I cannot, and will not, respond to a number of the issues raised by Mr. 
Guminga.  However, I will respond to the work done to restore Cedar Lake and 
Lake Calhoun.

That work was done by the Clean Water Partnership.  The money to do the work 
came primarily from the federal government and from the Minnehaha Creek 
Watershed District.  I'm not sure if you are aware of it or not, but those of 
us who live in south Minneapolis are taxed by the Watershed District.  
Therefore, to use the cleanup of those areas, if in fact you were, as an 
example of money which should or could have gone into north and northeast 
Minneapolis is a little bit of a stretch.
