Board of Directors

Shaping the future of Lake Minnetonka

The LMCD is governed by a voluntary Board of Directors composed of one member appointed by the City Councils of the 14 municipalities that border Lake Minnetonka. The Board provides direction for the organization, develops policies and initiatives, and helps build partnerships to carry out the mission of preserving and enhancing the Lake Minnetonka experience. Serving on the Board is a great way to guide the future of Lake Minnetonka, helping to protect the lake, the surrounding communities and all those who enjoy it.

Terms on the LMCD Board run from February 1st through January 31st of the following year. Our Board members serve on three-year terms subject to recall by the cities. There are no applicable term limits for Board members. Each city determines the process in which they appoint its representative to the board. In addition to the formal board meetings, many members are active within their community, workshops, and special projects. If you are interested in volunteering your time, enthusiasm and expertise to the communities surrounding Lake Minnetonka by participating on our board, please contact us for more information.
