briefly discussed a rough draft of the Preliminary Application for
Dredging as Part of the Restoration Plan for Nagawicka Lake. It is
hoped to have the final draft of the application completed by the next
meeting. Discussion took place on the progress of the dredging
application. The rough draft will be forwarded to T. Hafner for his
opinion. The committee members should direct any comments on the
rough draft via email to J. Bills within two weeks. Composite cores
will be proposed to the DNR for sampling. B. Fieber expressed
concern that the Geason property should not be developed for the
park until after the lake restoration project has been completed. J.
Bills thought that the Geason property is a large contributor of silt to
that particular area of the lake and will need to be assessed when the
land is developed.

The committee members'

City Council minutes regarding their decisions
to maintain the integrity of the dam in order to preserve the pond and
to encourage the City to use every conceivable mechanism to
negotiate a settlement with the property owner and to turn to the use
eminent domain as a last result only. S. Headley recapped an
informational meeting that was held in the Town of Summit by the
Upper Nemahbin Lake Management District regarding the Mill Pond
and the potential results if the dam was removed. Approximately 30+
people attended the meeting with approximately 75% of the attendees
wanting the dam to remain. The City continues its attempts to

property and the Kettle Moraine Evangelical Free Church (the abutting

enough area. The St. John' s disposal area would not meet the criteria
using the above parameters. There is a concern regarding the flood
plain at the proposed St. John' s disposal area which could make this
option unacceptable for use. It was questioned whether this was a viable
disposal area. When the final application is submitted, a detailed

Steve Headlev. 364 Bark River Court - Stated that he was
speaking as
representative of "Tru th in Delafield, Inc." This group will offer an educational
tool for all of the issues involved regarding direct
legislation. As a private
citizen he thought Direct Legislation would be a
crippling blow to the City of
Delafield. If enacted, it will be for a two year period and then would have to be
rescinded or adopted again. He questioned why the
City is spending $ 3, 0005, 000 for the election since there are no capital
projects for 2005 and the
Direct Legislation would not affect any capital

requires that redundancy be built in. The City also has some of the
highest water rates in the state because of the small base of users.
Without the system expansion, the present customers would

An email from T. Hafner dated

was distributed to the
commissioners regarding the affect that the Direct Legislation
referendum has on the Restoration RFP' s. Discussion took
place as to
whether the project should be pursued. Five proposals have been
received in response to the RFP ranging in costs from $ 37, 000 - $ 90, 000.
D. Tills and K. Attwell will meet with the DPW to review the
proposals.
Because the dollar range is great, J. Bills asked that the scope of work
