NEW BUSINESS
Deputy Commissioner's Update - Current Condition of Lake/Bay, Water Levels, Plant Growth,
Fish and Wildlife.
 Deputy Commissioner Len Pilak provided the following update:
 Weed Control Contract: The contract for weed control is being finalized with the same group
 that has been servicing the area for the past five years. The effectiveness of the service has
 resulted in very few complaints about nuisance weeds.
 Aquatic Bird Activity: With the ice of the Big Lake by early March, there has been an
 influx of aquatic birds. Notable sightings include 19 eagles in one location, various swans,
 and five of six types of different ducks. An early report of an osprey was noted, indicating a
 good start to the season.

New Business (Cont.)
  New Six-wheeler Vehicle: The new six-wheeler is currently in use for fire patrol, assisting
  with a burn operation. The old vehicle, which has served the City for 25 years, will be
  auctioned off. It has been utilized by multiple departments throughout its service. Details
  regarding the bidding process can be obtained from Conversationist Tom Zagar, who
  manages the auction process through Wisconsin Surplus.
  Fishing Report: Fishermen have reported good fishing conditions, although specifics were
  not disclosed. The ice went out on Bass's Bay around March 10-11, leading to a busy boating
  scene shortly thereafter.
