Park Board Meeting <br /> July 16, 1990 <br /> developing a clear and concise understanding of the <br /> scope of the project. <br /> Don Volk stated that this would be a shot in the arm for Lino <br /> Lakes to be able to complete a comprehensive park plan now. <br /> This dives the park board flexibility, shows the city council <br /> and citizens of Lino Lakes that the city is concerned about <br /> the recreational areas in the city and planning for the <br /> future. The park board could arrange special work sessions <br /> during the planning of this park plan. This will be an <br /> excellent working tool. Don would like to see this put to <br /> use now. <br /> Marty and Don both have visited with cities that use their <br /> park plan and all say it is an excellent tool. <br /> Ray Johnson stated that development is happening in the city <br /> so fast that as a board member he isn't sure what should go <br /> into a park. He feels that if this plan can help incorporate <br /> the city trail system with the county trail system that it <br /> would be a great accomplishment. Ray stated that he thinks <br /> the city is short on athletic complexes. <br /> Mr. Schoenbauer stated that the city could purchase vacant <br /> land now for future parks while prices are still reasonable. <br /> The developer's are then aware of where the parks will be <br /> located. <br /> Sally Kuether asked to see the Inver Grove Heights Plan. Mr. <br /> Schoenbauer stated that he will make one available for <br /> review. He said that it may even be possible to tour one of <br /> the cities to see how they planned their park system. <br /> The board members all felt that this is a positive venture. <br /> MOTION: Candy Toffoli moved to recommend to the city council <br /> to authorize the park board to pursue the establishment of a <br /> comprehensive park plan. Also, to authorize the expenditure <br /> of a maximum of $1,000. This expenditure will establish the <br /> scope of, and the estimated cost of the comprehensive park <br /> plan. Ken Johnson seconded the motion and the motion was <br /> approved unanimously. <br /> The city council members are encouraged to attend this focus <br /> meeting. They will be notified. <br /> CONSIDERATION OF PARK DEDICATION FOR WILLOW PONDSIDENNIS <br /> ERICKSON <br /> There was no one present to address this issue. A letter was <br /> sent to the park board stating that a cash dedication is the <br /> recommended park dedication. The total amount at $400.00 per <br /> lot would be $10,800.00. <br /> Page 3 <br />
