The owners 8 I give out our personal phone numbers to the neighbors, so if there <br /> is ever a situatian that needs our attention, I wili drive ou#to Long Lake and <br /> remedy it right away out of respect to the ne+ghbors. <br /> With reference to our Property on Big Island, it is ironic that the very things that <br /> are ou�ined in the City"s proposed ordinance, are al{happening even more so in <br /> aur badc yard af our rental property. On most weekends our guests endure loud <br /> objectionable rnusic and bass booming fram hundreds of boats tied together. The <br /> drinking, drug use, foul language, nudity, relieving themselves over board ar up <br /> on #he island's p�blic land and on the private properly of the Island property <br /> owners, trash left behind etc., makes this a much bigger, serious issus ta the <br /> property owners on the island. <br /> Complaining does no good. When partying boats sees the water patrol coming, <br /> they put away their drinks and drugs, get drsssed, and tum off the foud offensive <br /> music. Water Patrol checks for life jackets, and asks that they keep it down,As <br /> soan as t�e water�atroC�s out of s�te they resume their toud partying! <br /> Shpuldn't tha focus be an Cruisers Cove instead of VRBOs where the home- <br /> owner has more at stake? Not to meniion the Image of Lake Minnetonka to enjoy <br /> the l�ke safely and withaut the free for ali reputation thet is Cruisers Cove? <br /> These rental properties are short-term rentals, and seasonal. To place <br /> unnecessary and imposs'sble oniinances againsf these praperties is unfair and <br /> will cause a hardship. <br /> Since VRBOs are also praperties we use for enjoyment,we ensure tha#they are <br /> kept in very good condition, dean 8� enjoyable. We take pride in ownership! <br /> Piease reconsider what these ordinances will da to an in industry that thrives on <br /> tourism, and how this irnpacts not only the rental owner, but the city as a whole. <br /> Thank you for your cansideration, <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Jody Laughkin <br /> Michael Laughlin <br />
