LAKE MANAGEMENT
Lake Use Study
On July 16, 1999 the town council adopted the following:
"The goal of the lake use study is to provide sufficient reliable data and recommendations to assist the town council in the formulation of equitable and sound management policies for the use of the lake."
The council reviewed and supplied the town manager with a list of questions expected to be addressed and answered by the study. These will be included in the RFP to be provided prospective consultants. The town is seeking grant monies to assist in the funding of the study.
Shortly after the town council meeting on March 16, 1999 the mayor requested the thoughts of Retired U. S. Coast Guard Admiral Clyde Lusk on the approach to a lake use study. Clyde, as he prefers to be called, is uniquely qualified to assess our concerns regarding lake density and boating safety. His observations and suggestions are valued and his memorandum is set forth for interested parties to review. Special attention should be directed to the conclusions. Clyde, we thank you.
Council and others will study the suggestions offered in this memorandum before setting the course for the long-range study of the issues. (April 1999)
