,\ . e e ~ ~ EN HILLS MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor City Council FROM: Joseph Lynch, City Administrator SUBJECT: Lake Johanna Surface Water Use Ordinance DATE: June 27, 2001 ENC: Lake Johanna Surface Water Use Ordinance City Attorney Letter Draft Changes to Ordinance 330 Ordinance 181 Backl!round At your regular City Council meeting on June 11, 2001, you held a public information meeting regarding the City's lake surface use regulations for Lake Johanna; specifically, Chapter 12 of the City Code. Based upon a citizen complaint about the lack of buoys indicating the 250 foot distance from shore for the enforcement of the 5 m.p.h. speed zone, the Council did desire to hear public comment on the enforcement of that regulation. The direction given to the City Attorney was to draft changes to the ordinance reflecting either change the mandatory placement of the buoys to permissive language or removal of the section. Enclosed within is a copy of the draft changes to Chapter 12 (Lake Surface Use Regulations) of the City Code with the changes to section 12-19 making it permissive for the City to place buoys in Lake Johanna and enforce the 250 foot 5 m.p.h. speed zone. A copy of the letter received from City Attorney Filla is enclosed for your reference and information as well as a copy of our complete Chapter 12 (Lake Surface Use Regulations). Those portions recommended for deletion are shown in strikeout and those portions that are new to the ordinance are shown in italics. Also included is a copy of Ordinance 181 which is the original ordinance regulating the surface use of the waters at Lake Johanna including the lake zoning map referred to in the original language. Those portions of the original ordinance with the specific section in Chapter 12 are noted.
