STATEMENT OF PUBLIC NOTICE The Deputy Clerk stated that the meeting was noticed in accordance with the open meeting law. APPROVAL OF MINUTES – October 24, 2017 Commissioner Madden moved to approve. Commissioner Borgman seconded; motion carried. NEW BUSINESS Deputy Commissioners' Update - Current Condition of Lake/Bay, Water Levels, Plant Growth, Fish and Wildlife No one was present. Chairman Chiaverotti read the following report that was submitted:  Lake is ice covered with about 16” in most areas. Some lake users are travelling with snowmobiles and ATVs. However, lake ice should never be considered “safe” and people should always be aware of changing conditions.  There has been little snow cover on the ice through most of the winter. This has permitted aquatic plants to continue to photosynthesize beneath the ice and produce oxygen. So at this time, there is a lower likelihood of a winter fish kill occurring.  Fishing has been good for Northern Pike, Largemouth Bass and Bluegill.  Some prominent growths of Eurasian Water Milfoil began last fall and can be seen thriving beneath the ice. This indicates that the lake could have more of a problem with this nuisance plant in 2018. Authorization for Chair to Apply for Chemical Aquatic Plant Control Permit Commissioner Kubacki made a motion to approve. Commissioner Wolfe seconded; motion carried. ADJOURNMENT Commissioner Kubacki made a motion to adjourn at 7:21 p.m. Commissioner Wolfe seconded; motion carried. Minutes taken and transcribed by Jill Blenski, Deputy City Clerk.
