Nybeck, EXECU(IVE DIRECTOf3 <br /> February 23, 2012 <br /> Mr. Michael Tolliver <br /> and/or Current Resident <br /> 1098 Loma Linda Avenue <br /> Orono, MN 55364 <br /> RE: Site #629, North Arm Bay <br /> Dear Mr. Tolliver or Current Resident: <br /> In the summer of 2011, the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD) staff conducted <br /> lake-wide inspections of docks and watercraft storage on Lake Minnetonka. Your residential <br /> site was identified as one that was potentially not in full compliance with one or more LMCD <br /> Ordinances. The LMCD Board of Directors has opted to initially pursue a course of education <br /> and voluntary compliance for all sites so identified. The intent of this letter is to provide you <br /> with relevant and current information to allow you to assess your dock and watercraft storage <br /> configuration, and to take steps to bring them into compliance, if necessary, during the 2012 <br /> boating season and beyond. <br /> Your location was identified as one that mav have had more restricted watercraft stored at your <br /> site than what was allowed within your dock use area (please refer to the first and third bullet <br /> points that are noted on paQe two). The LMCD website and staff are resources you can use to <br /> help answer any questions you have. Chapter 2 of the LMCD Code, "Regulations of <br /> Structures within the Lake," is the relevant Chapter in answering your questions. To assist <br /> you, copies of various sections of this Chapter are enclosed for your review, which can also be <br /> found on the LMCD web site at www.lmcd.ora, under Rules and Regulations . The following is <br /> offered to help summarize the general rules and regulations: <br /> What is a restricted watercraft? <br /> A restricted watercraft is defined as any boat or vessel for use on or stored on the public <br /> waters on the lake except for unrestricted watercraft. An unrestricted watercraft (Sec. 1.02, <br /> Subd. 55c) is defined as a boat or vessel that is: <br /> 1) 16' or less in length and unmotorized; or <br /> 1) 16' or less in length and which uses a motor of 10 horsepower or less; or <br /> 2) 20' or less in length and unmotorized, and propelled solely by human power. <br /> Most personal watercraft (Jet Ski, Wave Runner, or similar) would qualify as a restricted <br /> watercraft (due to horsepower). A sailboat longer than 16' (motorized or un-motorized) would <br /> also qualify as a restricted watercraft. <br /> ��� W��b Page Address http:Uw�vwJrT�cd.urg • E-�1iai1 A�_ldress: Imrd��zlmcd.ory <br /> io�;- ����c�-�:���„�,��r�.a��P To protect and preserve Lake Minnetonka. <br />
