\u00a0Leonard advised there is a revised Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the LDRA after our work session.\u00a0 Hektoen said we are back to the original MOA in terms as to what land is conveyed.\u00a0 The only real estate in tracts 1-93 that will be held back by the LDRA is parcel JJ which is a small parcel by North Beach and the LDRA will retain the dredge containment site for further discussion regarding the \u2018right of first refusal\u2019 on that property.\u00a0 The rest will be conveyed to the District.\u00a0 The original MOA had a restriciton on ownership whereby lake proeprty and the dam site had to be held by a public entity into perpetuity.\u00a0 Following our \u00a0discussion during the work session, only the dam site itself and Lost and North Beach will be subject to that restriction.\u00a0 In addition, if the District wants, they can follow the same procedure that cities use to sell property which includes public hearings, etc.\u00a0 Hektoen used April 25, 2013 as the close date to accommodate Mitvalsky\u2019s schedule.\u00a0 Motion to approve 3rd<\/sup> Memorandum of Agreement by Kramer and second by Kray.\u00a0 Hektoen said that once the issues surrounding Parcel JJ are settled the LDRA is subject to send that land to the District.\u00a0 Davidson asked when the LDRA received the document and Hektoen said he gave it to Mitvalsky on Friday, March 29, 2013.\u00a0 Locke said he received it on Tuesday, April 2.\u00a0 Burger asked Locke if he had any questions on the document and Locke said nothing of significance and has no questions of the Trustees prior to the LDRA meeting.\u00a0 Galiher indicated he was in compliance with what Locke said as he had no particular objection to anything in the document.\u00a0 Individual roll call requested on the motion to accept the revised MOA.\u00a0 All ayes, motion passed.\u00a0 Hektoen left the call.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Leonard gave background on the agreement with the DNR for funding purposes.\u00a0 The agreement in front to the Trustees is the result of meetings between the Legislative Committee and the DNR to facilitate the movement of monies between the DNR and the District.\u00a0 This agreement is somewhat \u00a0different from our original agreement with the DNR regarding the initial funding of $350,000. \u00a0\u00a0It outlines the scope of the project and allows for the first $2.5 million must be spent by 2016 and the second $2.5 million must be spent by 2017.\u00a0 Any project costs are eligible as of July 1, 2012 and Attachment A details what work is eligible.\u00a0 Wastewater had been taken out but remains on this copy so Leonard will need to initial the word \u2018wastewater\u2019 and remove it.\u00a0 The County Auditor and the County Attorney reviewed the document as we follow county procedures for payments.\u00a0 The District will make payments first and then will be reimbursed by the DNR.\u00a0 Within the document there is a requirement to do project updates and Stanley Engineering is aware of these requirements as they will provide the updates and Stanley will make sure work is completed before any payments are made.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Kramer made motion to accept the DNR agreement and Schneider second the motion.\u00a0 Davidson asked how many contacts we will have at the DNR and\u00a0 Leonard said George Antonio will be the primary lead for the DNR and he will make sure Dir. Gipp and McGhee will be copied.\u00a0 Davidson asked what the payment process looked like and Kramer said she receives the invoices, the Finance Committee will review and when done, she scans everything and forwards to the DNR.\u00a0 Burger said the Finance Committee will review all payments the Saturday before each regular monthly meeting.\u00a0 Locke asked if our contracts will have progress billing milestones and Peter said there are some progress billings in the RFP document.\u00a0 Peter said specific progress reports will be demanded in order for those payments to be made.\u00a0 Individual roll call requested on the motion to approve the DNR agreement, all ayes, motion passed.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Schneider discussed the storage agreement for the work platform with Darryl Hogan.\u00a0 The original document had the District name incorrect and had Hogan wanted the start date to remain the same so the contract completes in November 2014.\u00a0 Burger said we have no obligation that we will sell it to him and Schneider indicated that was true.\u00a0 Burger made motion to approve the storage agreement with Hogan, Peter second, motion passed.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Public comment \u2013 Galiher asked if the flood plain bill that is being considered. \u00a0Leonard said the House approved it, yesterday the Senate committee met and approved it unanimously and now it goes to the floor of the Senate.\u00a0 Galiher also asked if public access has been dropped by the DNR?\u00a0 Leoanrd said access is very important and they know it is important to us.\u00a0 We have to make it part of our plan they have given us more time.\u00a0 We are working with the County and those discussions will continue.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Locke said salvaged both boats and we will need to re-register the work platform when we are ready to use it.\u00a0 Locke also said the LDRA had to buy 250 gallons of LP for the office.\u00a0 Galiher said there was a package on the outside of the office building and Locke said it is a podium that is used for the LDRA annual meetings.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Diane Bauers asked what equipment was being stored at Hogans and Leonard indicated it is the work platform or old barge.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Bob Klima said the agendas come out on the web site in very small print.\u00a0 Kray said she would enlarge the print on the next posting.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0Motion made by Kray and second by Kramer to go into closed session for discussion and consideration of the terms, strategy and negotiations for the acquisition of interests in real estate for the purpose of restoring the lake and dam.\u00a0 Individual roll call requested, all ayes, motion passed.<\/h3>\n
