection. C. Fire stations installed. d. Toilet facilities to be readied for public use. e. Fencing installed along top of enbankment at South Hill (Point Charming). f. Ground cover maintenance completed. g. Trespass/Private Property signage installed. This should also include the signage for the rules of operation of the facility that is to be installed at the dock area. h. Security lighting should be reviewed with staff prior to opening. i. The area for helipad use should be staked out and kept clear. Applicant should also provide information to the City concerning which emergency agency facility will be contacted in cases of emergency at the facility. j. Submit a copy of the current liability policy/coverage for the Rig Island Veterans Vamp. Other conditions of this approval: 1. Non-combustible (possibly crushed rock) ground cover 4' in width around the fire rings and the charcoal grill areas. 2. Fire station ground area must be kept clear of weed coverage, chain instead of wire to be used for Lolding the triangle and appropriate signage defining the triangle is for fire alarm use only. 5 3. Complete the appropriate signage for the facility. Per signage plan submitted for the Conditional Use Permit review. 4. Approval of a joint use dock license by the LMCD for the dock to be installed at the campsite. Prior to scheduling this application before th- Council, the City staff must review a more detailed dock plan for 28 boat units. Applicant should advise new dock is to be a permanent dock. Additional Comments and Planning Commission Recommendation The only comments the Planning Commission had in addition to the staff report noted above was the issue of the signage proposed for the site. Planning Commission felt the 8' by 8' sign advertising the camp was far too large for the recrentiona 1 use district and recommended that the minimum sign area for a commercial use be allowed not to exceed 50 s.f. in area. The applicant had no problems in reducing the signage for the proposed use. The Planning Commission moved to adopt the staff recommendation noted above and in addition sited the limits on the size of signage and that the "camp rules" sign at 3' by 5' could be placed by the dock. All other signage would have to meet the 75' setback from the lakeshore. The enclosed staff resolution has been drafted per the Planning Commission findings and conditionf of approval.

She noted that staff would like to see a detailed plan to accompany the application for a joint use dock permit. Mr. Wisdorf stated they would submit a plan to staff. Bellows felt that the proposed 8'x 8' Big Island Veterans Camp sign to be located by the dock was too large, noting that the sign should be needed only for identifying the camp location, not advertising the camp to the public. Mr. Wisdorf stated they had no problem with reducing the sign to meet the sign sfAn�lards.

After years of renovation by a corps of dedicated volunteers, the 58 acre island camp will again become a restful haven and RiR spot for all the Veteran's of Minnesota and their families. The camp will operate first as a day recreation camp where any — teran or his family may bring their own picnic for a day of fun, sun and and relaxation. It is expected that the camp will be ready for overnight tent campers with'n several months, pending additional work and the necessary license and permit approvals. Long range plans include the construction of picnic/cooking snelters as well as Nandi -capped accessible cabins. Mark Peterson, the camp manager, alnost grew up at the camp, - 1 - first as i child camping there with his parents and later as a summer worker at the camp. "I just love the quiet, the stars and the cool lake breezes. And of course there are the swimming, fishing and playground for the kids at the camp. The camp is so close yet seems so far away", says Mark. To get to the camp you may take the MTC bus or drive to the Excelsior public docks and ride the Camp's pontoon ferry boat to the island. The ferry operates at 9:30 a.m. and 6:00 i.m. on weekends, and by appointment on week days. Just call 474-1958. "Such a camp actually owned jointly by all the veterans of the state and accessable only by boat is probably unique in the nation", says Dora Peterson, chairperson of the P.R. committee for tha Veteran's Board of Governors. According to the Board of Governors, "there will be a nominal registration fee at first until we see what our costs are and how our fundraising is going." The camp has an ongoing need for donations of labor, material and funds. If you wc_.Id like to contribute and would like more information or would to see our sli,-?e show, please write P.O.
