Page 2 of 2 <br /> * Gary Barott cailed me to ask if the Council has any interest in his property at $300,000. <br /> If not, he is going to consider listing the property fior sale. I indicated that I had mentioned <br /> the availability of the parcel to Council, but that there did not seem to be a lot of interest at <br /> that price. Mr. Barott said he could see where people may think the price is high, but the <br /> property has 200 feet of lakeshore. If anyone wants to place this item on a future agenda, <br /> once again please let me know. I do know that Wayne LeBlanc would I+ke to see the City <br /> purchase this property. As I have mentioned previousiy, i do not think the City should <br /> purchase property with the hopes of being ab{e to install a trail around the lake until we <br /> know the feasibility of such a prosect. The City can always condemn the property in the <br /> future, if it becomes a necessity. <br /> * Hanna from the Hugonian called me to express concern that the City was not taking a <br /> defensive approach to stop the RCWD from plugging the culvert that runs between <br /> Centervilfe and Peftier Lake. Hanna indicated that the Design Team vision was to have the <br /> lakes connected with a bridge. I explained to Hanna that the RCWD was trying to prolong <br /> the effectiveness of their treatment of the water in Centervitle Lake with alum. This <br /> treatment cost approximately $80,000 and is only effective for a few years. The culvert <br /> befinreen the lakes aliows water to flow back and forth freely, thereby reducing the water <br /> quaiity in Centerville Lake. Once again, there has not been a feasibility study conducted <br /> that would show whether a bridge over the two lakes would be beneficial. Currently there is <br /> milfoi{ in Peltier Lake and not in Centervil{e Lake. f further explained that plugging tf�e <br /> culvert is a reversibte process and is a short term project, whereas finding the funding for <br /> constructing a bridge that would s�an across a canal between the two lakes is more than <br /> likely a long term project. <br /> * Enjoy your weekend! There's no snow in the forecast. <br /> 11 /5/99 <br />
