involved to better coordinate its efforts with other <br />agencies. With its limited on lake capacity it is working to <br />provide service when called on to address the most <br />significant problems. The City is also concerned with <br />maintenance of water quality as it relates to polluting run <br />off and clean up around the lake. <br />4. Please describe how your city is implementing the <br />recommendations contained in the "Report of the Lake <br />Minnetonka Task Force" (June, 1983). <br />The City of Orono is presently reviewing the Task Force <br />recommendations regarding implementation. Since Orono <br />possess one of the major access sites, the principal issue at <br />this point is consideration of the securing of parking as it <br />exists near the public access sites for off laka residents <br />including a large number of potential users from Orono. <br />(Enclosure A summaries progress to date.) <br />5. Identify any barriers you city has encountered in attempting <br />to implement the recommendations in the "Report of the Lake <br />Minnetonka Task Force." <br />The primary issues are Council's overall public safety <br />concerns on bosh the land and the lake. There has been <br />significant neighborhood concern regarding commitment of the <br />parking spots because of the attendant problems with off -site <br />parking related to the a;,cess including trespassing and <br />vandalism. As a part of this concern is the extent to which <br />an increased utilization of the lake may escalate existing <br />problems. <br />6. Please suggest proposals fo-: public participation procedures <br />as well as intergovernme;-tal planning and negotiations <br />procedures to resolve lake nanagement issues. <br />It is hoped the Task Force in the development of the <br />preliminary recommendations would work closely with LMCD on <br />the water surface issues and the individual communities on <br />the land use issues. Is is suggested the departure point for <br />attend land use could well be the marina licensing and <br />zoning ijr the various communities around the lake. (Please <br />refer to enclosure B for a topical outline of land use <br />issues.) <br />7. Please comment and submit any suggestions on the remaining <br />steps of the Council's review procedure. <br />It is proposed that as the adhoc report is developed that <br />LMCD and the Cities individually be allowed to respond to a <br />draft report in a meeting in the Lake Minnetonka area. <br />2 <br />
