MINUTES <br />Parks & Recreation Commission <br />October 3, 2002 <br />Sackett Glaser stated that it would be nice to receive the extra tax dollars from a home. She <br />also commented that she does not consider the piece of land as a part of Gervais Mill Park. <br />Smith encouraged the Commissioners to keep an open mind on her proposal. She stated that <br />she would hate to see the City miss an opportunity such as this. She also cautioned that a <br />future City Council could approve the construction of an unsitely building on the property. <br />Broten stated that he does not think that the property will remain open space for long. He <br />favored the idea of splitting the property to leave a buffer zone for open space and snow <br />storage. <br />The Director commented that he felt that a home in that location created potential conflicts <br />with future owners being that Norm's Tire is on one side and snow storage on the other. <br />Gray reconznzended that the City retain cotnp[ete ownership of the property ozz Noel Drive. <br />Motion seconded by Larson. <br />Motion denied 3 - 3.

They came up with a prioritized list. This list was distributed to the Commission <br />for discussion. <br />Schabacker asked if an updated color coded trail map was ever made. The Director said that <br />he did not think that was accomplished. <br />Sackett Glaser recommended moving #2a Centerville Road Trail down to #6b to combine it <br />with the other Centerville Road project. She stated that this project would probably be <br />contingent on when the County will reconstruct the roadway so she did not feel that it should <br />be ranked so high on the list. <br />The Director stated that this list will be presented to the City Council at the workshop on <br />October 9°i.
