At that meeting, Mr. Nystrom's request for the creation of <br /> regional park coalition for East Sherburne County was discussed. <br /> The Council directed staff to encourage the Park and Recreation Commission to <br /> facilitate a meeting with neighboring park and recreation commissions to <br /> • <br /> determine the willingness of other communities to form a partnership to complete <br /> a regional park plan for East Sherburne County. <br /> Staff has the following questions for the Commission to consider: <br /> 1. Is the Commission willing at this time, to take on this task? <br /> 2. If the Commission is willing to embrace this task, what is the level of <br /> priority that this task should be given? <br /> 3. Which Commissioners, if any, are interested in participating in the drafting <br /> of a letter to surrounding communities to begin this process? <br /> Please provide appropriate direction to staff regarding this issue. <br /> • <br /> S:\PLANNING\MICHMC\PARKNREC\COALITIO.DOC <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
