Thank you for attending the Public Safety Advisory Commission meeting and your interest in the conduct of public business is appreciated! Again, as with the dock issue, it becomes abur fences at all, but control ; control by the City of 1 the docks, with the fences, there will be no contr Elsinore without a battle in court, and there is nc would win such a battle'. This was debated in 19! the City fathers at that time decided not to litigat over lake access rights, just as the State of Calife litigate in 1989. Why ? Because we have certain' City rights. If the docks, fences and whatever of dream up goes to litigation, the City could loose the issue is not lake access fees *, night time lake closure *', and cooperation from the County side property owners. Message to the City of Lake Elsinore: Are you sure you want to open this can of worms ? Once open, there will be animosity for decades, no matter who wins; It would be an open wound that the City would for ever be trying to close. What say we recognize each other's position, rights, and obligations. Forget this ridiculous nonsense of control, The City will never control the County residents, and this is no way to win us over! The only thing that is occurring as a result of this attempt at control is a bigger chasm between us. Pete Dawson, Proud to live in Lakeland Village and Adjacent to my friends in Lake Elsinore. zarkable rights to a natural body of water to which they are riparian ' of water and for any beneficial use including recreation. Riparian tive rights such as the City and Water District have. LAKE RIGHTS When I bought my land at the lake, Part of it extendedinto the waters of Lake Elsinore. That made me a riparian owner of Lake Elsinore, and since the lake is a natural body of water, I have rights that only exist to riparian owners of natural waters. Even better! Because I have rights "in and to the waters" but also to ALL the waters and at ALL times. At the time of my purchase, the lake was owned by the State of California, that is, you and me. Later, the State gave the lake away to the City of Lake Elsinore, and the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District. So, the State took my share away from me without compensation, and gave it to two agencies, one of which I have no control over, and the other, I have very limited control over. In the transfer of ownership, is the proviso that the City work with the County residents (from whom rights were taken away), to negotiate certain issues of benefits lost in the transfer. WHAT DID WE LOOSE; WHAT DID WE GAIN? County residents riparian to Lake Elsinore gave up "free" access to Lake Elsinore at all times 2, to paid access to Lake Elsinore during daylight hours. We gained guaranteed access in perpetuity: no more fight on this issue. Further, the access was limited to owners and tenants, not guests. We felt this was fair. At that time, no one was anticipating a dock issue; a fence issue, or other issue. The parties settled down and became good neighbors. County residents and City personnel have done more than their share to make the agreement work. How time changes perspectives!! A new crop of City personnel, eager to make the lake more (cost) productive, but ill informed as to what their predecessors went through in negotiations, choose to have another bite at the apple: maybe gain a little more control (and lake income) at the expense of those "country cousins" on the un- incorporated side of the lake. In fact, without our absolute refusal to accept City policy, the City would win by default, and, apparently, that is the game they tried to play in not informing all the affected citizens of their plan (scheme). SOUTHSHORE PROPERTY OWNERS: Your only protection is to stand up for your rights; be informed and speak your mind as these issues come up; Who knows what these folks will dream up next; we just need to be prepared for anything! ' In the agreement with the City of Lake Elsinore, They accepted our right "in and to", and we accepted a closed lake at night time. 2 There had never been a question of access to the lake (to our property lines), the negotiation was to access the body of the lake.
