APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF MEETING January 26, 2021 Commissioner Wolfe moved to approve the January 26, 2021 Minutes. Commissioner Madden seconded; motion carried. DEPUTY COMMISSIONERS' REPORT REGARDING STATUS OF LAKE Current Condition of Lake/Bay, Water Levels, Plant Growth, Fish and Wildlife Leonard Pilak noticed quite a bit of activity on the lake with boats now that the ice is out. No reports on what's being caught. Tom Zagar mentioned the concern of oxygen levels on the lake due to the deep snow cover on the lake, which blocks the sunlight and process that creates oxygen. There haven't been any reports of significant fish kill in the lake. There is an incredible amount of water fowl on the lake. The DNR did not burn the western cattail fringe to reduce the dead cattail material for muskrats and duck habitat. Typically, it is a winter activity, so perhaps they will reschedule for next winter. Commissioner Kubacki asked if there will be a chemical treatment this year. Tom Zagar said they are conducting the chemical treatment and have the DNR permit already. Additionally, the contract approval is on the agenda tonight. NEW BUSINESS Authorization for Chair to sign Water Management Agreement with Innovative Water Care, LLC. (dba Marine Biochemists). Commissioner Kubacki made a motion to approve the contract. Commissioner Terrence seconded; motion carried. 2 Tom Zagar mentioned that it is the same contractor that has done the work the last several years. COMMUNICATIONS AND ANY OTHER BUSINESS AS AUTHORIZED BY LAW Tom Zagar noted that the eagles stole the osprey platform and have since nested in the tree after cameras were set up. Eagles may land there for a rest, but the platforms may be taken back by the ospreys as it is a prime location for their nests. ADJOURNMENT Commissioner Terrence made a motion to adjourn. Commissioner Madden seconded; motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 5:59 PM. Minutes taken by Christine Crisp and transcribed by Aaron Fahl, AICP Associate Planner 3
