/> <br /> people for crossinq the highway. So my <br /> recommendation is in belief , and I �m looking for <br /> discussion and you can certainly educate me , is <br /> why we are not closing it off and considering <br /> vacating it and getting rid of it as far as a <br /> responsibility to the City of Orono . I can' t see <br /> the benefit of increasing cost to the city to <br /> promote that as a parking area . <br /> Councilman Frahm - perpetually. <br /> Councilman Grabek - However you can help me <br /> explain myself . <br /> Mayor Butler - just a moment please , I will get to <br /> you in a minute , Councilman Frahm? <br /> Councilman Frahm - I like to answer that , speaking <br /> for myself , Number 1 - Tnat is not my favorite spot <br /> for any kind of access to the lake ! However , we <br /> tossed around this political thing , and at this <br /> point of time it is a very sensitive issue , and in a <br /> couple of. months it probably won' t be a sensitive <br /> issue because we will know what is going on. <br /> However , right now there is some study group that <br /> is trying to determine , how, where , what and how we <br /> should use _land around the lake for making <br /> �ccesses for people . That is why I am holding <br /> off . I 'm saying vacate or not vacate as far as I <br /> am concerne� . At thi.s point in time , we all out <br /> here have been accused , all the cities out here , of_ <br /> trying tomake LakeMinnetonkaaprivatefacility. <br /> That has come from the DNR and it has come from the <br /> legislature and what have you and I don ' t want to <br /> further that opinion at this point in time <br /> politically. However , af_ter this task force has <br /> made its recommendations and find out what is <br /> going on there I can very easily make up my mind as <br /> to vacating or not vacating this thing and making <br /> it an access . At this time I can ' t . I would <br /> prefer not even consider vacating anything there <br /> at this point in time . I personally would like to <br /> vacate the whole thing , but T do have some <br /> political thing I have to look at that could affect <br /> a lot of other things we are trying to do . <br /> Councilman Grabek - Let me answer your comments <br /> then . Let me say that if there is a political <br /> atmosphere that exists with the Task Force then <br /> lets first publically and directly offer the DNR <br /> the property. <br /> Councilman Frahm- I don ' t want them to have the <br /> property. <br />
