ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JANUARY 17, 2023 12 <br /> <br />Councilmember Monson suggested Parkshore Exercise Trail Loop. <br /> <br />Councilmember Fabel asked if the city had looked into finding someone to contribute to have <br />their name put on a park. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant stated this park was built and paid for by the senior living facility. There have been <br />contributors to the park such as the pavilion at Cummings Park that was built by Boston <br />Scientific. The park dedication fees on land goes into the fund to help maintain parks. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rousseau asked if this was the same process that was used to name other parks? <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault said the same naming convention would have been followed. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant preferred a name that contained Parkshore. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden added that she would like to see plenty of benches at the park. <br /> <br />Councilmember Monson thought the name should come from the PTRC. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden wanted to have something in the name about the park being for seniors. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rousseau said as the new PTRC liaison she would like to discuss the name with <br />the committee. <br /> <br />After further discussion it was agreed to have the Council Liaison take it back to the PTRC again, <br />noting the Council would prefer to use Parkshore instead of Round Lake in the name. <br /> <br />I. Council Liaison Appointments <br /> <br />After discussion, appointments suggested for approval were: <br />EDC - ad-hoc group with no liaison <br />Karth Lake District – ad-hoc group with the Public Works Director as liaison unless there were <br />budgeting issues that would affect the City <br />Ramsey County Local League – Mayor, with all other Councilmembers as alternates <br />Cable Commission – Steve Scott <br /> <br />Point of order was called at 8:28 p.m. with a vote to extend the meeting for ½ hour. <br /> <br />J. Public Inquiries Language <br /> <br />Mayor Grant noted that the Public Inquiry portion of the agenda was written by the City <br />Attorney and they may want to add input to revise and/or shorten the wording. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rousseau thought three minutes per person was appropriate for a limit on <br />comments. <br /> <br />Councilmember Fabel said he liked the statement that Shoreview uses. He also didn’t like the <br />prohibition on matters of litigation.
