MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, January 11, 2010 <br />7:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br />  Page  <br />10  <br />  <br />   <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT <br /> <br />Murphy commented that he drove by Dr. Ebert’s house and that the gates look great. <br /> <br />McMillan noted the LMA is advertising for a milfoil free Lake Minnetonka, which in her opinion is <br />probably not going to be achieved even with the chemical treatments. <br /> <br />Gabriel Jabbour stated in his opinion he does not feel the LMCD should be treating the whole lake until <br />they determine whether the chemicals are truly safe. The LMCD is not set up to levy money and are <br />being requested to fund this program when they cannot afford it, particularly in this poor economy. <br /> <br />White stated the cost of chemicals keeps increasing in price and that the milfoil has never been 100 <br />percent eradicated on lakes that have been treated. <br /> <br />Jabbour expressed concern that the chemicals in the lake also are harmful to household pets that may <br />swim in the lake. <br /> <br />CITY ENGINEER’S REPORT <br /> <br />Kellogg stated he has nothing to report. <br /> <br />CITY ADMINISTRATOR’S REPORT <br /> <br />*6.
