July 2003 Shore Report1 -1 E INSIDE .tea I I� mi JULY 2033 Annual Water Report Available T N ACCORDANCE WITH THE Safe Drinking Water Act, the City of Shorewood has published a technical monitoring report of the City's municipal water supply in the June 26 edition of the Sun Sailor newspaper. This technical document is compiled by the Minnesota Department of Health, and is a report to the consumers of municipal water regarding the levels of all contaminants in the water. The report covers the period from January 1, 2002, to December 31, 2002, and is revaluated on an annual basis. Since fewer than 40% of the residents of Shorewood are served by municipal water, individual reports are not mailed to each house. Copies are available on the City's Web site, wwwci.shorewood.mn.us, or at City Hall. If you have questions about the City water, please call City Hall, (952) 474 - 3236. Mosquito Control Is a Community Project M ETROPOLITAN MOSQUITO CONTROL District (MMCD) works hard to control mosquitoes and biting gnats, and monitors the distribution of Lyme ticks in the metro area. This control reduces human disease and dog heartworm, and also makes the area a little more comfortable for area residents in the summer months. MMCD Efforts Senior Corner .......... ... ..

Wooden Boats Wanted ...... 6 Mid -April through September, a dry formulation of a natural soil bacteria called Bti is applied by hand or helicopter to areas where high levels of mosquitoes are expected. Mosquito and black fly larvae are controlled when they eat Bti. Briquets and pellets containing very small amounts of methoprene, an insect growth regulator that prevents immature mosquitoes from hatching into adults, are also spread in these areas. Methoprene and Bti are not harmful to humans, pets or wildlife. Adult mosquitoes are treated with permethrin and resmethrin. This is what you see being sprayed by mosquito control workers. They are applied by either a backpack or truck- mounted sprayer at very low dosages. These materials do not pose a risk to humans. Updates on where spraying is occurring is available by calling (651) 643 -8343. Resident Responsibility For your part in the mosquito control effort, you must keep a close watch on your own y and and home. To manage your area: Remove or empty water - holding containers where mosquito larvae develop (tires, treeholes, wading pool, buckets, water trays under plants, toys, etc.) • Be aware that adult mosquitoes are most active at dusk, and early morning. • Wear loose- fitting, light - colored (white) clothes. • Thin vegetation, and mow grass regularly. Adult mosquitoes use protected, shady areas as daytime resting spots. Lyme ticks also hide out in these areas. • Follow label instructions when using repellents and insect control products. For more information, call MMCD at (651) 645 -9149, or visit their Web site at www.mmcd.org. S UP0 Meetill Park Commission Meeting 7r'28 7:00 See mosquito facts /fiction on page 5! THE SHORE REPORT Jul 2003 Recycling dews Backyard composting ACKYARD COMPOSTING is an easy way to turn much of the waste from your yard and kitchen into a rich material that you can use to improve your soil. Using finished compost on your lawn and garden will provide an organic fertilizer, suppress weeds and hold moisture in the soil. Use any simple recipe (see information sources at the end of this article). You'll get the best results if you use the right mix of ingredients to make your compost pile. The key materials are nitrogen -rich "greens," carbon -rich "browns," water and air. All of these are essential, but they're easy to mix together for quality compost. Greens provide nitrogen and are a source of protein for the microbes that are hard at work in your compost pile. Browns are a source of carbon, and provide energy for the microbes. (Green leaves, coffee grounds, tea bags, plant trimmings, dried grasses, leaves and some weeds, straw, wood chips, twigs and branches, raw fruit and vegetable scraps, fresh grass clippings, hair, sawdust, shredded newspaper and corncobs and stalks) As living things, the microbes in your compost pile need water and air to work and live. Water allows microbes to grow and travel around in the pile to decompose materials. Turning your pile each week with a spade or pitchfork provides air to aid decomposition and control odor. While many materials can be composted, there are some items that you should keep out of your home compost pile. Excluding foods with meat, dairy or oils will minimize odor Call the Southshore Senior Center at (952) 474 -7635 to register or for information: Boone and Erickson are back at the Old Log and we have tickets for the Tuesday, July 15 performance.

Since compost is generally used for a soil amendment, you want to keep it free ofplant diseases and unhealthy bacteria, such as food with meat, hair or oils, pet feces, diseased plants, weeds gone to seed, ash from charcoal or coal.

T HE 20TH ANNUAL NATIONAL Night Out is Tuesday, August 5. The South Lake Minnetonka Police Department is proud to be a part of this great campaign, designed to strengthen neighborhood spirit and police - community partnerships. National Night Out (NNO) sends a message to criminals letting them know that residents are organized and dedicated to keeping their neighborhoods safe. Although most Shorewood residents feel safe from criminal activity, crime does occur in this area. One of the best ways to keep it from affecting you and your neighbors is to get to know each other, even if it is just on a casual basis. National Night Out provides an excellent opportunity for neighbors to become better acquainted. Along with the traditional display of outdoor lights, cities and neighborhoods celebrate NNO with a variety of evening activities, such as block parties, cookouts, and visits from the police department. NNO is an effective, inexpensive and enjoyable program to promote neighborhood spirit and police- citizen partnerships in the fight for safer communities. The benefits your neighborhood will derive from NNO will most certainly extend beyond the one night. The South Lake Minnetonka Police Department, which serves the communities of Shorewood, Excelsior, Greenwood and Tonka Bay, encourages neighborhoods to try this event in 2003. South Lake officers are available to stop by your activities to answer questions, provide you with crime prevention tips, show the police cars to children, and get to know each other. Please contact Community Service Officer /Crime Prevention Specialist David Hohertz at (952) 474 -3261 for assistance with organizing your event. Early Shorewood Area Historic Sites T HE HISTORIC SITES in the south shore area of Lake Minnetonka are numerous and tell a great deal about the character of the land in the early days of its development. Shorewood has many of these sites within its boundaries. Some of these sites have been worked into the local parks and trail systems, but most are privately owned. In an early park system plan, the history of the area and its historic sites were summarized. This included the fact that Shorewood was originally part of the Excelsior Township and was not incorporated until 1956. Up until 1940 most development in this part of the Lake Minnetonka area was in the City of Excelsior. At this time, the Shorewood area was largely agricultural and undeveloped. This explains the Excelsior name on many things that cover our entire area, such as the Excelsior Area Chamber of Commerce. The U.S. government opened this area for homesteading in 1855. Some of the homes built at this time still exist. In Shorewood, land was usually sold by the quarter section, which is 160 acres, to one family. Many of these original settlers provide the namesakes of local roads, lake bays and neighborhoods. In terms of development periods on the south shore, this first influx ofpeople began roughly with homesteaders and continued through the 1880s. It was during this time that Peter Gideon (the Gideon name still being familiar in Shorewood) lived and farmed here. He produced the Wealthy apple and is largely responsible for adapting apple growing to our northern climate. r' Watch for more on the historical sites of the area, and on Peter Gideon, in the August Shore Report! www. ci.shorewood. mn. us 4 Solicitors Require License F YOU HAVE A SOLICITOR come to your door, you should immediately request to see a copy oftheir Shorewood Solicitor License.
