r <br />* <br />To:Orono Mayor and Councilmembers <br />From:Lili McMillcUi. LMCD representative <br />COUN'CfL <br />Date:February 20, 1998 <br />Subject: LMCD update <br />2 3 1998 <br />crn^cr oro MO <br />Here is a brief review of LMCD actions during the past month: <br />1. Application submitted for $5 million grant from the LCMR: <br />-project is for land acquisition and development of 1-2 public access <br />sites on the lake that would provide 100-200 quality off-street <br />car/trailor parking spaces. <br />-this project is to be modeled after the successful completion of the <br />Maxwell Bay public access. Land acquisition and development is to <br />be consistent with the goals and objectives outlined in the 1992 <br />LMCD Lake Access Task Force Report. Mayor Jabbour helped assist <br />in creating a Memorandum of Understanding between the DNR and <br />LMCD that calls for the city governments to be consulted and fully <br />involved in the review and approval of any proposed public access <br />site. <br />2. Water Quality Report: <br />-John Barton presented the results of the 97 water testing season. <br />Poor water quahty in the west end bays of the lake appears to be <br />due to both watershed runoff and internal loading. <br />-attached are the phosphorus and chloride concentration graphs. <br />3. Proposed Personal Watercraft Legislation: <br />-attached is the board's response to pending state legislation. <br />J
