City Council <br />Exhibit D <br />Carman Bay Lake Improvement District CBLID Petition <br />PETITION FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A LAKE IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT <br />To the City of Orono and Hennepin County: The undersigned property owners are requesting <br />that the City of Orono establish the "Carman Bay Lake Improvement District" (CBLID) as <br />proposed below. The CBLID is needed to provide an equitable and stable ongoing funding for <br />Carman Bay residents to manage existing aquatic invasive species (AIS), such as Eurasian <br />Watermilfoil on Carman Bay and be positioned to deal with future AIS threats. Voluntarily <br />funded Bay wide treatments in past years including 2016 have been very successful in <br />controlling Eurasian Watermilfoil on Carman Bay. <br />Absent these treatments Eurasian Watermilfoil would dominate Carman Bay to the detriment of <br />property values, recreational water activities, water quality, general health and appearance. <br />The benefits to the property owners as well as outside users of Carman Bay from the proposed <br />CBLID would be improved recreational uses of the Bay, a return to its natural appearance, and <br />providing a healthy Bay for native aquatic species. The Carman Bay Lake Improvement District <br />is needed to provide an equitable and stable source of funding to help continually manage <br />towards a healthier Bay. <br />The proposed boundaries of the CBLID are properties with direct access to the Bay or its <br />coveslchannels. The properties defined as "Carman Bay" include all addresses from the west <br />side of the Bay beginning with 3229 Casco Circle, PID 2011723430003 around to the east side <br />of the bay ending with 2800 Pheasant Rd, PID 2111723320004. All of these properties would <br />benefit from the CBLID improvements. <br />The CBLID would have 7 directors, who would be elected at an annual meeting of the property <br />owners. The initial directors would be appointed by the City of Orono. It is requested that the <br />city of Orono provide administrative support and oversight for the CBLID. <br />Property Owner Full Name (only one name required): <br />Carman Bay Street Address: <br />Zip Code: <br />Yes, I agree to support the CBLID (signature here): _ <br />
