9.j Wake Study Letter of Support1 m i n n e s o t a keith.parker@state.mn us; Dan. Baumann @wiseonsin.goy;.'lulie galonska@nps.gov 9-1-19 Dear Chairman Parker and Commissioners, The entire eastern border of Scandia fronts the St. Croix Scenic Riverway. We have been hearing concerns about wake -related matters from our citizens, and understand that you have received a presentation and background information regarding the potential effects of boat -generated wakes on the Scenic Riverway. We have discussed the topic of wakes at a recent City Council meeting and workshop. The Council feels there is a need to increase public awareness of the objectives of the Cooperative Management Plan for the Lower St. Croix River (2002), and in particular the intent of "Quiet Waters" and "Natural Waters" designations. We are contacting you to express our interest, and to encourage the Lower St. Croix River Management Commission to address these matters. The City of Scandia supports the recommendation that a stakeholder group be created to review the issues around wake - related issues on the St. Croix and, as determined to be needed, develop recommendations to address them. Thank you. City of Scandia Mayor Christine Maefsky Council members Chris Ness, Steve Kronmiller, Patti Ray, Jerry Cusick 14727 209"' St. N., Scandia, Minnesota 55073 Phone (651) 433-2274 Fax (651) 433-5112 http://www.ci.scandia.mn.us
