7A <br />Silver View Park <br />The Council authorized appraisals for a fifteen acre tract of Miner property at the <br />northeast corner of Silver Lake Road and County Road H2. Using Revenue Sharing <br />Funds, the land was purchased. A "Name the Park Contest" was held, thus the name <br />Silver View was chosen. <br />The Park Commission held discussions in 1973 regarding the possibility of hiring a <br />fulltime Park and Recreation Director. It was felt to provide an adequate program for the <br />residents of Mounds View, the position should be added to the City staff. A Job <br />description was written and the position was advertised. After reviewing applications <br />and interviewing candidates, Doug Bryant was named Mounds View Parks and <br />Recreation Director, effective March 1, 1974. Since that time the recreation program <br />that had been provided by School District 621 has been cut and it is necessary for each <br />community to provide their own. <br />The Commission has been encouraged to develop a bike trail system that would be part <br />of the Ramsey County System and used for jogging, hiking, and snowmobiling. Two <br />small sections of the City to be included are: 1) County Road I from Lexington Avenue <br />in Shoreview to Spring Lake and 2) Long Lake Road south into New Brighton. <br />In 1999 the City contracted with the YMCA to provide the Recreation for the Parks <br />Department. <br />3� - <br />
