Approved Planning Commission and JDA meeting minutes are also <br />attached. <br /> <br />On April 21, 2014, the City Council discussed recommendations from the Parks, Trails, and <br />Recreation Committee (PTRC) for amenities needed within each park area. The PTRC <br />recommendations, which were accepted by the City Council, can be summarized as follows: <br /> Park areas in neighborhoods should include play structures, a gazebo, and off-street <br />parking (located either in lots or in bump-outs along the public street); <br /> Parks should be located nearer to center or at the entrance to residential neighborhoods so <br />that park traffic is not routed through the neighborhood; <br /> An adult athletic facility (softball and hockey) should be located adjacent to a County <br />road. This facility should be lighted and ideally will have shared parking with adjacent <br />businesses. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br />
