Master Plan for Gateway Gardens We discussed recommending to improve Lexington& E2 (southside) in 1997. Members discussed postponing the County Road E2 & Old Highway 10 garden until - 1997 when the townhome construction would be completed. Lynette Kriedler suggested that we may want to look at the banners on County Road E. Maybe we can get a 4 season banner and get the businesses involved in the venture as well. The 5 Year Capital Plan would include a flower garden update each year. 1996 Goals 1. To continue soliciting more funds for Perry Park improvements and playstructure and to replenish the park fund. 2. To continue to stay actively involved with TCAAP park planning. 3. To continue with trail expansion; including possible Met Council approval to assist with grant process and other funding/grant sources. 4. Be more pro-active on Handicap\Disabilities issues as they relate to the parks & activities. 5. To continue to aggressively work with Ramsey County towards getting the necessary improvements completed to Tony Schmidt Park. 6. To revise 5 Year Plan as necessary, including the Gateway Garden Plan. Review of Trail Segment Priorities Letters were sent to the neighborhoods abutting the trail easement for the December meeting regarding trail improvements. This letter let the residents know the prioritization of segments along the proposed trail. Letters will also go out to the North and South Association groups. COUNCIL REPORT Council Liaison, Susan Keim was absent TCAAP UPDATE Anita Larson attended Ramsey County Parks and Recreation Commission meeting and expressed concern about Tom Landwehr's presentation at the meeting. She felt that it was inappropriate for him to be there and present. Anita felt the meeting was "staged" for purposes of County recommendations at that meeting. 2
