Within the last 6 months the city has been negotiating and made offers to lease 328 acres on the water known as Windsor # 4 including the Windsor Beach Parking and Ramps. The committee continues to work on this project. The thought was to get the legislature to order State Parks into an agreement……that was not approved but the city and state parks are still trying to get a deal done because it will benefit all.

Senate rejects Lake Havasu State Park lease

Published Wednesday, April 28, 2010 11:05 PM MST
The Arizona Senate disappointed local officials Tuesday when senators rejected a bill that would have required Arizona State Parks to lease Lake Havasu State Park to the city.

House Bill 2464 was defeated 18-12 despite a floor amendment Tuesday by Sen. Ron Gould, R-Lake Havasu, to make the measure more palatable to lawmakers.

Although the bill was voted down in the Senate, a leasing agreement between the city and the state may still be a possibility.

The Arizona State Parks Board meets today at 10 a.m. and the first item on the agenda is an executive — or closed — session to discuss legal advice on the proposed legislation and agreements and/or leases for the Lake Havasu State Park.

The first board vote could require staff to continue conversations with Lake Havasu City officials regarding a possible agreement.

Charlie Cassens, interim Lake Havasu City manager, said Wednesday night that he wants conversations to continue.

“We think we have crafted a plan that is a win-win situation and it would be a shame if they weren’t willing to discuss (it),” Cassens said. “It’s disappointing (that the bill failed) particularly since we thought we had amended the bill to alleviate many of the concerns the legislators had and concerns we thought the State Parks people had.”

Gould said there is not enough time left in the Legislature to push through any bills regarding the matter. He, too, said he was disappointed Wednesday night.

“It would have been beneficial to both Lake Havasu and the Arizona State Parks system. I’m sorry we ran out of time … we would have been doing good just to get that bill through. There’s always next year.”

Rep. Nancy McLain, R-Bullhead City, also chimed in with her disappointment that the measure failed.

“I’m very angry and frustrated at the moment,” she said. “We worked so hard to get this passed and we couldn’t do it.”

Gould’s amendment would have required the State Parks Board to lease the park to the city for 15 years. Financially, the park would have been managed through a Park Enterprise Fund, financially separate from the city with no commingling of funds.

“In return, the park would be eligible to receive up to $1.5 million in interest free loans from the city for capital improvements to the park; any profits generated by park operations would be evenly split by the State Parks Board and the Park Enterprise Fund. Over the course of the 15-year lease, all proceeds received by the Parks Enterprise Fund would have to be spent to improve Lake Havasu State Park.

“At the end of the 15-year lease, control of the park would revert back to the State Parks Board. Since the profits received by the Park Enterprise Fund will have been reinvested into Lake Havasu State Park over the preceding 15 years, State Parks will receive 100 percent of park profits over the term of the lease either as cash or park improvements.”

IJSBA has received this press release from the San Diego Personal Watercraft Club.  We congratulate these guys for their good stewardship of the water.  All participants were given complimentary copies of the IJSBA World Finals DVD.

April 24th San Diego, Ca;

For the first time ever, iloveacleansandiego.org sponsored an on-the-water-cleanup with the San Diego Personal Watercraft Club of San Diego Bay this past Saturday April 24th.
14 jetskis and one boat covered the entire San Diego Bay, approximately 20 miles in length, and collected 330 lbs of floating trash that will NOT be sucked into our impellers.

We found surf board fins, tennis shoes, 2×4’s, plastic bags, plastic water bottles, glass bottles, cigarette butts, rope, and many other things that went down the storm drains and into our Bay after the recent rains.

Thanks to all SDPWC members and here’s to finding 500 lbs next year !!!!!

 Pro Armor backed racers Win 1-2 at Ballance MotoX

Pro Armor continues to help put racers on the podium with Josh Creamer and Dustin Wimmer going 1-2 at Round 2 of the AMA ATV MX Nationals.  Round 2 was held at the Balance MotoX park in Bowling Green , Kentucky . 

 Creamer was riding great all day with a 2-1 finish in both motos to earn him the overall win for Round 2.  In moto 1 he posted the fastest lap time.  In moto 2 he was able to grab the holeshot but he didn’t win without a good fight from the other racers.

 Wimmer rode good all day but it just wasn’t meant to be for the defending champ.  Finishing 2^nd overall with 3-4 moto scores enable him to maintain the lead in this series.

 Several other Pro Armor riders found there way into the top ten.  Jeremy Lawson had a good day with a 6-7 moto score for 7^th overall in Round 2 putting him 8^th overall in the series.  Not far behind was Keith Little and Nick Denoble finishing 9^th and 10^th overall respectively.

 Also riding for Team Pro Armor is Greg Gee who had a slightly rough go this weekend but was able to salvage some points.  He sits 14^th overall in the series and is really looking forward to Round 3.

 So after 2 rounds Pro Armor backed and Yoshimura powered Dustin Wimmer and Josh Creamer are 1^st and 2^nd with Creamer only 4 points back of Wimmer.  Round 3 is sure to be another great race at Birch Creek weekend of May 1^st – 2^nd.
