Lino Lakes Parks and Recreation Department <br />600 Town Center Parkway <br />Lino Lakes, MN 55014 <br />(651) 982 -2440 Fax (651) 982 -2439 <br />www.ci.lino - lakes.mn.us <br />iv. b <br />July 2, 2003 <br />TO: Park Board Members <br />FROM: Rick DeGardner, Public Services Director <br />SUBJECT: 2003 Goals Update <br />Clearwater Creek Park <br />Final grading was completed, 6 ADA trail entrance ramps and 4 bench pads were poured, silt <br />fence was removed from park perimeter, and irrigation system installed. The basketball court is <br />scheduled to be completed by the end of July. Park benches should also be installed sometime <br />this month. The entire park area will be seed bed prepped and seeded in early to mid August. <br />Highland Meadows Park <br />Turf areas and native areas have been seeded and mulched. The irrigation system has been <br />installed. Unfortunately, we have encountered several problems with the seeding contractor. <br />Several irrigation heads were damaged and several sections of the trail were damaged during the <br />site preparation and seeding process. Staff is very disappointed with the work done by the trail <br />contractor last fall and the seeding contractor this spring. We will strive to make the best out of a <br />bad situation. <br />A torrential rain received last week caused extensive erosion on the sloped areas. In addition to <br />reseeding several of the prairie areas, we expect to regrade and reseed the seeded turf areas this <br />fall. The sodded areas and the replacement of trees and shrubs should be completed by July 4. <br />Pheasant Hills Northeast Trail <br />Staff is still waiting for a final determination on the plans for the new residential subdivision in <br />Centerville. I will keep you posted as information becomes available. <br />Birch Park — Open Air Shelter <br />This project is scheduled to commence this fall. <br />Behm's Park — Half Court Basketball <br />This project is scheduled to commence this fall. <br />Sunrise Park — Pave Parking Lots <br />Staff met with a representative from TKDA last month; a survey crew is scheduled to begin the <br />process of developing plans. This project should be completed this fall. <br />Pursue Full Court Basketball at Rice Lake Elementary <br />The attached letter was sent to the School District on June 12, 2003.
