Mr. Moy noted that the amount of <br />traffic on that part of the lake impeded his personal in that lane and his <br />personal access to the lake by boat. Mr. Moy opined that water skiing <br />started as early as 7:05 a.m. on a Saturday, and those with smaller <br />boats had a hard time retaining normality due to the amount of very <br />fast and repetitive ski boat traffic. Mr. Moy advised that he'd lived on <br />the lake for six years, and was concerned with the increasing amount <br />of traffic on the lake, making it difficult for trolling for fish in this <br />natural habitat area; and asked that the City Council deny the ski <br />jump. <br />Mayor Klausing recognized the increasing intensity of use on the lake, <br />from his historical perspective and observations; and questioned Mr. <br />Moy if he thought it was related to the ski jump andlor slalom course, <br />or just water skiers in general. <br />� <br />� <br />
