OLD BUSINESS <br />6.1 Remediation of BMP #1 Site <br /> <br />6.1.1 Background: Q: Board members expressed concern about the likelihood that future construction in <br />Shoreview that is within and near the Karth Lake watershed could add more runoff and nutrients. This could <br />increase the water level and pollution of Karth Lake. Board Members thought the lake levels have varied higher <br />since the townhouses were built east of Lexington Ave. Board Members have observed significant water flow <br />into Karth Lake from the holding pond east of Lexington and Karth Lake. <br /> <br /> 6.1.2 Report from Kyle Axtell: What controls are in place to prevent an increase in Karth Lake water level and <br />nutrient load caused by new construction in Shoreview? <br /> <br />6.2 Progress Report on Protection of Pump and Control Panel <br /> <br />6.2.1 Background: At our January meeting Linda reported that she has seen people climbing on the pump <br />station in the lake. Todd reported that the City found the entire pump station turned upside down. The Board <br />recommended if anyone sees someone disturbing the pump, they should call the Ramsey County Sheriff at 651- <br />767-0640 and observed that the Sheriff’s job would be easier if there was a “No Trespassing” sign on the pump. <br />The Board recommended that the City put a “No Trespassing” sign on the pump station. At our February <br />meeting David said that Jeff Frid, Public Works Superintendent, will bolt a sign on the pump structure that says, <br />“Warning, Stay Back.” Board members again emphasized that the Sheriff’s job of responding to calls would be <br />easier if there was also a “No Trespassing” sign. Then it would be clear that disturbing it was not allowed by <br />the city. Action: David will look into adding that sign. <br />
