Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission of the City of Hugo <br /> Minutes of July 30, 1998 <br /> Kathy Marier - Chair <br /> David Strub <br /> Robin LaCasse <br /> Nancy Chelmo <br /> Pete Pedersen - Vice-Chair <br /> Debra Barnes <br /> Sydney Harrison <br /> 1. Welcome. All members were introduced. All members present except for Sydney <br /> Harrison. <br /> 2. Park by the City Hall - Lions Park - playground equipment. Laurie McRostie of OSM <br /> was introduced and shown the planned improvements to the playground area at the <br /> park. All members voice voted YES to go before the City Council and make the <br /> recommendation to purchase the equipment listed on the second page of the agenda. <br /> A space concern included the area by the road that could accomodate handicapped <br /> accessibility.

Members are to look it over carefully and think about a consistent strategy <br /> that will be used by the commission to serve the Hugo community. Plans for 1 year, 2 <br /> years, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years need to be addressed. Looking at the Master Park <br /> Plan there are seven areas encircled as neighborhood areas that need to be <br /> considered. Neighborhood community needs should be considered for each section. <br /> The City of Hugo as a whole needs to be considered also. <br /> Suggestions at this time, included improving athletic facilities with small playgrounds <br /> close by and making recommendations for future land areas that need to be sought for <br /> future athletic/park areas. It was noted that Washington County is thinking of a Light <br /> Rail System now and not a Trail System. Park system planning by Washington County <br /> should be taken into consideration also. Any other suggestions will be taken at the <br />
