Towne, Jason <br /> From: juliskillman@gmail.com <br /> Sent: Monday, September 21, 2020 7:09 PM <br /> To: Towne, Jason <br /> Subject: RE: Burnett County WI <br /> Dear Jason, <br /> Thank you for listening to my concerns over the phone last week& providing me with advice & contact information. I <br /> was unable to open the email addresses but talked with Craig Conroy&Steve Austin. Steve gave me a his email so he <br /> has a copy of the Iletter also. There was mention that maybe the DNR may to be involved. Here is a letter we drafted to <br /> address the problem. Please advise on further action that might be beneficial. Thanks again. <br /> We are writing to express serious concern over Voyager Village's desire to add more dock slips on Lake Little Bear. We <br /> have lived "on" this lake for over 25 years and are very concerned by the volume of boat traffic and its impact on the <br /> shoreline and wildlife. Little Bear is near its 100 year high water level and erosion to the shoreline over the past 4 or 5 <br /> years has been significant—to the point many trees are falling into the lake as the root structures became exposed. <br /> Further,the loon population has diminished with little or no baby loons being born in the past two years.We also noted <br /> that after a weekend with 2 jet skis on the lake,the loons left the lake for nearly 2 weeks. <br /> Lake Little Bear is a beautiful and clean 130 acre lake within Voyager Village which originally was plotted out to protect <br /> the water and the land. Currently has 3 docks with a total of 38 official boat slips operated by Voyager Village <br /> Association. On weekends in particular,the boat landing is very busy and overflow parking was just added this year. It <br /> seems 130 acres can only support so many watercraft and we already seem to be over that limit. As you consider the <br /> request for an expanded revenue source for Voyager Village that you respectfully consider the environmental impact on <br /> this small pristine lake. <br /> With gratitude for your consideration, ECEOVE) <br /> Julianne & Brent Skillman SEP 1 1 1020 <br /> (952) 393-8158 <br /> 29715 Little Bear Drive Land Burne ServiceCounty <br /> Danbury, WI 54830 <br /> From:Towne,Jason<jtowne@burnettcounty.org> <br /> Sent: Friday,September 11, 2020 10:13 AM <br /> To:juliskillman@gmail.com <br /> Subject: Burnett County WI <br /> Hi Juli, <br /> Here is my email if you need to contact me. <br /> Here is a list of the Land Use and Information Committee members: <br /> https://www.burnettcounty.com/index.aspx?nid=291 <br />
