Mrs. Brisson and Mrs. LeTourneau toured the parks and areas that in#g;it possible be acquired for parks in the fi,ture and presented their report. The possibility of bike paths were discussed �,,d the areas where they could be put in. The regljiremnts for bike trai 1s are 6 to 8' for a one way path and 10 to 12l feet for a two way nat:i. Also the trai Is must be striped and posted. The DNR wi I I pay 65% r;f the cost of a bike trail system if they approve of the overa; I p!on. The cost estimates for bike trai is run from $4,200 per mile where only a addition of 4' is required to $8,000 per mi le and more depending on what is requi red. The suggestion to have multi purpose parks was brought up. it was �eceided that any new parks or the upgrading of existing parks should be deigned with all seasons and all sports in mind. To have parks that can only be used during one season or for one sport is adding too much to the cost of a park system and sh�:.'� ba avoided if at al possible.
