5. <br />6. <br />6. Encourage parking in areas away from public access points by the users. <br />Safety, a pollution free lake, an enjoyable ^ser <br />experience, and aesthetic consideration affecting the <br />lakeshore, and its roads, and the watershed are basic <br />considerations. <br />Milfoil is a distinct LMCD problem and LMCD should have <br />control of it on the lake. <br />Land use regulation should remain under local control. <br />Orono's land use controls are the most protective and <br />restrictive ordinances on the lake. While it might be <br />desireable to have all communities agree with our standards, <br />we are not willing to part with local control of <br />lakeshore. Neither is it acceptable to us for the LMCD to <br />make decisions regarding dockage or other lake utilization <br />which in effect force Orono to depart from its land use <br />standards to accommodate parking, tree removal or hardcover <br />limitations. <br />As a city, we oppose creation of an additional tax or taxing <br />authority as we believe that regulation and <br />education/licensure can be implemented through assessments <br />shared by the lakeshore cities and the county and through <br />existing organizations already providing the training <br />programs. <br />While the present makeup of the LMCD board has inequities <br />built into it which are readily apparent to the different <br />communities, all members are essentially concerned with <br />••preserving the lake," and that is the sole reason for LMCD. <br />The suggestions that other agencies which are not directly <br />and immediately affected by the lake and which have other <br />purposes and priorities, plans for its future be given <br />positions on this board, is unacceptable to Orono.
