Approval of Minutes from June Meeting <br /> Moore-Arcand made a motion, Clarke seconded to approve the minutes of the June 21, 2017 Parks <br /> Commission meeting as presented. <br /> All Ayes. Motion carried. <br /> 2. Comprehensive Plan Update <br /> Kendra Lindahl and Mary Matze from Landform, Inc were in attendance to provide the Parks Commission <br /> with updates and developments on the 2040 Comprehesive Plan. Matze shared with the Commissioners the <br /> responses gathered from the public at the August 8, 2017 Parks Open House which was held to gain an <br /> understanding of the public's priorities for park development. Responses showed that trails, safe trail <br /> connections, and active recreation amenities are important and that land acquisition isn't a top priority. <br /> With attendance at the open house being low,a new online survey will be posted for residents providing <br /> them with an additional opportunity to share their ideas. <br /> Using input gathered from prior meetings and open houses a draft of the Parks,Trails and Open Space <br /> Chapter has been prepared. Key updates contained in the draft include that information is more organized, <br /> there are clearly defined guiding principles, and updated location criteria has been added. <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> Parks Commission Minutes <br /> August 16,2017 <br />
