Parks and Recreation Commission Minutes <br />January 26, 1989 <br />Page three <br />PICNIC SHELTER AT <br />SILVER VIEW PARK Director'Saarion stated that the <br />Mounds View Lion's Club was still <br />interested in constructing a picnic <br />shelter at Silver View Park. The <br />Lion's Club has formed a committee to <br />pursue the picnic shelter project. <br />Staff will keep the Commission <br />apprised of further progress on this <br />project. <br />RINK TOUR At this time, the meeting was <br />temporarily adjourned for a tour of <br />the rinks. <br />REVIEW 1989 <br />CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS Staff asked if the Commission had any <br />changes in the proposed capital <br />improvements as planned for 1989. <br />Commissioner Starr asked that additional <br />lighting be installed at Woodcrest <br />Park. Since funds for this <br />improvement is not included in the <br />1989 capital improvement plan, funds <br />must be budgeted for additional <br />lighting at Woodcrest. <br />Commissioners suggested that since we <br />are eliminating the volleyball court <br />at Lakeside (because it will be <br />constructed under the Spring Lake Park <br />Lion's project), we should construct <br />one at the Greenfield/Oakwood Park <br />site. Staff suggested that this item <br />be brought up at the March meeting <br />with residents. <br />ARCHERY RANGE Staff reviewed the possibility of <br />offering an archery range in Mounds <br />View. All Commissioners agreed that <br />current Mounds View parks do not have <br />the proper design to construct a safe <br />archery range. However, the idea of <br />future development of an archery range <br />in the almost acquired Miller <br />property, northeast of 610, was a <br />viable alternative. Until then, staff <br />should refer interested archers to the <br />Ramsey County archery range on <br />Lexington Avenue. <br />
