ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL— APRIL 30, 2001 10 <br /> Councilmember Larson stated they could not change the ordinance without losing grandfathered <br /> DNR status. <br /> Mayor Probst stated the new state requirements are less restrictive. <br /> Mr. Filla stated then they should look at enforcing it. <br /> Mayor Probst stated in order to make it enforceable they need to be close to defining a zone. <br /> Councilmember Larson stated the upper limit is 40 mph so something needs be done there as <br /> well. He noted they should pick a number that satisfies the ordinance, mark the points and the <br /> center shallow area. He added they could start out with a small number and see if it makes a <br /> difference. <br /> Mr. Lynch stated the recent recodification adopts the Minnesota rules. <br /> Mayor Probst stated he would like to suggest they ask the Lake Johanna Association to take a <br /> look at this and come back with some recommendations. He noted he does not think it <br /> appropriate to do something based on the request of one resident. <br /> Councilmember Rem stated the request is to enforce the city's ordinance. <br /> Councilmember Aplikowski stated she would like to have staff look into the costs. <br /> Councilmember Larson stated he agrees that the question is how to enforce this. <br /> MOTION: Councilmember Aplikowski moved and Councilmember Grant seconded a motion <br /> to direct staff to investigate the cost of buoys for Lake Johanna and to seek input <br /> from the Ramsey County water patrol on this issue. The motion carried <br /> unanimously (5-0). <br /> E. Disposition of 2000 General Fund Operating Surplus <br /> Mr. Post stated this is an item from the last Worksession. He noted staff seeks the direction of <br /> the council at this time, since the council could not take action at that meeting. <br /> Mayor Probst stated they seem to be split between alternatives one and two and he would favor <br /> alternative two. <br /> Councilmember Rem stated she would also agree with alternative two after reflection and further <br /> investigation. <br /> Councilmember Grant stated that a lot of what they are calling surplus is essentially interest <br /> income from not doing the Ingerson Road project. <br />
