--.r A- <br /> \4 <br /> ( X <br /> Item #9.C.7. <br /> 41Elk <br /> yofv <br /> River MEMORANDUM <br /> 0 TO: Park and Recreatio• Co mission <br /> FROM: Michele McPhers• •��r/irector of Planning <br /> October 11, 2000 <br /> DATE: <br /> SUBJECT: Gagne Park Security <br /> Commissioner Dave Anderson requested that the Commission discuss the <br /> security of Gagne Park. Phil Hals, Streets and Parks Superintendent, has <br /> acquired a number of large boulders to place at the entrance along the river that <br /> is currently being utilized by a number of ATV users. We believe that this should <br /> resolve a number of the issues for the west side of the park. At this time, staff is <br /> not recommending that the east side of the park be fenced, as the cost of <br /> installing and maintaining a fence would run, in our estimate from $6,000 to <br /> • $10,000 (see attached aerial). We also believe that due to the undeveloped and <br /> the remote nature of the park that substantial infringement would not occur that <br /> would not be reported by the adjacent residential property owners. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Staff recommends that the Commission concurs with staffs actions regarding the <br /> security of Gagne Park. <br /> S:\PLANNING\MICHMC\PARKNREC\GAGNE.DOC <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
