<br />. <br /> <br />City ofCenterville <br />Council Meetings <br />March 27. 2002 <br /> <br />Mr. Perry indicated they do return on occasion and improve on last year's nest. He then <br />indicated he had been out at the island before the meeting and saw 14 herons working on <br />nesting sites. <br /> <br />Mr. Lindner read through the information provided to Council. <br /> <br />Mr. Lindner complained that approval of the no wake ordinance would reduce the <br />recreation area of the lake to 235 acres and he thinks that is setting up the lake for failure. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra asked Mr. Lindner to define failure. . <br /> <br />Mr. Lindner commented that the City would be congesting all users to one end of the <br />lake. <br /> <br />Mr. Lindner read more of his paperwork and suggested Council was not hearing the voice <br />of the lakeshore owners. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra read a report of her conversation with Chuck Jolmson from Rice <br />Creek Watershed District. <br /> <br />Council Member Travis asked whether the Peltier Lake Association had met since the <br />meeting on March 4, 2002. <br /> <br />Mr. Lindner indicated that there had not been time to meet because of all the city <br />meetings in Lino Lakes and Centerville. <br /> <br />Council Member Nelson said she agreed that Council had asked the Association to come <br />back with a proposal. She then explained that she would like to see the no wake line as <br />far south as possible making this a compromise for her. <br /> <br />Mr. Richard Thompson of 1657 Peltier Lake Drive indicated that many people spoke at <br />the Association meeting and, when asked for input, the Association determined it would <br />be nice to use the bog poles as the no wake line. It was also discussed that those residents <br />at the northeast end of the lake may not like having the no wake zone in front of their <br />docks and that is why angling the line was suggested. He then commented that the <br />experts recommend the line go straight across in the interest of public safety and he is <br />fine with that. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated she was surprised to know that Clearwater Creek drains <br />into Peltier Lake as well as many other tributaries. <br /> <br />Quit Evis addressed Council and indicated he lives on Lake Owasso and explained that <br />after wasting taxpayer dollars Ramsey County determined that the people best able to <br />manage the lake are the lake shore owners. <br /> <br />Page 7 of 18 <br />
