The City currently manages nine (9) lakes: Queens Mirror, Concord, <br />Grassy, Griffin, Lost, Secret, North, Middle, and South Triplet for aquatic <br />plants. This equates to 161 acres of surface water that is treated. Lake <br />Howell is not a lake that we manage independently, but rather it is <br />managed jointly by Seminole County with direction from the City. There <br />are a total of 24 lakes in the City. <br />C. Special Presentation — Friends of Lake Kathryn (FOLK) — Mr. Ron Bryant <br />and Mr. Tom Schwartz members of the Friends of Lake Kathryn Society <br />gave a presentation regarding the water body and surrounding drainage <br />basin.

A copy was distributed. There was a <br />question and answer session. <br />Mr. Bradford Gonzalez spoke on storm drainage issues. <br />Ms. Williams shared that if policy changes are to be made, the Board will <br />review data presented by staff/citizens and make a recommendation to <br />the City Commission for their consideration. <br />***The Folks of Lake Kathryn Society members left at 7:15 pm. <br />D. Upcoming Events - Volunteer revegetation of the shoreline of Lake <br />Concord to achieve compliance with the St. Johns River Water <br />Management District for mitigation purposes.

The City's consultant Singhofen and Associates has been <br />contracted to analyze the golf course and conduct a study to determine <br />the best use of the land. They will also evaluate lake accessibility to <br />improve the City's ability to maintain the Triplet Chain of Lakes. <br />F.
