2. Discussion of Park Commission guidelines and projects
CM Scharber started the discussion out with his concern that at many of
Park Commission Meeting members show up wondering what needs to be
done. He pointed out that there are a lot of new members and they want
guidelines and direction from the City Council.
The Council came up with the following suggestions: Finalize construction
plans for Lilly Pond Park, start working on the plans for the proposed park
by the West Wastewater Treatment Plant, research and plan for a
Community Center.
The Council direction to the staff was:
A. Dan Licht is to put together information for the proposed park
near the West WW Treatment Plant for presentation at a future
Park commission meeting.
B. Dan Licht is to write a letter supporting increasing the Park and
Trail Fees for community centers.
C. Give all Park Commission Members copies of the Park and
Trail Plan.
D. Information Packets for new members.
The City Council supports the activity events in the Park and they support
using Community Education for this.
The City Council also would like the General Fund reimbursed for the land
purchase of Prairie Creek Park. Dan Licht will determine what portion of
the site is used by parks.
The City Council supported discontinuing using the Haunted House if the
Parks Commission agreed.
