NEWLY - FORMED LAND CONSERVATION / E NVHLON-
MENT COMMITTEE (LCEC) for the City of Shorewood
has hit the ground running. The LCEC was created
by a Shorewood City ordinance and is charged with multi-
faceted duties. By ordinance adopted on June 14, 1999, the
LCEC is composed of seven individuals. They are: Chair
Frederic Bruno, Vice Chair Tom Schmid, Secretary Lucinda
Kircher, Joel Jurgens, and Dave Gosen. Also sitting on the
Committee are Paula Berndt from the Park Commission, and
Donna Woodruff from the Planning Commission. The mem-
bers of the LCEC are volunteers and are eager to hear from
members of the community. They may be reached through
City Hall at 474 -3236.
The mission of the LCEC is to:
Implement a process which will permanently pro-
tect and increase natural open space in the City of
Shorewood
Serve as an educational resource to the City Coun-
cil, Commissions and property owners regarding
land protection options, and the benefits of a con-
tinuing land conservation effort
Assist, guide and coordinate environmental issues
and education
Since late September, the LCEC has been meeting every
two weeks, and will work toward presenting a report to the
City Council in June, 2000. The LCEC will continue to hold
public meetings — including guest speakers —as it considers
work plan items for the coming year. Some of those are:
green space conservation, lawn chemical use and residential
composting.
If you are concerned about land conservation and environ-
mental issues, please consider working with the Committee
to help locally. What a great way to start the new millen-
nium! Meeting days and times will be published in future
newsletters.

your early in this season to check the condition of their
mailbox mailbox and its supports. The City will not re-
place mailboxes that are damaged from the force
of the snow coming off the plow. Snowplow
operators pay close attention to avoid mailboxes
and other obstacles within the right of way. How-
ever, in the event a plow makes contact with the

S REPORTED IN THE NOVEM-

CITY'S APPLICATION TO
Hennepin County for winter use of
the LRT for the 1999/2000 season
did not include snowmobiling.
Since then, many residents have re-
sponded with suggestions for how
the trail should be maintained for the
snow season. At their November 8
meeting, the City Council reviewed
the various options and voted to di-
rect staff to completely plow the
LRT trail at least through Decem-

nificant snow-
falls) to initially

confusion at the

asked the Park Commission for in-
put, and plan to revisit the issue at
the December 6 Council meeting.
Park Commission Agrees to
Total Snow Removal Idea
In discussion at their November
meeting, members of the Park Com-
mission agreed that the City must
fully plow the trail —at least mi-
tially—in order to help get the mes-
sage across that the trail is closed to
snowmobiles. The 1999/2000
snowmobile trail maps show the
LRT as open to snowmobiles
through Shorewood. In fairness to
well- intended and informed
snowmobilers who may follow the
preprinted maps, there needs to be a
clear indication of the recent change.
The Commissioners felt the best
way to do that is to keep the trail
clear of snow. Of course, all of this
is assuming there will be snow in
Shorewood this year. Keep in mind
that if and when it snows, the trail
will not be cleared immediately
since roadways and parking areas
are the first priority.
City Council Asks for More

does not want
to prevent

tience. The Council also asks for
your input. They are still listening
and considering all perspectives as
they continue to work on a plan.

That means several days of sustained below - freezing temperatures and a few
other conditions which are out of our control, must occur. Signs will be posted at
the three warming houses when the ice is ready for use. Badger, Manor and Cathcart
parks have both free skating facilities and warming houses operated by rink atten-
dants. Badger and Cathcart also have hockey boards and nets. Silverwood Park has
a pond which is groomed for a free skating rink when the ice is determined to be safe.
Warming House hours will be as follows:
Mondays - Thursdays
3:30 P.M. - 9:00 P.M.
Fridays
3:30 P.M. - 10:30 P.M.

available. Warming houses will be posted when closed.
A Note to Parents
T IS IMPORTANT to make arrangements
in advance to pick up your children
at the end of their skating time. The
telephones in the warming houses are
for emergency use only and will be
locked when the attendant is outside.
The 10:00 P.M. curfew for juveniles 14
years and younger will be enforced.
Rink attendants are required to follow
City regulations themselves, as well as
to see that others do the same.
We welcome any comments
regarding our rink operations.
! ! ! INCOME OPPORTUNITY ! ! !
Looking for a job? Why not be a rink
attendant? The season is approximately two
months. Applicants must be dependable,
friendly and 16 years or older. Competitive
salary with an end of the season bonus to
those who qualify! Apply at City Hall.
