-¿<-Sf This is the Concept plan proposal which Bob and Peggy Slater, from Lake Owasso Marina 2774 Victoria Street, are submitting for approval for a P.U.D.. We are applying for a P.U.D. so that we may be able to use our "extra lot" which was purchased in 1983 for use by the Marina. We use this space for parking cars in the summer and storing boats in the winter. As proposed in the sketch plan, we propose to erect a fence between us and our neighbor to the north. This will create privacy for the future owners of that lot which is for sale. The board-on-board design will match the other fences on our property and the vines will make it even more appealing. The following will be our response to the Planning Commission's list of inquiries. Screening: A board-on-board fence between us and our neighbor to the north. As for screening along the street, we do not find it necessary but we intend to plant shrubs within the next couple of years. As stated by at least two members of the commission, the Marina is just not noticeable when driving along Victoria st because one is too busy watching the road. This has always been a problem for us, in that people driving either north or south on Victoria st. don't notice our sign, much less the Marina! See attachment A. Improvements over time: 1) Planting of shrubs on roadside for screening from street. 2) Planting more trees on property. 3) Blacktopping parking area by Duplex where it becomes muddy in Spring. 4) Enlarging the deck on the lake side of the Marina. **In general we have proven to be very conscientious about cleaning up the Marina and making it attractive and will continue to do so in the future. please bear in mind, this is also our home. We very much want to develop and maintain an attractive appearance on our property. A major improvement this year is the purchase of 4 new pontoon boats and motors to replace the 4 old ones. This is a huge expense for us and one we could have done without if we didn't believe in continual improvement. Boundary Survey: See attachment B. These two surveys are not on the same scale but show the property lines of the entire property which has not changed since these were executed. Volume of cars and boats: See attachment C. On summer weekends and holidays, when the weather is warm and sunny, we have about 18 vehicles parked in our lot. On weekdays there is an average of 3 vehicles parked in the lot. Our live bait customers average about 3Ø per day on nice weekends; and about 8 on weekdays. Naturally, we would like to see this increase. We do no where near the volume of other bait stores in the area. In the winter we store our 4 pontoon boats plus 16 other boats in the parking lot.
