7ECEOWED <br /> 20 September 2021 1.[ <br /> Jason Towne <br /> I SEP `r 4 2021 <br /> Burnett County Zoning Administrator <br /> ty <br /> 7410 CountyRoad K Burnett Coepar <br /> Land Services Department <br /> Siren WI 54872 <br /> Dear Mr. Towne, <br /> We are contacting you as members of the Loon Lake Property Owners Association—our family being <br /> long time property owners on Loon Lake at 29239 Ford Road. <br /> On July 8th, a '2021 Dock Expansion Plan for DNR Approval" was issued by Voyager Village POA to the <br /> DNR proposing the addition of 80 boat slips (incremental to the existing 90 slips) on four Burnett <br /> County lakes with Voyager Village shoreline. The proposal is to add 32 slips beyond the 38 currently <br /> specific to the Loon/Cadotte Lakes. <br /> We appreciate the positive impact of Voyager Village on our community but have great concern for the <br /> potential negative impact on water quality, should this plan advance. <br /> In 2002 the PUD for Voyager Village and its Recreation Plan was amended with Burnett County <br /> approval to allow an increase in boat slips on six lakes including Loon/Cadotte Lakes. Voyager Village <br /> submissions stated their long-range plan was lake use with the "least impact on the environment with <br /> priorities on the water quality, animal life and plant life". The Loon Lake Property Owners Association <br /> believes water quality and lake wildlife have been deteriorating since 2002. <br /> We support review of stipulations for present lake water quality for all area lakes. Lake depth,types of <br /> watercrafts and motor sizes are additional factors that must be included in this analysis. <br /> We request that our lakes—water quality, shoreline preservation, wildlife protection—be given <br /> comprehensive review, halting any actions during the interim and requiring submission for approval on <br /> any/all plan proposals. <br /> Burnett County's lakes are present day critical and valuable assets. We ask your support in preserving <br /> them for the future. Please share our comments with the Board of Supervisors. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> Gat,` <br /> Mark Carlson <br /> Nancy Carlson <br /> 6 Grove Street <br /> Minneapolis MN 55401 <br />
