Consider 5/3/89 Recreation Board Minutes <br /> ( It was the consensus of the Park and Recreation Commission that with the <br /> addition of Marilyn VanPatten to the list of members present, the minutes <br /> were acceptable. <br /> 4. Public Mike <br /> 4.1 Orono Lake Homeowners Association <br /> The Orono Lake Homeowners Association were represented by Sheridyn <br /> McClain, Cindy Plant and Bonnie Rule. The Association presented a <br /> proposed ordinance for regulating boat traffic on Lake Orono. This <br /> ordinance was in the form of a survey taken by the Association. A <br /> • copy is attached. <br /> The Park and Recreation Commission discussed this survey and agreed <br /> with the homeowners that regulation of boat traffic is needed. One <br /> item of disagreement was that the Commission did not think it was <br /> possible to limit the number of boats on the lake or limit the <br /> number of trailer parking spaces. <br /> The result of the discussion is that the Commission would like City <br /> Staff to start the process for developing an ordinance similar to <br /> the one presented, excluding the boat and parking limits. This <br /> ordinance should of course comply with existing State and Local laws <br /> and be developed according to City rules governing such ordinances <br /> IIIincluding any public hearings if necessary. The hope would be to <br /> have this ordinance, along with proper signage, in effect by the <br /> 1990 boating season. <br /> Tom Tyler also addressed this issue relating some of Big Lake's <br /> experiences. He said that Big Lake's ordinance has brought in more <br /> frequent Sherburne County Water Patrol because they now have strict <br /> rules to enforce when patroling. <br />
