Terms on the Li�CD Board run from <br /> Minnetonka <br /> Steve Johnson February 1 St through January 31 St of the following year.

There is <br /> Dennis Klohs <br /> Minnetonka Beach no applicable term limits for Board members. <br /> Jeff Morris <br /> Excelsior <br /> 8���o�So� Because the application of the LMCD ortlinances are inherently unique and it takes some period <br /> Victoria of time for new Board members to come up to speed, it woultl be difficult and undesirable to have <br /> Kelsey Page <br /> Greenwood all Board member's terms expire at the same time, possibly ending up with a completely new <br /> Richard Siakel Board or a mostl new Board. The LMCD has, therefore, re uested the 14 cities to sta er the <br /> Shorewood Y q 99 <br /> Herb Suerth member's terms by appointing five members the first year, five the second year, and four the third <br /> Woodland ear 5 5 4 We realize that some of the cities refer to make all their a ointments earl <br /> Y � - - )� P PP Y Y; <br /> however, this is not consistent with the LMCD enabling act.
