Environmental Board <br />January 29, 2020 <br />Page 5 <br />DRAFT MINUTES <br />Mr. Nelson stated if there is room, he would reach out to Sue Dahl to see if she has <br />any ideas also. <br /> <br />Mr. Schwartz mentioned if there was room, add to not put lawn clippings on the <br />streets and keep them out of the storm water drains. <br /> <br />Mr. Sullivan will try to get to the Earth Day meeting at Wargo. <br /> <br />Herons - Mr. Nelson went out today and there are about 250 heron nests. Looking at <br />either February 8 or 15 to go to the island with the volunteer group. Does not look <br />like any chain saw work will be happening at this time. <br /> <br />City Water - Mr. Flower wanted to know if our board should get involved with the <br />manganese in the city water. <br /> <br />Mr. Grochala suggested that the board should look at water conservation education. <br />Right now, the city is using 450 million gallons of water out of the aquifers every <br />year and 30 % is for irrigation. <br /> <br />If we could conserve water, we could eliminate a well at the cost of 1.2 million <br />dollars. Also, have a grant from the watershed district to convert all park irrigation to <br />a smart app on phone. We believe we could save 4.5 million gallons a year. <br /> <br />Ms. Andrzejewski would also like to educate residents with wells for they feel that <br />the City cannot tell me what to do. The water all comes out of the same aquifers. <br /> <br />Mr. Flower would like to add an article informing the residents about well cost, <br />water treatment plant, and water conservation best tips. <br /> <br />VIIII. ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Ms. Andrzejewski made a MOTION to adjourn the meeting at 7:33 p.m. Mr. Flower <br />supported motion. Motion carried 4 - 0. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Mary Fogarty <br />City of Lino Lakes <br />
