MINUTES OF THE PARK COMMISSION <br />LITTLE CANADA, MINNESOTA <br />February 16, 1984 <br />The regular meeting of the Park Commission of the City of Little <br />Canada was held on the 16th day of February, 1984. <br />The following members were present: Bev Scalze, Nick Kent, Carl <br />Spooner, Elaine Zoch, Bill Sanders and Jim Morelan. <br />The Commission discussed the comments of the neighbors surrounding <br />the proposed park in the area of Lake Street, Lakeshore, Jackson <br />and Demont, made at the February 2, 1984 meeting. <br />Bill Sanders presented a newconceptual plan incorporating three major <br />proposals: <br />1. Clean -up of area using City crews and neighborhood volunteers. <br />2. Habitat Improvement- Seek DNR plans and propose nesting <br />areas and feeding stations. <br />3. Tree and shrub planting attractive to wildlife and <br />adaptable to wetland conditions. <br />Carl Spooner mentioned that maybe larger trees could be machine <br />transplanted from other areas. <br />Berry bushes, pines and spruces were suggested as possibilities. <br />Bill Sanders made a motion to adopt the concept plan as a wildlife <br />nature area, and to advise the City Council of the plan requesting <br />authorization to send copies of the plan to the residents of the <br />area and directing the City staff to put another plan notice in the <br />North Suburban Press. <br />Jim Morelan seconded. <br />Motion passed. <br />The Park Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council <br />after presenting the plan to the neighbors at the March 15 meeting. <br />Bev Scalze mentioned that at the last Park Commission meeting the <br />residents voiced their desire to be notified again if there was a <br />new proposal. They signed a list of names and addresses to be sure <br />they weren't overlooked in the mailing. <br />The Commission members discussed walking the area in the spring, <br />to get a better idea of the concept. <br />(* - At the Feb. 9, 1984 meeting City Council passed Resolution No. 84 -2 -58: <br />Appointing Elaine Zoch, Jim Morelan and Nicholas Kent to the Park Commission <br />for terms of three years beginning in 1984 through 1986.) <br />73 <br />
