and Bill Packer. Members absent were: Dave Moran and Peter
Patchin. City manager David Unmacht was also absent.
The minutes from the previous meeting were read and
approved as read unanimously.
The first order of business was an update of the Eurasian
/- Milfoil treatment. The Watershed and the DNR are
comfortable with the results of the treatment. Tom discussed
the petition the PLA has sent out to the lake shore owners.
Bill felt we should look deeper into what other monies the
Watershed may have tucked away. Both John W. and Dave V.
will be attending the Watershed budget meeting on August 25,
and can ask some questions then.
The nelt order of business was a report from John W. of his
discussion with Bill Dilks. The Watershed has set up a
committee to look into up-stream ponding and wetland
quality. John W. and Dave V. are on the committee as well as
representatives from Sutton, Spring and Fish lakes. Their
charge is to put together a capital improvement program as
well as putting together programs and projects, and looking
for other sources of funding.

Bill P. wanted a little more time to look over the
job description and the Resolution from the City of Eagan. If
there were any changes to be made it would be passed on to
Dave Unmacht. Bill P. made a motion that it should be stated
that the Stormwater Utility fee will be used exclusively for the
projects listed and others that would fall in the category of
Stormwater improvements. It was second and past
unanimously. Dave Unmacht felt some of us should be at the
City Councils budget meeting on Sept. 3 to show support for
the Stormwater Utility fee and answer any questions.
The next order of business was to discuss the concern some
lake shore owners have with erosion and frost heave due to
the higher lake level.
The next order of business was to discuss the fact that the
DNR wants to by land at the marina for a 3rd access. It was
felt that as an advisory committee we should have some input
on the placement of another access. There was a general
agreement that the marina would not be a good spot due to
lack of parking space. There was some discussion as to other
options for an access. The meeting was adjourned at 8:30
p.m.
