MINUTES <br /> CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA <br /> PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION <br /> TUESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1997 <br /> 6:00 P.M. <br /> CITY HALL <br /> CALL TO ORDER <br /> Lynette Kreidler called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. <br /> ROLL CALL <br /> Present were Chair Lynette Kreidler, Megan Ricke, Don Messerly, Dorothy McClung, <br /> Anita Larson, Jim Johnson, Cindy Walsh; Parks and Recreation Director and Council Liaison; <br /> Susan Keim. <br /> Absent were Tracy Petersen; Program Supervisor, Mary Robinson and Lou Speggen. <br /> APPROVE MINUTES <br /> • Dorothy McClung made a motion to approve the June 24, 1997, Minutes which was seconded <br /> by Megan Ricke and passed unanimously. <br /> COUNCIL REPORT <br /> Councilmember Keim reported that the Gateway Business District is running into a few snags. <br /> They have found out that the soils are very poor. The excavating costs are higher than <br /> anticipated. This is delaying the building process. The land transfers have not been finalized. <br /> The building of 14th street is on hold. <br /> The City is in the process of reviewing proposals for engineering services. We may select a <br /> different engineering firm for future services. The City is upset by the plans that were drawn <br /> up for the Bethel sewer odor. The plans did not reflect the current conditions. <br /> The City is pending litigation with Midwest Asphalt for the construction of County Road F. <br /> HIGHWAY 96 CONSTRUCTION UPDATE <br /> The County seems unwilling to discuss options for the trail location along Highway 96. <br /> Apparently, they do not see the safety concerns that have been identified by the City as being <br /> legitimate. Staff and Council continue to work with County officials to develop a safe trail for <br /> all to use. <br /> • <br />
