Open Forum <br /> No one appeared for open forum. <br /> 5. Presentations <br /> 5.1. Ski Trails at Wilderness Road & Mayo Lake Nature Preserve <br /> Tom Beaver addressed the Council with his vision of future maintenance <br /> of ski trails at Wilderness Road and creating ski trails at Mayo Lake Nature <br /> Preserve. Mr. Beaver informed the Council that he met with <br /> representatives from the Pequot Lakes School and they are in favor of this <br /> project but are unable to contribute monetary funding. An idea to create <br /> funding would be to require ski passes. He recommended that this be an <br /> ongoing step by step process beginning with the Council granting him <br /> permission to pursue interest in a ski club. Mr. Beaver noted that the next <br /> step could entail marking out the trails which would require some tree <br /> removal. <br /> The Council questioned the insurance needs of a ski club for liability <br /> purposes and if events would be hosted at these locations. Mr. Beaver <br /> noted that these items would need to be looked into as the process moves <br /> along. <br /> The consensus of the Council favored Mr. Beaver's vision of ski trails at <br /> Wilderness Road and Mayo Lake Nature Preserve and granted him <br /> permission to pursue interest in a ski club. <br /> 6.
