Parks and Recreation Commission Minutes <br />March 16, 1989 <br />Page two <br />Referring to County maps, Mr. Mack <br />pointed out the many different types of <br />facilities Ramsey County Parks and <br />Recreation Department is responsible for <br />including regional parks, county parks, <br />ice arenas, open space and waterways. <br />Councilmember Wuori asked Mr. Mack if <br />there would be a trailway along Rice <br />Creek. Mr. Mack stated that both land <br />and water trails were planned for that <br />corridor and that funds were requested <br />to be funded during this biennium. <br />Councilmember Wuori asked when the trail <br />would be completed. Mr. Mack stated <br />that it would be done the same time the <br />north section was developed, but at this <br />time they are having difficulty working <br />out details with the Army regarding the <br />arsenal property. If those problems <br />cannot be ironed out, the trail would <br />probably be developed along with Long <br />Lake Regional Park. <br />Chairperson Burmeister thanked Mr. Mack <br />for his presentation. <br />CHAIRPERSON'S REPORT Chairperson Burmeister stated that the <br />bid opening for the Lakeside Park <br />beachhouse would be on March 17 in <br />Spring Lake Park. <br />COUNCILMEMBER'S REPORT Councilmember Wuori gave a brief update <br />on the progress of the Mounds View <br />Community Theater Board in preparation <br />for their summer production of "Sound of <br />Music". She also stated that the <br />Irondale High School theater would get <br />new air conditioning this summer. <br />OPEN DISCUSSION WITH <br />RESIDENTS REGARDING <br />IMPROVEMENTS AT <br />OAKWOOD PARK Chairperson Burmeister welcomed guests <br />to the meeting and asked for their <br />comments and suggestions for improvement <br />of Oakwood Park.
