Despite the short notice, I want to thank those who emailed the Council Members and attended the Council Meeting this evening.  We had approximately 12-14 lake owners in attendance. 

Rich Kusick began the discussion around the needs for lake weed control and several lake owners addressed the Council directly with their concerns on Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) and their impact on the lake. 

Our perception for City assistance is optimistic for initial funding to address the invasive weeds, but we’ll need to develop a long term, sustainable plan that involves LLIA, the City of New Brighton, and Ramsey County to continue the remediation process.

The Council will be meeting on Feb 28^th at 6:30 to vote on funding weed control on Long Lake.  We’d appreciate your attendance or voice your support of funding to: val.johnson@newbrightonmn.gov; gina.bauman@newbrightonmn.gov; mary.burg@newbrightonmn.gov; paul.jacobsen@newbrightonmn.gov; brian.strub@newbrightonmn.gov; dean.lotter@newbrightonmn.gov

We appreciate your support and involvement, 

LLIA
