MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD SEPTEMBER 14, 1992 MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT - CONT. Jabbour expressed his frustration with the Task Force and thanked the City of Minnatrlsta for attending those meetings. He felt the City should revise their position and inform the DNR that they wish to deal directly with the DNR on the access Issue. He reported the ONR is preparing a drawing to present on the Maxwell Bay access at the September 28th meeting. He suggested to the DNR that they discuss the proposal with the neighbors. Qoetten asked If there were any other locations within Zone 1 that could be used for access. Jabbour explained the City has a promise from the DNR that the Maxwell Bay access will not proceed until the Task Force comes up with findings. He noted the City has made land available In Zone 1 for future access use. He added now there is a wiI Iing buyer and seller for this site. Callahan stated he was not under the Impression that the Task Force would be dealing with details of the access site. Jabbour stated he told the Task Force that the City Council of Orono will be adamant that Orono standards should apply on Orono land. He stated It is v*#ry embarrassing for the L.'ke Minnetonka community to ba portrayed In front of the State Legislators that out of 8,000 boats on the Lake, there is 148 available to the general public and the rest are private. He said his question to the LMCD is. "What hava you been doing in the last 30 years, and out of the 148 spaces, 67 are within Orono at North Ar', and they are planning an additional 60-70 within 2,000 feet. There is 152 miles of lakeshore, why is Orono paying more than its fair share?" He added because of foresight h. the early I970s by the City to have open land, and the pressure is on those that did the right thing. He suggested the Council express their desire to have the Task Force dissolved after it presents Its findings and let Orono deal directly with ONR.
