N <br />Lt') <br />LC) <br />Q To: New Brighton Park Board <br />From. Maurice H. Anders `~'~''S~~ectof of Parks and Recreation <br />z Re: Long Lake Planning Issues <br />z <br />0 <br />-The Long Lake Ea~`k Advisory Committee hasp at its last: two <br />~ meetings, been reviewing plans for development of the boat launch <br />~ on Long Lake. The. concept plan was recommended for approval and <br />~ has been sent to the New Brighton Park Board for consideration. <br />w Long Lake.Improvement Association members were present at the <br />z LLAC meeting and seemed to be generally .satisfied with the plan. <br />0 <br />d An operations plan for. the launch was <br />presented and-drew more <br />arc criticism than the development plan. I believe most of the <br />W,,~ ..objections to the operating plan have been addressed in the draft <br />~ that is being presented to the Park Board-for its consideration <br />~ on April 6th (see attached.). <br />w <br />The Long-Lake Surface Use Ordinance was the subject of a great <br />deal of discussion with members of the LLIA. .The primary area of <br />~ contention was the provision that upon opening the boat launch. <br />~ that waterskiing and powerboating are allowed only between noon <br />~; and 6:OOpm on weekends and holidays. <br />w In October 1978 the City Council created a study group to devise <br />~ a surface use ordinance for Long Lake. This group was formed by <br />~ the-city and .the ordinance subsequently adopted by .the city- <br />a because with the lake being located entirely within New Brighton <br />a boundaries, the ordinance is the city's responsibility.. The <br />z committee consisted of the following persons: Jerry Bensing, _ <br />o Take resident, Jim Borgstrom, lake resident, George Carlson, lake <br />~ resident, Park Board member, Ellen Dahl, Park Board member, <br />-w Al Levitan, lake resident, George Orning, lake resident, <br />~ DNR employee, and ex-officio Ken Simons and Maurie AndersonA <br />w <br />°C The committee studied ordinances from surrounding communities. <br />z sol3oits ~n~ut from the LLIA and ultimately recommended the <br />Q drdf Hance to the ~~ax1~ ~~~'~ ~~ S~ t~ Co~nc 1 ~ o r ~~.~ ~. x <br />Y consideration. <br />Q <br />a • <br />
