.-( <br /> `) <br /> l <br /> • of k <br /> River <br /> March 18, 1999 <br /> Larry Kramka <br /> MN DNR Division of Waters <br /> 4140 Thielman Lane <br /> Suite 203 <br /> St. Cloud, MN 56302 <br /> Subject: Wild and Scenic River District <br /> Dear Mr. Kramka, <br /> The City of Elk River is proposing revisions to the DNR's draft Wild and Scenic River <br /> Ordinance to make it compatible with its Comprehensive Plan. The current Wild and <br /> • Scenic River Ordinance economically precludes the city from providing urban services to <br /> certain areas where it feels these facilities would be beneficial to both the orderly <br /> development of the city and water quality. In addition,the city is proposing revisions to <br /> the Wild and Scenic River District boundary so it excludes two areas of commercial <br /> development that existed prior to the District's creation. <br /> The City Engineer surveyed a new proposed boundary for the District through Sections 2, <br /> 3, 10, & 11, T 32N, R 26W that excludes one of the areas of commercially developed <br /> property that was in existence prior to the Wild and Scenic River District being <br /> established. The other commercial area in the Wild and Scenic River District is Elk <br /> River's historic downtown. The city is proposing that the Wild and Scenic River District <br /> is forty (40) feet from the ordinary high water mark through Section 34, T33N,R26W, so <br /> it excludes the historic downtown area. <br /> Both the city's revised ordinance and a map depicting the boundary change through <br /> Sections 2, 3, 10, & 11 T32N, R26W are included with this letter. An additional map of <br /> Section 34, T33N,R26W is also attached. <br /> The city contends that its proposed changes to the Wild and Scenic River Ordinance and <br /> district boundary do as good of a job as the current ordinance and district boundary in <br /> regards to aesthetic issues along the Mississippi and an even better job of dealing with <br /> • water quality and quantity than the DNR's version. The following discussion points out <br /> the proposed changes and the city's rationale: <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 490 • Elk River, MN 55330 • TDD & Phone: (612) 441-7420 • Fax: (612) 441-7425 <br />
