Parks Commission Meeting 4-11-01 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />III. Rice Lake Park: A presentation of the site analysis was completed. The Commission directed SEH <br />to prepare concepts for park development at the park. Facilities could include soccer, softball, picnic <br />areas, and nature trails, ski trails, play grounds, small hard court surfaces, and facilities for a future <br />parks department of public works. <br />IV. Neighborhood Block Party: Nancy Chelmo shared information she had collected on neighborhood <br />block parties. The City will find out if special insurance is required but the decision was made to have <br />neighborhood parties this summer. The selected neighborhoods are Beaver Ponds, Sweet Grass <br />Meadows and Creek View Preserve. The schedule is a parry at Beaver Ponds in August and the other <br />two would happen in June and July. Nancy will coordinate with John to organize the parties. It was <br />noted that Vadnais Heights has a parry truck that they use, and rent, for this purpose. <br />VI. Bernin Property: The grant application was submitted. The commission discussed the need to meet <br />with the neighbors and discuss the project and parks in general in the City. These neighbors have <br />expressed opposition to the plan at the public hearing. The neighbors should be invited to one of the <br />next Park Commission members so that their concerns could be addressed in a very non -threatening <br />and open manner. <br />This is an interpretation of the events that happened at the meeting.
