And the 250 foot <br />World Water <br />Ski Union perimeter, in and of itself, further reduces the operating <br /> area of this lake to such a degree that it causes congest- <br /> ion and safety problems; not releives them. I refer you <br /> to the comment in the minutes of the 08/10/87 meeting <br />. where Mark Peterson indicates he feels it is unsafe to <br /> ski safely when sailboats are on the lake. <br /> cont'd. <br /> - <br /> ------ <br />
