PARK BOARD <br /> February 3 , 1986 <br /> Pa e Four <br /> kD <br /> D. ERICKSON BUILDINGS PLAT <br /> Mr. Volk showed the Park Board members the proposed plat for <br /> 99 homes off Birch Street (across from Lakes Addition) . At <br /> this point this plat is shown as fuel for thought . It has <br /> only begun the procedure of consideration by the Planning and <br /> Zoning Board and City Council . No decision with regard to <br /> park property needs to be made at this time . <br /> OLD BUSINESS <br /> Mr. Nissen asked if the St . Paul Water .Works Department is , <br /> still leasing a piece of land near Baldw*n Lakejto the City. <br /> Mr. Volk thought that the City was still leasing the land and <br /> that St . Paul Water Works asked about a year ago if the City <br /> wanted to purchase the land at quite a high price and the City <br /> was not interested, thus the land is still leased at one dollar <br /> per year. <br /> NEW BUSINESS <br /> Ray Johnson passed on an idea he has which could create more <br /> parks for the City. Presently the School District owns approxi- <br /> mately 40 acres near Elm Street and 60 acres off Birch Street <br /> for future school needs . Mr. Johnson suggested approaching the <br /> School Board to see if they would be open to having the City <br /> develop a playground, ballfields , etc . on these properties which <br /> could be used until the School District needed to build on the <br /> property. There were no objections by Board members . Mr. Johnson <br /> will go ahead and approach the School Board with this idea and <br /> report back to the Park Board at their next meeting. <br /> The meeting adjourned at 9 : 10 by motion from Ken Johnson, seconded <br /> by Mr. Lindy. Aye. <br />
