MINUTES OP THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OP MARCH 21, 1989 <br />LMCD REPORT CONTINUED <br />Acting Mayor Callahan asked lat the expected effectiveness <br />of harvesting the milfoil would be. Ms. Hurr answered that the <br />DNR would only allow 50% of the weed to be cut. This was due to <br />the fact that weeds beneficial to the Lakr would be harvested <br />along with the milfoil weed. If the LMCD can purchase three <br />harvesters, it is hoped that they can cut 500 acres twice per <br />year. Money is being directed toward finding a biological <br />solution to the milfoil problem. <br />Acting Mayor Callahan questioned whether the City should <br />release its contribution for the milfoil project at this time in <br />light of adequate funds being collected to purchase the <br />equipment. Bernhardson replied that it may be best to release <br />Orono's contribution when either Wayzata or Minnetonka make a <br />contribution and bring the Cities' fund total to $70,000. <br />LMCD SHORBLAND REGULATION-DRAFT <br />Ms. Hurr stated that the draft of the regulations will be <br />released shortly and the Lake Cities will have 5 or 6 months to <br />’-espond. The shoreland regulations, once completed, will become <br />a part of the LMCD's Comprehensive Plan. <br />MISCEIJJVNEOUS <br />There will be an upcoming dinner to recognize those persons <br />that worked on the "Save the Lake" project and the water patrol. <br />Ms. Hurr thanked the City for the letter of recommendation <br />supporting her reappointment to the Metropolitan Waste Control <br />Commission. <br />The Orono sewer project is continuing along County Roads 51 <br />and 19, Many business owners in Navarre have expressed concern <br />about the project affecting their business. The LMCD has <br />negoiated with the contractor and will allow the entire closing <br />of County Road 51 from County Road 135 to the North Arm Landing. <br />That portion should be completed in April and the portion of <br />County Road 19 would be completed by Memorial Day. The Navarre <br />business seemed satisfied with that schedule. The only factors <br />left to be determined, are the school buses and mail delivery. <br />PUBLIC COMMENTS <br />There were no comments from the Public. <br />ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT: <br />#1364 EDWIN GAGE <br />480 TONKAWA ROAD <br />CONDITIONAL USB PERMIT <br />RESOLUTION #2604* <br />It was moved by CounciImember Nettles, seconded <br />CounciImember Peterson, to adopt Resolution #2604, granting a <br />variance and conditional use permit to Edwin Gage, 480 Tonkawa <br />Road, for construction of a 4' wide platform walkway in the 0-75*
