MINUTES <br />Parks & Recreation Commission <br />December 5, 2002 <br />Concern was expressed about the ability of residents to get their boats onto the lake this spring <br />since the Arcade Street bridge project will occur around the same time. Holmberg stated that <br />residents might be able to launch their boats in April at Gervais Beach. A May ls` construction <br />start is planned. <br />Concern was also expressed about the drainage from Edgerton Street. Holmberg stated that to <br />his knowledge, nothing new is planned for drainage in that area, but he would check with the <br />County's Public Works Department on that issue. <br />Signage at the Spoon Lake boat launch was suggested to inform the boaters that the park is <br />closed. <br />TRAILS Sanders presented a revised trail plan to the Commission. Members were encouraged to review <br />the plan and present their comments at the next meeting. Some of the comments expressed at <br />the meeting included: <br />^ Connection missing at northeast corner of Pioneer Park. <br />^ Vanderbie connection missing.
