Soderberg tain basic requirements, determined that the MDNR standard of one victoria car -trailer space per 20 acres of water (700 for the La,-,-) was Carl H Weisser Excelsior reasonable for Lake Minnetonka In addition it determined that those spaces already meeting these standards could be supplemented by other near -by parking that also meet these standards when set aside specifically for the use of the boating public. The District has developed these standards which the MDNR has ac- cepted for the use of the lakeshore municipalities who wish to participate in the program by designating long-term car -trailer parking spaces on a seasonal basis near existing public launciiing facilities. These spaces may not be restricted by a permit process. These spaces, when accepted under the standards, will be applied toward the 700 spaces required and wall be used to help determine the need for development of further public access on the Lake. The District has been charged with the responsibility to monitor the program. Thank you for your consideration.
