Page 2 of 7 <br /> <br />Committee Member Poelzer introduced the following corrections: <br />• Page 6, Item 4B Trails and Parks Projects Update, fourth bullet, change the word <br />“understanding” to “under”. <br /> <br />Committee Member Kelliher moved, seconded by Committee Member Poelzer, to approve of the <br />minutes as corrected. Motion passed unanimously, 11-0. <br /> <br />3. REPORTS <br />Council Member Rousseau reported: <br />• Update on Hazelnut Park sledding hill. Public Works Department is planning on prepping the <br />hill for winter sledding. <br />• Triangle Park – City staff are working on a resolution to bring to Council for Sept 25 meeting. <br />• Council Work Sessions have been full and the Personnel Committee is taking up the <br />Volunteer Appreciation subject as well. <br />• Communications Manager Cardona will be working on 2024 city website update plans, so <br />now is the time to coordinate with him if PTRC would like to be a part of those <br />conversations. Committee Member Olson asked about other options to CivicRec for <br />Recreation sign-ups. Recreation Supervisor Johnson said that making a change is being <br />investigated, the need for change is understood at the City level. <br />• Council Member Munson suggested that the PTRC consider Lindy’s Park as a park with <br />opportunities for improvements. She will be at our next meeting to discuss ADA <br />accommodations made during the recent round-a-bout construction so this topic could be <br />discussed during the October meeting. <br />• Gateway Visitor’s Bureau is a new funding source this year, we received $15,800 to be used <br />for marketing activities that draw visitors from outside of the city to Arden Hills. Split the <br />funds between Bethel University Homecoming and Family Weekend and Rib Fest <br />Marketing. Be aware that while the amount may vary these funds could potentially be used <br />for some of the PTRC future goals. <br />Committee Member Olson asked who the decision makers are for funds distribution. <br />Council Member Rousseau indicated that the Council discussed the options at a work <br />session and then voted at the next regular meeting. The Bethel marketing option was <br />brought forth by Mayor Grant. <br />• Council amended an ordinance to make the city properties, including parks, smoke free <br />(cannabis and tobacco). <br />• Communications – 9North determines programming. Any productions presented for <br />consideration would be considered more favorably if they include other communities in their <br />broadcasting area. <br />Committee Member Olson asked who 9North represents. Council Member Rousseau <br />responded that they are a non-profit entity that the City contracts with and all contracted <br />cities are represented on the 9North website and cable station. <br />• The Council is requesting a Standard Operating Procedure for PTRC information releases to <br />be included in the newsletter, on Facebook or any other communication methods. The <br />proposed submissions would require a motion to receive full PTRC approval and if approved <br />would then be submitted to Communications Manager Cardona for distribution. <br />• Committee Member Edgar inquired as to the nature of 9North’s broadcasting. Council <br />Member Rousseau delineated the public access TV channel and the work that they do to <br />record and edit public city meetings and work sessions.
