4¢, MEMO Rns Mounds View Park & Recreation Commissioners FROM: BruGe`K. n, Director Parks,• Re r ti n and Eorestry DATE: January 28, 1986 RE: Joint Meetinq with New eriqhton Park Bnard StdFf Eorwarded a letter in the January 22 correspondence whici indieated an invitation from the New 8righton Park Bnard t holrt a joint park nard meeting with the City of New Brighton on Tues- day, February ll. One of the major topic items will be Long Lakr Regional Park, which will be presented by the New Briqhton Park and Recreation Board, but they have also asked ear.h of the other Park Boards to provide an issue of discussion for the group at large. To that end. I would like to propose that the Park Com- mission hold a general discussion on items that could be revieweci and suggest the following items as possfble topic areas: 1. The Long Range Facility Usage Task Force would be a curren! relevent topic which I feel miqht be appropriate for Mound>. View to provide the impetus in this discussion since th EdgewoodiCommunity Center'is located in our Cir_y. 2. The Cities of Mounds View and New Brighton have entered int-, a numher'of joint powers aqreements incTuding Earestry, puP- pet wagon anci potentially aquatic, for jqint skaffinq. m _. Possibly some discussion 'could' be generated regardinq poss- ible joint powers aqreements-with--other_park and recreation agencies to im rove services at a lower pnssible cost. 3. The-concept of devel p.ng a School District-wide recreational survey to determine what recreational proqramming needs should be reviewed and analyzed on a distict-wide hasis. This an area that has never been accomplished other than a comnunity education survey that was done a pr.oximatety tw years ago, and,a possi.ble=study,on the recreational opportun- ities on a School District=wide basis would be of interest.
