Planning & Zoning Administratc^^VMichael P. Gaffron <br />July 6, 1993 <br />Forest Arms - Siltation Problem Update <br />/V <br />Since the Forest Arms Homeowners Association came to an agreement with LMCD <br />regarding dock layout, and since the lake level is quite high (see note below), their interest in <br />a quick solution to removing the accumulated silt has apparently waned. However, staff has met <br />with Mr. and Mrs. Kalweit, on whose property the storm sewer discharges and who are equally <br />if not more so affected by the silt problem. The Kalweits are requesting that the City not let this <br />matter drop, as the storm water discharge affects them negatively, and the City does not have <br />an easement for that storm sewer. While the Kalweits have indicated a willingness to cooperate <br />with the City in solving this problem, they do not want it to continue forever. <br />otaff will be arranging a meeting with the Kalweits to include the Public Works Director <br />and City Engineer to further investigate options. Council will be kept updated on this matter. <br />Lake Level E.\tremely High <br />As of July 6th, the elevation of Lake Minnetonka was 930.28’, just short of its <br />highest levels in this century. The lake has exceeded the 930.00 elevation only eight or nine <br />times since the mid-1890 ’s. These high water levels have a potential for impact on a number <br />of neighborhoods in Orono, such as Baldur Park, Eastlake Street, and a few others.
