Raatikka suggested, however, in .order to avoid conflicts of interest, perhaps all city projects should be reviewed by this board. Upon considering both stands on the issue and discussion presented, Pearson stated the issues are being made over complicated, and suggested a middle - ground approach be considered.

The LRRWMO Water Management Plan will be transmitted to the cities who will have to prepare a local plan consistent with the overall Water Management Plan. This board can use the cities to review and prepare permit requests which would come to the watershed. This WMO would then review them and send them back to the cities with recommendations. The proposed projects must meet the management plan requirements. Schrantz stated any costs incurred by this board for a total review of all projects would be billed back to the developer. Such costs would include engineering review, permits, and inspection. This board would not incur any costs.
