The meeting will be brief, since we will be meeting with the Trailways Advocacy Groupat 7: 00p.m. I will be showing the video tape of ,the Regional Senior Community Center and I will give a brief report of the Task Force. I have met with the Fridley Trailways Committee and have heard a report from Dave Torkildson, Anoka County Parks and Recreation Director regarding Anoka County plans for trailways. The information will be exciting to you because there are many plans for future bicycle trails. With a little planning the City of Mounds View can network with these pathways. Also, I would like to brief you on a number of grants that I 0 currently am working on. They are due by February 7th and 14th so this is probably the first and last review that you will get 1 regarding the grants. If you are unable to attend the meeting, please notify me at 784- 3055.
