CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION February 4,2013 <br /> APPROVED <br /> 46 explained that he has had conversations with both those groups. The DNR may require a <br /> 47 permit after further review and the RCWD will be reviewing and responding on the <br /> �-' 48 situation also. The mayor remarked on the footings shown in picture. <br /> 49 <br /> 50 The council heard from John and Linda Elliot, 2001 Otter Lake Drive. Ms. Elliot had in <br /> 51 hand the DNR guidelines on docks and permits which she read. Historically in 1999 a <br /> 52 developer came to the city and asked for permission to build a culvert in the channel for a <br /> 53 road to Oak Brook Peninsula. The residents didn't know until markers showed up and <br /> 54 then concern arose. The DNR, RCWD and city were contacted and a suit was filed. The <br /> 55 bridge was not allowed; it had to span the channel and that's what was ultimately built. <br /> 56 Most of the same residents live in the area. Ms. Elliot recalled Mr. Johnson's statement <br /> 57 to the council that he knows he cannot build a bridge. Even though he is calling what he <br /> 58 built docks, they are a bridge in essence because they are too close to allow safe passage <br /> 59 of boats through the channel. Mr. Johnson bought his land assuming he had access to all <br /> 60 the land but he doesn't. He shouldn't be allowed to start this construction because she <br /> 61 fears it won't be stopped. She wants him to be instructed to move the docks to an area <br /> 62 where they don't obstruct. <br /> 63 <br /> 64 The mayor suggested that there are limitations on what the city can do in this case but he <br /> 65 believes the city can put together a resolution that asks the RCWD and DNR and any <br /> 66 other appropriate entity to strictly enforce existing guidelines. Community Development <br /> 67 Director Grochala suggested that staff be directed to write a letter to those agencies; the <br /> 68 council concurred. <br /> 69 <br /> 70 2. Emerald Ash Borer Project—Country Lakes Park—Environmental Coordinator <br /> 71 Asleson reviewed the inventory of ash trees on public property(map included in staff <br /> 72 report). He offered some history on where Emerald Ash Borer(EAB) started in the <br /> 73 country in 2003 and where it has traveled. He was happy to report that the City did not <br /> 74 do a major planting of ash trees as some other cities did and therefore there is more <br /> 75 variety of trees. He talked about the areas in Lino Lakes that do have numbers of ash <br /> 76 trees and noted those areas that may be treatable. The map he is showing only relates to <br /> 77 trees on public property; of course there are many, many more on private land. As staff, <br /> 78 he is looking at ways that will be appropriate to respond for this city and is keeping <br /> 79 informed on the matter. Since it hasn't been detected yet, he wouldn't recommend <br /> 80 treatment, however, that will be an option for private property owners and the city. He <br /> 81 would like to begin removing some of the trees that wouldn't be missed as much. Mayor <br /> 82 Reinert recommended that staff utilize the city newsletter to get the word out—keep <br /> 83 people up to date and show them what to watch for. Mr. Asleson suggested that the Quad <br /> 84 Community Press local newspaper will also be a good vehicle to get information to the <br /> 85 citizens. Public Services Director DeGardner reviewed the city's overall plan to move to <br /> 86 take down those trees that can be spared on public property so that all the trees don't die <br /> 87 all at once. <br /> 88 <br /> 89 3. Off-Sale Liquor Licensing—City Clerk Bartell reviewed the council's previous <br /> 90 discussion about off-sale liquor licensing restrictions that would limit the numbers and/or <br /> 2 <br />
