Lakeshore owner outreach and education. Susan Johnson and Joel Gerich. <br />4.1.1 Background: The KLIDB has reached out to KLID members in the past with flyers, events and door-knocking to <br />increase awareness of what the KLIDB does, provide information to assist members in managing their shoreline and to <br />recruit new board members. Several lakeshore properties have or are soon expected to have new owners that have not <br />benefited from past communications and an update on the lake’s current status to continuing owners would be helpful. <br />Action: Report on flyer sent to KLID members in the fall of 2023. Plan for a Love Your Lake party hosted by Susan <br />Johnson in the first quarter of 2024. Discuss other possible communications ideas for 2024. <br /> <br />4.2. Karth Lake water level modeling and management process progress report. Renée Marino <br />4.2.1 Background: Hypothesis: a revision to the pump management policy can reduce water level bounce (i.e., range of <br />high and low levels), which can improve lake quality and its environment while appropriately mitigating risk of damage to <br />shoreline properties. <br />Action: Provide updates. See attachments. <br /> <br />4.3. Bylaws review and possible modification. Susan Johnson <br />4.3.1 Background: A preliminary review of the bylaws questions who is a member of KLID, how elections should be run <br />going forward and who can vote. <br />Action: Provide updates, if any. <br /> <br />4.4. Open meeting laws update. Susan Johnson <br />4.4.1 Background: Susan reached out to David Perrault for guidance on process for involving board between meetings for <br />urgent issues that arise between meetings. <br />Action: Provide updates, if any. <br /> <br />5. NEW BUSINESS <br />5.1 Plan process for next election of KLID Board Members and Officers whose terms have expired. Board <br />5.1.1 Background: Three board member terms end in 2024: Aisha Elmquist, Renée Marino and Joel Gerich. As with past <br />years, the City of Arden Hills will mail a letter to all KLID members announcing the election and asking for volunteers to <br />be candidates for open positions. <br />Action: Edit last year’s letter (attached) as a group and decide on other aspects of the 2024 election process. <br /> <br />
