Blaine park fees increasing for many developers <br />Parks plans <br />Page 4 of 5 <br />The council in 2014 also adopted a plan to set aside $200,000 a year over five years for <br />improvements to neighborhood parks. The funding comes from interest earned in the <br />city's capital improvement fund. <br />"It really helps fix up some of these older parks," Herbst said. <br />Blaine is looking at having its first ever dog park at Aquatore Park where dogs could <br />roam freely in dedicated areas. <br />Other 2016 projects include replacing a playground at Cloverleaf Park, replacing <br />shelters at Little League Park and Mary Elizabeth Park, removing an old shelter at <br />Laddie Lake Park, re -striping the Miracle League field at the Blaine Baseball Complex <br />and adding a basketball hoop at Eastside Park. <br />Replacing old playgrounds will be a priority in 2017 and 2018 with the following parks <br />tentatively scheduled for new equipment: Carrara East, Centennial Green, Happy Acres, <br />Mary Elizabeth, Meadowbrook, Radisson Woods and Swan. The city also is looking at <br />putting in either a 20 foot, by 20 foot shelter or a playground at North Oaks West Park <br />in 2017. <br />The mayor likes that the city is also making it a priority to add benches along trails and <br />in parks whenever possible and that these make great projects for Boy Scouts working <br />on obtaining their Eagle Scout Award. <br />"I think one of the things we forget about a lot is older people when they walk through <br />our parks or trails like a bench every once in a while," Ryan said. "I think it's really neat <br />we're looking at that." <br />erie.hagen@ecm-inc.corn <br />Filed Under: Blaine, Blaine park <br />Advertising Informationj Subscribe I Newsstand Locations I E-Editionj Links I Contact Us <br />Copyright 02016 ECM Publishers, Inc. • All Rights Reserved <br />5 <br />http://abenewspapers.com/2016/01/10/blaine-park-fees-increasing-for-many-developers/ 1/11/2016 <br />
