7. Variance Requests The applicant has requested four variances to the Boat Ramp Code: 1. Section 15-605(b)(8) (companion dock width). The Code limits the width of the companion dock to four (4) feet. The applicant proposes a dock width of twenty-four (24) feet for the mooring area and five (5) feet for the access walkway. EPD supports this request. 2. Section 15-605(b)(9) (sheltered structures). The Code states, “boat houses and other similar sheltered structures proposed to be built in conjunction with a companion boat mooring dock are prohibited.” The applicant proposes a gazebo at the landward end of the companion dock. EPD supports this request.

8. Variance Requests 3. Section 15-605(b)(14) (letter of credit). The Code requires, “the applicant to post a one-year irrevocable letter of credit, in favor of Orange County, in the amount of ten (10) percent of the assessed value of the boat ramp facility site...” The applicant proposes to provide a cash escrow, in the amount of ten (10) percent of the cost to construct the boat ramp facility, multiplied by 125%, in lieu of the required letter of credit. EPD supports this request. 4. Section 15-605(b)(20) (no more than one ramp per subdivision). The Code states, “there shall be no more than one (1) boat ramp per subdivision...” The applicant has stated that since the existing boat ramp is on an interior man- made ski lake, and the proposed boat ramp is on Lake Hancock and that navigation between them is not possible, that the request for a variance is reasonable. EPD supports this request.
