OM11 <br />EUV <br />"Quite Simply the Best" <br />March 8, 1994 <br />Dear Mr. Edwards: <br />Phone: (612) 784-3055 <br />Fax: (612) 784-3462 <br />It was nice to meet you at the Council Work Session last evening. <br />I look forward to your participation in ice -making next winter. <br />Your participation in ice -making will be greatly appreciated and <br />I hope that it will result in adequate ice for your liking. <br />I am following through with the request from the City Council for <br />names and addresses of Mounds View participants in Lake Region <br />Hockey. In addition, please send the entire player statistics of <br />the Lake Region Hockey Association including the total number of <br />youth in each age division, as well as the numbers and overall <br />percentage of participation from each city including Shoreview, <br />Arden Hills, New Brighton, North Oaks, Vadnais Heights and <br />Roseville and Mounds View or whatever cities are included in the <br />Lake Region Hockey Association. This is standard information <br />that the City receives from all athletic associations. In <br />addition, please send copies of the scheduled practices and games <br />of teams and divisions, including indoor ice time and outdoor ice <br />time. <br />My son plays in the Centennial Hockey Association, and close <br />friends and other family members play hockey in the Mounds View <br />Hockey Association. I am very familiar with the structure and <br />practice and game schedules of the various hockey associations. <br />I am an advocate of youth athletics, hockey being one such <br />program. However, I am also entrusted to spend the City of <br />Mounds View's designated park tax dollars in ways that are of <br />greatest benefit to the majority. Therefore, citizen groups such <br />as the Parks and Recreation Commission, neighborhood groups, and <br />Task Forces are appointed to provide that citizen input. <br />Facility user statistics and surveys are also used as tools to <br />"keep in touch" with the needs and desires of the community <br />regarding park facilities and programs. Staff and Council strive <br />to carry out the requests of these groups when resources and <br />funding is available. Quite frankly, in the past 8-10 years, <br />outdoor hockey facilities has not been in great demand in the <br />City of Mounds View. In contrast, I know that the cities of <br />�PR5aYIMT,01NK YR►H ��� <br />�nni u��ti,.,-,,, in e�,.�..,a� �i,,,,., nnni �c„� innn <br />
