CITY OF LINO LAKES <br /> PARK BOARD MEETING <br /> MONDAY, APRIL 3, 1995 <br /> community. <br /> Jeff said this is a small parcel of property in the middle of the <br /> Pheasant Hills Development. It is surrounded by wetlands on a <br /> number of sides. The plan that he showed the park board is <br /> designed to try and stay within the developer budget of $18, 000 - <br /> $30, 000. The developer would like to budget in the $25, 000 range <br /> which will give them some flexibility when they start to develop <br /> this park. <br /> Jeff talked about the proposed and existing trail system, the <br /> horseshoe pit, grass volleyball area, picnic area, fire ring and <br /> a sizeable play structure. He said much of the area would be <br /> naturalized landscaping around the parameter. The developer <br /> feels there will not be a large number of small children in this <br /> area so they would like to downsize the playground structure and <br /> add a half court hard court area. <br /> Joe had questions about security in this park. Marty said low <br /> intensity lighting may be suggested. Sharon asked if we usually <br /> have lighting in mini parks. Marty said there is no security <br /> lighting in any mini parks. Jeff encouraged the Park Board to <br /> consider making policy on security issues. Amy asked about the <br /> species of trees in this area. Marty responded Ash, Aspen and <br /> Elm. There were also questions on the fire ring in this park. <br /> Amy said the developer should be recognized for what he is doing <br /> in this park not many developers are as generous as he is being. <br /> BRANDYWOOD PARK <br /> Marty asked about the status of Brandywood Park. George said <br /> this park has been put on hold until the base mapping is done. <br /> Jeff said he will be in the area in the next 2 weeks. George <br /> asked Jeff to contact Marty and let him know when he is going to <br /> be in the area so members could meet with him if they were <br /> available. <br /> BASE MAPPING <br /> Marty said in the future base mapping should be considered as <br /> part of the development. He said Park Grove wanted a scaled <br /> basemap in relationship to the houses and elements that can be <br /> moved around within the park. <br /> George said the base maps should be completed in time for the <br /> second meeting. It was important that the first meeting be an <br /> informational meeting and give the residents a change to meet <br /> staff people and Park Board members. <br /> 3 <br />
