When we <br />purchased our lot nearly 20 years ago, we were informed of the building restrictions <br />for our home and the tree cutting restrictions along the riverbank because of the <br />scenic stares of the Rum River. In addition, we believed that there was a 10-bp limit <br />on any motors on the river. <br /> <br /> In the last few years, there has been increased watercraft activity and an increase <br />in the power of the watercraf~ (including jet skis). As the activity increased, we <br />made inquiries with the DNR only to discover that they are only interested in the <br />land along the fiver and not the activity on the fiver. I now understand that the cities <br />that border the river are the ones that govern the activity on the river. <br /> <br /> The Rum River is a joy to those who canoe and fish its waters and to those who <br />are privileged to live on its fragile banks. We are happy that our city is willing to <br />establish a no wake zone on the Rum River before the banks of the fiver are <br />destroyed. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Gary & Bonnie Baggenstoss <br /> <br />eee~eeeeeeleeeeeeleeleleeeee <br /> <br /> <br />
