J. Nelson reported of the committee which has met several times this past month about the Eurasian Water Milfoil problem.

J. Nelson reported that the Grant Application has been received by the LCCMR Committee.  We will not hear about the grant until early spring of 2008.

The committee recommended that we send an email to all persons which have listed their email address asking for a donation to the control of EWM under the 501 C program. The GLPOA has been granted a tax deduction for persons who donate to the fund.  It was recommended that people become award of this program as it is fully tax deductible for dollars donated to the EWM fund on your State and Federal Tax form.

J. Nelson presented information to the Board about doing a survey for 2007 year or waiting for 2008 year.  Motion by R. Stehn, seconded by T. Broman that we do a careful comprehensive detailed examination of Green Lake by the survey in the spring of 2008.  J. Nelson, D. Gunderson, and T. Frazee will contact D. Osgood as to the best time for the survey.

Discussion was held about dues statement for 2008 year.

The Lake Management Committee explained to the Board that we will need dollars to continue the work against EWM in the future.    J. Nelson made the motion, seconded by M. Quale that the dues for 2008 year be increased from $35.00 to $50.00 per lake lot which will begin with the year 01 June 2008 to 31 May 2008   Motion carried.

J. Nelson stated the Lake Management Committee recommended that on the dues statement the 501 C program be included along with the President explaining the program.

J. Nelson presented information about County Road 10, Lake Avenue South, to be repaired during the summer of 2008. This road will be designed by engineers under the direction of the City of Spicer.   The GLPOA wishes to ask all concerned that we have holding ponds for the storm water run off rather than going directly into Green Lake.   It was suggested that people living along Lake Ave south, the construction area, write letters to the City of Spicer, Kandiyohi County Commissioners plus the Public Works Department of Kandiyohi County.
