COUNTRY LAKES PARK Mr . K. Johnson turned the meeting over to Mr. John Davidson, City Engineer, to discuss the plans for the development of Country Lakes Park. Mr . Davidson noted that he had worked with the concept as prepared by Mrs . Doris Sullivan . He had prepared a suggested schedule for the phase development of the park starting with the beach area . He reported that in dredging the beach area , the DNR is not concerned with the dredging, but with the storage of the dredged material . A suitable place will be needed to store the material for drainage . This material can be allowed to dry and possibly be used for top dressing in some other area of the park. The next step would be to fill the dredged area with sand, if needed . The second phase of the beach area would be to con- struct the beach shore area . This would entail the removal of all vegation , preparing the soils and the filling with beach sand . Mr . Davidson noted that the beach area should be clearly defined by some sort of a harried - railroad ties , concrete bumpers , etc . The third phase of the development in the beach area would be the con- struction of the beach house . This will involve the drilling of a water well and the installation of a septic system. These should be done be- fore the actual construction of the building begins . Then the trail system to connect the beach area with the parking lots will be necessary . Mr. Davidson outlined the procedure for the preparation and construction of this system. This would then cover the first phase of construction . The Second phase would include the roadway system and parking lots . Mr. Davidson explained the steps necessary to construct the roadways . The Third phase , as suggested by Mr . Davidson , would be the installation of the trailer parking and the boat launch . There would be some extra work necessary in this area . The Fourth phase would be the construction of the picnic area . Mr. Davidson wondered if this phase should not be switched with phase three . Mr. Davidson suggested, in developing the picnic area , perhaps some area for shoreline fishing should be provided . He outlined the steps to be taken in the development of this area noting that the picnic tables should be either cement tables or cemented into a slab to prevent vandalism.
