PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION
January 13, 1986
Called to order by Connie Lasser.
Members Present: Bob Gehrz, Jean and Leo Ohman, Paul Nelson, Tom
Montain, and Connie Lasser
Members Absent: Floyd Bedbury, Tom Amman, Ardis Hutchins and
Keith Moderson
Guest: Gertrude Esteros
Park and Recreation Director
Connie and Tom reported on the Subcommittees' interviews with three
applicants for this position. Ms. Pat Bush will be the first choice
of the Commission for this post. Connie will write a letter to the
City Council listing her qualifications and recommending that she be
hired. An interview with Dewan Barnes will be arranged.
• Winter Skating
This program seems to be going very well with many skaters at each
rink. The ice at the Grove has been a little choppy and Steve Nelson
and employees will be re-flooding it.
Before next winter, a policy regarding reserving the ice rinks should be
discussed. Also to be discussed is the use of rinks for pleasure
skating, hockey and broomball. It was also suggested that the hours
be posted at each warming house.
1666 Coffman
Gertrude Esteros brought with her achitectural plans showing detailed
drawings of this new construction and how it relates to the Grove Park.
This Commission would like the City (Dewan Barnes) to give us the status
of the Grove Park--is it leased/owned/used by Falcon Heights. A
subcommittee of Paul Nelson., Tom Montain, and Bob Gehrz will inspect
the Grove Park and review specifically the area allocated for a ball
field. Also parking will be looked at.
Survey Results
Connie briefly explained some of the results for a survey taken in the
summer of 1985. It was moved that Dick Krueger and his daughter be
paid to tabulate these results.
• Next Meeting
The date may be changed. Connie will notify the Commission of the exact date.
Paul Nelson, Secretary
