Parks, Trails & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes January 19, 2022 <br />Page 5 <br /> <br /> <br />Committee Member Poelzer suggested that reviewing and making recommendations for the <br />website could be a goal. She’d like to see it be more robust for parks and trails, and recreation. <br /> <br />After further discussion it was decided to bring the workplan forward to the next meeting and <br />present to the City Council in March. <br /> <br />4. NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />A. Election of a Committee Chair and Reappointments <br /> <br />Staff Liaison Vaughan stated there were four reappointments to the PTRC; Jill Anderson, Dan <br />Dietz, Marie Hinton and Tim Nelson. <br /> <br />The four committee members were sworn in. <br /> <br />Marie Hinton was nominated to be Committee Chair, and unanimously approved by the <br />Committee. <br /> <br />5. REPORTS <br /> <br />Council Liaison Scott said he’d been on the City Council since 2017 and served many years on <br />PTRC.
