LRRWMO Meeting Minutes February 15, 1989 Page 2 REPORT OF OFFICERS Raatikka reported that the City of Ramsey held their second public hearing on the proposed Rum River Erosion Control Ordinance as altered, currently referencing "Minimum Wake" and "Quiet Waters" language. They reportedly received mixed comments with the main consensus being that the pro- posed ordinance was too vague and questioned its enforce- ability. Most residents present were reportedly in favor of no water skiing or jet skiing on the P.um River. Mathisen pointed out that the current ordinance termin- ology has been used for enforcement on bodies of water for some time and should, therefore, be applicable to the Rum River. Raatikka reported that Ramsey City Council tabled action on the supporting resolution pending further study on the ordinance's vagueness on the "Mininun Wake" language. The minutes of Ramsey's public hearing will be available for WMO review at the March meeting. The other member cities have not yet held their second public hearing regarding the proposed ordinance.
