Special Parks & Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes Page 2 <br />April 27, 2022 <br />----------------------------- <br /> <br />without having another access point on Cleveland Road and that would require using the road <br />going over the body of water. <br /> <br />Commissioner Anderson suggested that there be small park settings along the body of water <br />that people utilize from the trail. <br /> <br />Council member Wagner asked if this is a public space and where would there be extra <br />parking? <br /> <br />Commissioner Loidolt stated that people will drive to this location and it will be similar to the <br />issues we have a Kliever Park with no parking lot. <br /> <br />Commissioner Anderson shared there may be potential to put parking lot in northeast corner, <br />under the power line. <br /> <br />Council member Wagner stated concern about the option to have parking areas for visitors. <br /> <br />Mr. Tabone asked if the desire is to have it a public access, then looking at parking at where <br />the “park” is designated, county may not want the Cleveland parking lot on north end. <br /> <br />Commissioner Anderson would like to have a looped trail with parklets along the trail and <br />body of water and the road going to Cleveland disrupts that idea. <br /> <br />Mr. Tabone clarified parklets would be picnic areas or overlook areas. <br /> <br />Commissioner Niziolek shared this has great potential for park users to be on the water with <br />kayaks and canoes, but not with a motorized boat. <br /> <br />Mr. Tabone stated they will look at the beaver dams, trail around pond, parking area, parklets, <br />non-motorized boats and fishing as amenities.

Have a look <br />out on the southern pond crossing or looping the southern pond only and trail on west side of <br />northern pond going north for connectivity. <br /> <br />Council member Wagner encourages the loop to go around the whole body of water not just
