Staff is directed to prepare an <br />appropriate resolution. All voted aye. Motion passed. <br />(il3)LAKB OSE COMIIITTEE <br />Bernhardson indicated that Councilmember Callahan had been <br />appointed Chair of the Lake Use Committee, and suggested that he <br />may wish to update the Council of the Committee's progress. <br />Callahan reported that the four members appointed at <br />Council’s May 28, 1991, meeting (Callahan, Goetten, Jabbour, and <br />JoEllen Hurr) held a brief meeting to discuss further <br />appointments to the Committee. It was agreed that Charlie Kelley <br />and Charles Schroeder from the Planning Commission should be <br />talced to serve on the Committee and both accepted. Callahan <br />said, "The Committee then discussed what our main focus might be. <br />Wa determined that the LMCD, the Shoreland Rogulations, and <br />Marina licensing and operation policies v/ere some of the issues <br />we would like to address. We scheduled a meeting for June 18, <br />1991, which will be the first meeting of the full Committee. At <br />that meeting we intend to draft a general purpose statement for <br />the Committee. VJe also asked to have the City Administrator <br />attend that meeting to discuss with us the progress the City is <br />making on the Shoreland Regulations." <br />Goetten added that the primary concern of, and purpose for, <br />the Lake Use Committee is to address the environmental issues <br />that have an impact on Lake Minnetonka. <br />Jabbour said, "Management with ecology in mind." <br />Mayor Peterson thanked Charlie Kelley for agreeing to serve <br />on the Lake Use Committee. <br />Jabbour stated that he had recently talked with the Mayor of <br />the City of Tonka Bay who expressed concern regarding the <br />increase in the LMCO's financial levy to the 14 Lake Minnetonka <br />Communities. Jabbour stated that the Mayor would be calling a <br />Qi^^^ing to discuss that issue and that he believes that the <br />cities need to have a substantial upper hand on what the ^CO <br />does with their budgeting process. The Tonka Bay Council’s idea <br />of a solution to the problem is to entirely eliminate the LMCO. <br />- 7 - <br />>—J
