Re: Schedule a joint meeting with Comfort Lake-Forest Lake Watershed District
Scandia staff recently met over a Zoom call with the Comfort Lake-Forest Lake Watershed
District to review the District’s update to its comprehensive watershed management plan (see
details in the City Engineer’s report). Some of the topics included: Lakes (pollutants,
recreational use, shoreline), Aquatic invasive species, Stormwater management (Low Impact
Development, rules), Floodplain (flood resiliency), Resiliency planning (climate adaptation,
development demands), Groundwater (quantity and quality).
The Watershed plans to connect with local municipalities to look ahead at the next 10 years
together. A joint meeting will allow the Council the opportunity to have some input and get
oriented with the District's goals and objectives.
Emily Heinz, Watershed Technician, offered the dates below for a joint meeting:
