With the exception of the <br />following item, no updates are provided in this report. <br />a. Lake Owasso Task Force <br />The Roseville City Council has appointed a task force to review lake-use regulations on <br />Lake Owasso. This task force was formed to help the Council resolve differences in no- <br />wake zones in Roseville and Shoreview. Currently, Roseville's ordinance requires a 300- <br />foot no-wake zone while Shoreview's ordinance requires a 150-foot no-wake zone. <br />Discussion of this issue has raised a number of concerns including active/passive uses of the <br />lake, environmentaUwater quality/turbidity concerns, water safety, water ski usage, and <br />noise. <br />The October GLWMO agenda included minutes from the task force through October 3, <br />1996. Task force minutes since that time are attached. Generally, the task force continues <br />to gather information from water quality experts, the Ramsey County Sheriff and other <br />agencies involved with lake regulations. <br />
