x <br /> Lino Lakes Park Board Meeting - 5/6/96 <br /> Good Evening! I'm Pat Huelman, my address is 570 Lonesome Pine Trail. <br /> I have been asked to speak on behalf of a large group of Park Grove <br /> residents. We have signatures representing 24 addresses on a the letter that <br /> you shaould have received from Marty. Many of these homeowners are here <br /> tonight. I don't normally read a statement, but tonight I want to make sure <br /> my points are accurate, clear, and as brief as possible. <br /> I would like to begin by saying we are not opposed to a neighborhood park. <br /> In fact we all look forward to using this park with our children and meeting <br /> our new neighbors. We all built homes in this area knowing that someday <br /> this would be a "neighborhood park". However, we were also told that we <br /> would have a voice in what went into the park and where things would be <br /> located, and were specifically told that those most adversely affected by the <br /> park would be given a significant voice. <br /> Our biggest complaint has the been the process that has been used to this <br /> point. It has caused headaches and stomachaches for alot of people -- and <br /> I suspect Marty has had more than his fair share as well. The process and <br /> ^ end product have end up pitting neighbors and neighborhoods against one <br /> another. <br /> Point 1. I think the best way to get at the heart of our concerns is to <br /> contrast the original plan with the current concept plan. There were some <br /> huge shifts that are significantly changing the nature of the park and the <br /> impact on our neighborhood. <br /> Original schematic plan <br /> A defined primary entry and parking off a major arterial road <br /> A central core with up to five equal entry points <br /> Activities that would attract vehicles were close to parking <br /> Open area reserved for larger activities, informal ball field & <br /> general recreation area <br /> New concept plan <br /> Almost all of the major activities were moved to the north and <br /> west area. And if that wasn't enough <br /> At last meeting discussion of picnic shelter on the <br /> northwest corner and <br /> At meeting before that there was even mention of moving <br /> the skating to the pond <br />
