Mayor Hankner also asked for clarification of how the pipeline would be handled, and she requested the pipeline and two parks be added as an addendum to the report. Councilmember Paone joined the meeting at 7:15 PM. Mr. Minetor stated he would ask the County to do an addendum. Bill Frits, 8072 Long Lake Road, questioned whether there would be a public hearing on this. He also questioned what the feasibility study entails, pointing out it already has errors in it, and suggesting the City not approve it until it is correct. Mayor Hankner replied they need to get those items included and any approval would be contingent upon . the inclusion of the corrections. Mr. Minetor explained a public hearing would be required by the Board of Ramsey County Commissioners and they would like the City to work with them in that, which he believes would be some time in the fall. He clarified that they are looking for acceptance, not approval, at this time. Mayor Hankner directed Mr. Minetor to send a letter to the County concerning the errors and ommissions in the report.

Jerry Linke, of Kraus Anderson, reviewed the plan of the applicant for his business, and indicated where it would be located in the shopping center. He noted they have had many problems with the way the zoning code is written and what is allowed and what is not allowed. Councilmember Paone stated that as long as it is not a retail outlet sale, he has no problem with it. Councilmember Wuori clarified that it will be a retail outlet, but the inventory will be off site. Mayor Hankner closed the public hearing and reopened the regular meeting at 7:29 PM. • Motion/Second: Paone/Wuori to have the first reading of Ordinance No. 487, amending the Municipal Code of Mounds View by amending Chapter 40 entitled "Zoning", and waive the reading. 5 ayes 0 nays Mayor Hankner closed the regular meeting and opened the next public. hearing at 7:31 PM.

The costs are estimates, and the work would be done as the money is available. Ms. Saarion reviewed the work to be done, including the installation of a-new backstop. That would put the project over budget by $666, but the MVAA would be willing to contribute that amount. If this is approved tonight, work could begin this summer. Wayne Burmeister, of the Park and Rec Commission, stated the Commission has not had an opportunity to review everything, but they have given conceptual approval. Motion Carried 14.

The Spring Lake Park City Council joined the Mounds View City Council when the meeting was called back to order at 8:05 PM, for a joint public hearing to con- sider the proposal of the Spring Lake Park Lion's Club to rename Lakeside Park. The Spring Lake Park Council was introduced as Councilmembers Mason, Mathiowetz, Conde, Carlson and Mayor Wells. Mayor Hankner declared the public hearing as opened and welcomed the Spring Lake Park Council and explained the purpose for holding the joint public hearng. • Bill Stuart, 857 Valentine, introduced himself as a representive from the Lion's Club and explained why they are asking for a name change. He noted in the past the Lion's have not gone out and asked for Motion Carried 18. Public Hearing: Consideration of Proposal of Spring Lake Park Lion's Club to Rename Lakeside Park 'M,ounds View City Council June 11, 1990 Regular Meeting Page Eight -------------------------------------------------------------------------- • recognition for what they have done, but they are now experiencing difficulties in getting new members because people do not know what the Lion's organization is all about. The international organization has agreed they need to get recognition. He noted the Lion's Club is a very community minded organization, where the community comes first, then they go outside to support needs elsewhere. Mr. Stuart noted that many of the things the Lion's Club does cannot have a name put on it, but something like Lakeside Park would be good name recognition. He clarified they are not asking to take over the park, and they do not want to take it over, they just want some recognition there. He also thanked those in the past who have worked on the park. Mr. Stuart stated he felt some type of recognition should be put up in the park, giving credit to all who have worked on it. Additional work toward completion of what the Lion's Club is doing at the park will begin soon, to include the ballpark, pathway, seating, etc. They also hope to put up a fishing dock at some point in the future. He noted the Lion's Club has give over $235,000 to the park in the past few years, and that amount will soon be close to $250,000. Bob Helseth, 7666 Knollwood Drive, questioned if they want to put their name on top. Mr. Stuart replied they want in some manner to insert the name Lion's, whether it would read Lakeside Lion's Park or Lion's Lakeside Park. Mr. Helseth suggested putting the name on the side, on a plaque or something else, and not including it in the parks name. Mayor Wells questioned if Mr. Helseth had an objection to having the name included in the park name. Mr. Helseth replied he does, as he feels the Lion's are pushing the older people who worked on the park aside. Mayor Wells suggested some type of listing of all the people who contributed to the park, thereby also giving recognition to those who started the park. Mr. Helseth noted there would be many people to list. He further stated he does not want to see the Lion's name associated with the park name, pointing out that . neither Mounds View nor Spring Lake Park have included their names. Mounds View City Council June 11, 1990 Regular Meeting Page Nine -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Councilmember Conde gave a history of Lakeside Park and the many people who were involved in its develop- ment. He stated he does not favor changing the name, but would favor a large sign on the bath house giving .credit to the Lion's Club. He stated he has nothing against the Lion's, and he is a member himself. He also noted it was not unanimous among the Spring Lake Park Lion's Club members that the name change should occur. Marv Johnson, 7964 Spring Lake Park Road, stated he has lived in the area since the 1940s, and he reviewed the history of the park and the involvement of many people. He stated he does not feel the Lion's Club should be given full credit for the park, but rather the community should receive the credit. He agrees the Lion's Club could have their name somewhere in the park, but they should not be given more credit than just being associated with it. He added they should be commended for their generosity but he noted many groups and individuals have given money for the park. He also pointed out in 25-40 years, if someone else makes a good contribution they could request the name be changed again. • Ruth White, 2917 County Road I, stated she feels it takes a lot of guts for the Lion's Club to feel they are so generous that they need a park named in their honor. She stated the .park belongs to the people, not the Lion's Club. She noted many people have donated money and time. She agrees they should be credited for the good work they do, but does not feel the park should be named after them. She added if they are that good of an organization, they will have good name recognition. She further suggested they could be named on a specific building, but not in the park name itself. Bill Frits reviewed the history of the park, back to the time when the City was a township, and the development of the park system overtime. The decision was made a long time ago to not give name definitions to the parks, but rather name them by location, and nothing else. He noted many people have been involved in the development of Lakeside Park, and he equated it as being similar to the community effort expended in building the playground at Pinewood School. He stated the only difference in the bath house is that it was built with community money, not community involvement. He added he completely supports the Lion's organization but is opposed to renaming the park, as it is not a Lion's park but rather the peoples park. ~M,ounds View City Council June 11, 1990 Regular Meeting Page Ten -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Councilmember Blanchard reviewed the history of the park, taken from the booklet on Mounds View history. She noted how it tells of the residents of the area working together and building the park, and that they did not just contribute money but also built it them- selves, and also maintained it. She stated she feels it is self gratification that is taking the place of commitment with the Lion's Club, and that you cannot put monetary value on this. She also stressed that the Lion's Club did not build the park but rather enhanced it. .She noted there is a beautiful plaque going up, giving recognition, and changing the name is wrong, as it was the citizens of Mounds View and Spring Lake Park who built the park, not the Lion's Club. Councilmember Paone stated Lion's International wants the local groups to get recognition, and for people to be aware of what they do. He noted they are a community service organization, active in community projects, and he sees nothing wrong with a plaque or sign in the park but he does not feel the name needs to be changed. He stated it would be different if the ground was bought and developed by the Lion's Club, but it wasn't. He added they are a very good organization, but he does not approve of changing the historical name. Councilmember Conde stated he would like to thank Bob Helseth, who gave him the records .and history of the park. Laurie Helseth, 7666 Knollwood, stated many women have given a good deal of time to the park also. The work was done by many individuals, and Lakeside Park should remain Lakeside Park. It is a community name and should stand. Councilmember Mason noted many Lion's Clubs have nice signs upon entering a city, and asked if something similar would be appropriate to place at the park. Mr. Stuart replied it strikes him that it would appear the Lion's Club is trying to take over the park. He again stated the Lion's Club needs new members to keep going. Councilmember Carlson stated she didn't feel people would understand what Lion's Lakeside Park would mean, and she didn't believe people would associate it with the club. She added she feels greater recognition would come from having an emblem posted. ` Mounds View City Council Regular Meeting ---------------------------------- • Councilmember Wuori stated if the recognition, it would be better to people doing the work, and make it licity campaign and not just a one park. June 11, 1990 Page Eleven ------------------------------------- Lion's Club needs show pictures of an on-going pub- time sign in the Mr. Stuart stated they do not get enough recognition that way. They have had a lot of publicity in the newspapers, but not that many have seen it. He noted this would be for the betterment of the community, to be able to get new members to keep the work going in the community. Councilmember Blanchard stated that if recognition is needed, a plaque should cover it, with the name, emblem, and so forth, and she. questioned why that isn't enough. Mr. Stuart replied not many will see it, but if their name was on the sign at the entrance to the park, it would be much more visible. Councilmember Mathiowetz stated that for all the years when the park was first created until it formally became Lakeside Park: the name wasn't • that important, and he questioned why it has become so important now, and what would be so terrible with changing the name. He stated he agrees the Lion's Club did not start or build the park, but they did enhance it. He stated the Lion's Club has donated funds and effort again this year to enhance the park, and are now working on the ball- field. He stated just because they weren't there at the front end they should not be penalized at this time. He also stated he feels there is an aversion to the name. He is a member of the Spring Lake Park Lion's Club and understands the importance of getting the name out. He feels the Councils are making too strong an issue out of this, and there should be a sign at the entrance giving credit to the Spring Lake Park Lion's Club for improvements made to the park. He added he does not have a problem with adding the Lion's name to the name of the park. Mayor~rWells stated he had heard both sides of the issue and could support much of what Councilmember Mathiowetz had said. He agreed there is a lot of history in the park but he did not know how either city would have come up with the money for the improvements that have been done to the park. He . pointed put the Lion's Club is willing to fill the gap and he feels the name addition would be a commitment from the Lion's Club for many years down the road, and he very much supports the addi- " Mounds View City Council June 11, 1990 Regular Meeting Page Twelve -------------------------------------------------------------------------- tion of the Lion's name, to"Lakeside Lion's Park - by and for the people of Mounds View and Spring Lake Park". Mayor Hankner stated she was concerned about the loss of local government aid, but she did not feel the Lion's Club was in a position to make any long term commitment in any part, as their funds are not certain either, and charitable gambling could change at any time. She noted the attitude and value of the community has been stressed tonight. She noted the Lion's Club is seeking recognition and she .supports that but is not convinced a name change of the park will do it, `She pointed out. the state has added a community service credit for high schools, which. could be a possibility for the Lion's Club to go into the high schools. She added she would be supportive of a sign or emblem, but not a name change. Mr. Stuart replied the Lion's Club does a lot in the schools alxeady in the way of scholorships, drug awareness and. sQ forth. Mr. F'rits noted the lake name is officially Wood Lake. • He added he .feels charitable gambling will cause many problems in ..the future. Mayor We11s stated many people are not familiar with the name Lakeside Park and he does not feel a name change would affect many, other than those who originally worked on it. He agreed charitable gambling is not here forever, but he does not feel a name change takes something away. Councilmember Conde pointed out the VFW has done much in the park. also. He added the Lion's Club is a great organization and he feels a special sign, the largest allowed by code, giving credit to the Lion's for build- ing would give the. greatest recogniti©n. He also questipnec~ what would happen with. the name in the future if the Lion's Club could not support the park. Mayor Hankner noted the park is under a joint powers agreement. Clerk./Administrator Pauley advised both Councils would have. to act separately, with each Council passing by a 3 to 2 vote. 3f both Councils do not approve a name change, the. issue dies. Mayor Hankner closed the public hearing and reopened the regular meeting at 9:25 PM.
