Keats Avenue and Lemire Assessment Clarification - Whittaker explained his recommendation and the notice sent to property owners on the assessments, as outlined in his memo of October 14. Lemire was notified that his assessment would have to be paid in 1983, IIe has had a year, since the improvement went in, to find financing; and it is not unreasonable that he be assessed in 1983- By providing him the 10 ,year payment schedule, he will only be billed for V10 of the improvement costs but, will pay considerable interest at 10%. --Eder - recommended impressing the interest savings on Mr. Lemire and reaffirm the understanding that he would pay his total assessment in 1983. He still would have the 10 year option. 111., DEMONTREVILLE ACCESS: Whittaker reported that the City is still waiting for final action from the DNI3 on the acquisition of the lake access property, The City received a letter from "Residents Around Lake Demontreville" requesting that the City's public access be closed. Greg Foul%, 7864Demontroville Tr. N. read the letter and requested that the City close the access as they if no response was received from the DNR regarding their access. Requested the access be closed this fall. --Dave Garloyd'9'7856 Demontreville.- concurs with-tho letter.- Sees slow movement on the part of the DNR - only present solution is to close the present access and force these other agencies to work on providing an access to Demontreville - this would be a solution that would have some clout. --Handy Zauner, 7M8 Demontreville - present access is a safety hazard and nuisance - would like to see something done now. —G-re4 F.oenks7864 Demontreville - more concerned with the safety - what do we need to wait for. Very hazardous situation -because of the oars and boats coming into residents ,yards and onto private property. --Dave Garloff, 7856 Demontreville - still having problems down at the City. access - related instances. --Jan Fouks - Residents were assured something would be done come fall if nothing concrete was done by the DNR. -Whittaker - last word from the DNR was that they were in the process of litigating the covenants . _Believes the language used by the Council was that the City would consider closing the access.' --Me rg an- reaching the point of closing the access if the DNR is not going to act, --Greg F'ouks - related conversation with the DNR - can wait for the DNR to act for the next 10 years, Mere tonight to say let's close theCity access which cannot be handled or controlled, --Eder - would favor placing some dirt at the access; not sure how much time can be placed in resources to make sure that the problem totally goes away. --Fouks - increased parking fee has helped and will help the problem. No doubt that if the access is closed that people will try and use other areas around the lake for access; but it would be no worse a problem than it is now and no worse if we. still enforce the $25 fees. Can do if have a consorted effort to stop it. --Eder- is it still your understanding that you are sati.sified with the proposal for the access as has been previously defined, --Forks - people in the whole area are agreeable to the proposal that was presented at a joint meeting with the residents, DNR and the City that provided for an access on one lot with 14 parking spaces, They are not enthused about having a .road changed or buying 2-3 lots that 'can' be built up in the future. This is not what the people want - agrees with. this. --Eder - objective was to get the access, parking and launch further away from residential and eliminate the need of crossing the road to launch a boat anO,/off'- get to a.
