Adnim Ass'I. <br />City of Mounds View <br />2401 Highway 10 <br />Mounds View, 14N 55112 <br />Dear Mayor and Council: <br />As you are well aware, the Metropolitan Surface Water Management Act, commonly <br />called Chapter 509, requires that a water management plan be prepared in all the <br />counties of the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. In our area, the. Rice Creek <br />Watershed District is the responsible agency for preparing the management plan. <br />The law requires the development of a surface water management plan to achieve <br />the following objectives. <br />- To reduce, to the greatest possible extent, public capital expenditures <br />necessary to control excessive volumes and rates of run-off; <br />- To improve water quality; <br />- To prevent flooding and erosion from surface flows; <br />- To promote groundwater recharge; and <br />- To protect and enhance fish and wildlife habitat and water recreation <br />facilities. <br />We can all agre(,. that these are laudable goals. if these goals are Lo he <br />implemented, we must all work together as closely as possible to insure that <br />our plan does not just "sit on the shelf" but becomes truly a functional part of <br />water resources management within the Rice Creek Watershed District. To make <br />sure the plan is technically sound and meets local policy objectives we have <br />decided to set up two advisory committees: <br />1) The Technical Advisory Committee, and <br />2) The Citizen's 509 Task Force.. <br />BOARD OF MANAGLRS <br />C.T.
