Alternative #2 A "Slow /No Wake Zone" north of a line running east and west located 200 feet south of the south end of the island and angling approximately 60 degrees north northeast from a point directly south of the southeast corner of the island to the east shore of the lake as marked by buoys. The point on the east shoreline is located on Ronald marier's property, due west of the southernmost of the two outbuildings and would be identified with a permanent survey marker. The point on the west shoreline is located on Anoka County's property, and would be identified by a permanent survey marker. (Please refer to the attached map that clearly illustrates both of the above alternatives) From a scientific perspective, "Alternative #1" will provide the best protection for the Peltier Island Heron Rookery and the surrounding high quality natural communities, however, considering a variety of other expressed human interests, "Alternative #2" appears to be a more popular solution among several private Lakeshore owners on Peltier Lake. Therefore, the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department is recommending that the City of Lino Lakes and the City of Centerville consider adopting "Alternative #2 ", unless there is a majority of support and testimony towards "Alternative #1 ". If the proposed "Slow /No Wake Zone" ordinance is passed, the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department will conduct a survey of the "Slow /No Wake Zone" boundary, place permanent survey points on the island and on each shoreline, provide buoy placement, maintenance, and removal and will also place a sign at the public access illustrating the area of the "Slow /No Wake Zone ". A minimum number of buoys would be placed to effectively delineate the "Slow /No Wake Zone ". Thank you for considering Anoka County's recommendation pertaining to the most effective placement of the proposed "Slow /No Wake Zone" boundary line on the north end of Peltier Lake. If you any questions on the above recommendation, please contact Jeff Perry at (763) 767 -2896 or at jeff.perry@goldengate.net .
