OLD BUSINESS
A) Winter Use of Urban Lakes & Waterways
Cassidy stated the level of activity on Island Lake this year has subsided. Early in the season there was
quite a bit of noise but since then it has been fairly quiet. We left off talking drafting some rules.
Dany Stihl stated it has also been fairly quiet on Island Lake this year because the people who did come
had road appropriate machines, The 4 wheelers gave the skiers the opportunity to skirt along the shore.
It's a multi-use area and everyone should have the right to play.
During discussion, it was the consensus to have the rules cover Island Lake, Dark Lake, and Mission
Lake,
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOSTER expressed concern over posting signs with incorrect information and
making rules that are non-misleading.
Cassidy told the committee that staff will do a Draft Winter Rules of the Lake for them to review at the
next meeting.
After discussion of possible rules, liability, and whether they should keep hashing it out or have Cassidy
put the rules together to bring back for review, it was the consensus to have staff draft the rules close to
the summer rules,
VICE CHAIR FOREMAN stated she would like to keep it where it comes back next year for review.
It was the consensus of the committee to have the following items in the rules:
Summer boundaries No schedule of days for motorized vs, non-motorized
Time limits Effective muffler
Decibels of noise Safety etiquette
NEW BUSINESS
A) 2006 Foreclosure Review
Cassidy reported this is a list of properties that will become borough property shortly. It's before you to
see if there are any properties that should be retained as public lands, The Borough has the option to
declare a property public, and if it goes through all the motions and timeframe it does become public
property, and then we can incorporate it into things like parks, and future sewage treatment plants. It has
to go to the Assembly with public hearings held, We just have a list of the properties tonight but we'll
have maps for the next meeting.
The committee reviewed the list. It will be reviewed further once there are maps,
B) Committee Elections
COMMITTEE MEMBER SAL TONST ALL MOVED to elect Mike Sirofchuck as chair. COMMITTEE
MEMBER SCHROEDER SECONDED the motion, and it CARRIED by unanimous voice vote,
