ORONO REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING HELD OCTOBER 8, 1990 PARR COMMISSION C014MENTS CONTINUED The Park Commission has been working with Fullerton • Properties to build a bike trail in connection with Shadowood Farm development at County Road 6 and Willow Road. This is at the intersection of two trails designated on the conceptual plan. They also feel it could be used to connect with the school property and used to bring people from the Dickey Lane area, Sugarwoods area and the Shadowood area to the schools. There would be Willow Road and Old Orchard Road to cross. This makes an important area for the bike trails to begin. Callahan asked if Flint was satisfied with the current proposition with Fullerton. Flint replied there have been several problems. The Park Commission was brought into discussions very late. Callahan asked Flint to wait until developer was present for discussion of the matter before Council. 5. Long Lake - The Park Commission is involved with this lake because of Summit Beach Park. There are many jurisdictions involved in the management of the lake. The Freshwater Biological Institute made a presentation to the Park Commission regarding actions that could be taken to prevent milfoil in the lake. The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District also made a presentation regarding a study they are undertaking on watershed. The "Save Our Lake - Orono /Long Lake Partnership" also had several members represented at the Park Commission meeting. No milfoil is known to exist in Long Lake and the Park Commission will be working with these groups to preserve the • quality of the lake. The City of Long Lake has adopted an ordinance to restrict the use of jet skis on the Lake. This will restrict the time they can be used and also prevent them from coming within a certain distance of swimming facilities. That ordinance is currently being reviewed by the DNR which also must approve such an ordinance. The Park Commission has approved the concept but has not seen the final language of the ordinance. When they see this, it will be brought before the Council with their recommendations.
