Park and Recreation Agenda Memo Page 2 <br /> March 2 , 1990 <br /> 411 <br /> Also, at this March Commission meeting, I believe that Mr. <br /> Sanders will provide us with some information on the progress <br /> that he has been making in the development of the studies for <br /> the Woodland Trail park and the Hillside park. <br /> STAFF UPDATES: <br /> Charlie Blesener is anticipated to attend this meeting and <br /> should update the Commission on the status of winter Park and <br /> Recreation activities and upcoming spring/summer Park and <br /> Recreation plans . <br /> Attached for your information is a "laundry list" of possible <br /> park improvements that is provided by Street/Park <br /> Superintendent, Phil Hals . As was done in 1989, the staff is <br /> looking for a recommendation from the Commission on how park <br /> dedication funds should be used in 1990 . Also, as in 1989 , it <br /> is appropriate for the Commission to recommend to spend <br /> somewhere in the neighborhood of $25,000 on improvements in <br /> selected parks . <br /> Attached for your review are a number of pieces of <br /> information. The first item is a notice that the Elk River <br /> Area Citizens League will be sponsoring a panel discussion on <br /> April 26, 1990, on the topic of whether or not the City needs a <br /> Park and Recreation Director. Also, on this attachment is a <br /> notice about a public hearing on March 6 , at the County <br /> Government Center on the Sherburne County Comprehensive Local <br /> Water Management Plan. This meeting is also discussed in the <br /> attached 2/27/90 letter from the Minnesota Soil and Water <br /> Conservation Districts . A third piece of information that is <br /> attached is a draft memo from the Mayor that discusses his <br /> recent meeting at the Lake Orono Homeowners Association annual <br /> meeting. This memo summarizes what he indicated to the <br /> Association and some of the concerns expressed to him from the <br /> Association. The final attachment is some information provided <br /> by Planning Commission Chairman, Peter Kimball. This <br /> information discusses Park and Recreation projections in <br /> various activities in Minnesota through the year 2000. This <br /> information seems to coincide with the results of the recently <br /> conducted community survey. <br /> One additional point I would like to bring to the attention of <br /> the Commission is a new plat that has received preliminary <br /> approval by the Planning Commission and City Council. The <br /> Commission was supposed to review this plat before it got to <br /> the City Council in its preliminary state; however, due to the <br /> resignation of the Zoning Assistant, this did not get processed <br /> to the Park and Recreation Commission. The plat that is in <br /> question is behind the Masonic Lodge, south of Highway 10 and <br /> west of Upland Avenue. No park property is planned in this <br />
