VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />PUBLIC COMMENTS <br />Gabriel Jabbour, 985 Tonkawa Road, stated he is here tonight to speak about the fire boat and the <br />Sheriff s dock as well as to express his frustration and borderline anger about how this issue is being <br />handled. <br />Jabbour stated he personally assisted and obtained the funds to construct the present fire station, the <br />satellite fire station and helped negotiate the 20 -year contract with Long Lake. Jabbour stated 15 years <br />ago it was his idea to come up with a place to have a dock. The Hennepin County Water Patrol had a <br />very difficult time in 2015 in removing people off the lake and that he was the one that came up with the <br />idea for a satellite station. Jabbour stated his preference was that Hennepin County would purchase Sailer <br />World, which did not occur, and that a temporary intermediate solution was arrived at. <br />Page 1 of 26 <br />
