vegetation, he felt that the Policy should be changed to read ..."high
water mark" instead of ..."to the water's edge" due to the fluctuations
in Lake Winona's water level. After some discussion, A MOTION WAS MADE -
BY COUNCILMAN TURVILLE TO RESTATE THE CITY POLICY ON SHORELINE REMOVAL
OF VEGETATION BY THE ADDITION OF THE PHRASE "HIGH WATER MARK" AND THE
DELETION OF "TO THE WAT'ER'S EDGE". THE MOTION WAS SECONDED BY COUNCIL-
