rPL <br />- <br />Nib <br />2) the County letter in 1973 clearly understanding the need for a site on the water for the <br />above activities. See attached. <br />That site mentioned in the letter has served and is still faithfully serving the lake and the <br />private sector. It is the only site on the lake that can handle large commercial/industrial <br />activities and very will no longer be available. The site has been rezoned as a high density <br />residential, and I am planning to develop it. The business model around the country is to have <br />smaller barges to be transported to a body of water and joined together after launch. That's the <br />future of services on the lake. The county publicly stated, in a meeting, that the barges would <br />take less than 10 minutes to unload. I have operated marinas on the lake for over 35 years and <br />can tell you this is false and shows how staff don't have a clue about barges. <br />Conclusion <br />The North Arm Landing project does not take any of the above into account. <br />The two DNR accesses on the lake prohibit barge activity If they cannot manage and be a <br />good custodian of the present activities in North Arm when the zoo comes to town who is <br />going to manage it. How are services going to be provided to the lake? <br />Who is protecting Minnetonka? <br />Gabriel JABBOUR - FOUNDER <br />Lake Guardian <br />185 <br />
