Idea from floor: Ask DNR about stocking the lakes now that O'Brien has a launch. Maybe inquire about fish other than walleye. Concern from floor: Boats getting close to docks and going fast--worried about erosion of lakeshores. Law states that boats must remain 150 feet from shore when making wakes. Water testing on lakes: 2 types of testing are performed on the lakes. H Peterson said Balmers are interested in testing for O'Brien and a meeting will be organized with them and Chris Boxmeyer to get the testing planned. Looking for a volunteer to help Miles Johnson with testing on Goodrich. Mike Rancour provided handouts for cty rd 36 construction updates. Fall meeting: Saturday of Labor Day weekend: 11 am and pork chop lunch at legion after the meeting Wildlife: bear sightings, triple fawns over on goodrich. Mike Story removed Beaver dam on O'Brien this past week. Board needs to look into beaver trapping for both lakes. New business from floor: Would like to have member directory list finalized by August and hoping to include new lake residents. Request to see if we can get another milfoil survey performed on the lakes. Mike Rancour said he needs to re-establish contact with WAPOA to ask about this. Please be aware of purple milstrife and pull from roots when found. Meeting adjourned at 9:41 am |
