OLD BUSINESS:

Lake Study: Goodlad reported that the State of Wisconsin has approved their share of the grant and stated it is a top priority in funding. The Federal grant is pending and additional paperwork has to be completed as we are in a new fiscal year. The Federal funding will be about $200,000.

Water Skipping Enforcement: Flom has monitored the snowmobile water skipping at the outlet and stated there as been few problems. An officer will be called if activity picks up.

Stuart Nelson, on behalf of the Star Prairie Fish and Game, suggested a joint effort by the Lake District and the SPF&G to attach signs to ice fishing houses regarding litter, profanity, and shining headlights toward the homes of lake residents.

NEW BUSINESS:

Fish Cribs: The Lake District and Star Prairie Fish and Game built 49 fish cribs in January. These were positioned between the east side of the sand bar and the north side of the public landing in a cluster. This brings the total fish cribs constructed to 190 since inception. A bill was presented by SPF&G for $1,293.16 which is a 50/50 split on cost. Goodlad moved to pay for the fish crib cost, seconded by Demulling, and carried.

Public Input: Star Prairie Land Trust: Stuart Nelson thanked the Lake District for the $4500.00 contribution for the Cedar Bay public access.
