Hugo, Minnesota Parks and Recreation Open Space Commission Minutes <br />June 14, 2006 <br />Page 2 <br />IV. Skate Park Committee Update (Roger Clarke) <br />Parks Commissioner Clarke provided an update on the latest developments with the skate park <br />committee. The committee has decided that the best location for the skate park would be at <br />Podvin Park in White Bear Lake. The committee has also directed the youth that have been <br />participating on the committee to form a club to help manage, maintain and raise funds for the <br />skate park. <br />V. Washington County — Open Space Funding Referendum <br />Cordelia Pierson with The Trust for Public Land was present at the meeting and provided the <br />Parks Commission with an overview of the Washington County Open Space Funding <br />Referendum that will be on the November 7, 2006 ballot. The purpose of the referendum is to <br />improve water quality, improve drinking water and to conserve property that is adjacent to rivers, <br />lakes and streams. It was noted that Hugo has been identified as one of only six communities <br />with the unique combination of greater than 3% population growth and 50% unprotected natural <br />resources. The referendum is for $20 million over 10 years and will cost the average tax payer <br />$25.88/year. The Parks Commission discussed the need for preservation and protection of the <br />City's natural resources, and asked how the funds would be allotted to individual communities <br />like Hugo if approved. <br />VI. Parks Commission Tour July 12, 2006 <br />For the last few years the Parks Commission has taken a tour in July to review the park projects <br />for that year and identify future projects and needs. In light of the recent City Bus Tour taken by <br />the City Council and all Commissions, the Parks Commission decided that it would be beneficial <br />to take the tour later this fall to see the progress on current park projects. Staff will work on <br />scheduling the tour in September or October 2006. <br />VII. Other: Public Works Director Chris Petree informed the Parks Commission that representatives <br />from the WBL ISD #624 Community Services and Recreation Department would be at the <br />August 9, 2006 meeting to discuss community and recreational programming opportunities for <br />residents of Hugo. <br />
