The LMCD has had their <br />second meeting with the marina owners. The owners are requesting that they be allowed to go out up to <br />200 feet. Currently half of the docks are out between 100 to 200 feet. Under the current regulations, they <br />would not be allowed to violate any of the side setbacks, but the marina owners would like the latitude to <br />make changes within the envelope of the 200 feet without needing LMCD approval. The LMCD is only <br />considering that at this time for the commercial marinas but they may possibly consider yacht clubs <br />sometime in the future. <br /> <br />McMillan commented she is glad the LMCD is reviewing the marina code. <br /> <br />McDermott stated the code was put in place a number of years ago for different reasons and the LMCD is <br />reviewing the code to see if some of the restrictions are still applicable today. <br /> <br />PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS – JOHN THIESSE, REPRESENTATIVE <br /> <br />Thiesse stated he had nothing to report but would be available for questions.
