Mr. Parrish presented several slides that illustrated similar band <br /> shells/performance pavilions in the Twin Cities area. Mr. Parrish also presented <br /> several potential location options in Arden Hills, one of which was the property <br /> directly to the east of City Hall. He mentioned the possibility of a cooperative <br /> venture with Mounds View High School. He noted Guidant requested some <br /> direction from the Council within the next several weeks. Mr. Parrish noted that <br /> locating a band shell/pavilion nearer to City Hall may be practical from a noise and <br /> cost issue. <br /> Councilmember Holden suggested cooperative dialogue on this topic be <br /> introduced at an Arden Hills Parks, Trails and Recreation Committee meeting. <br /> Mayor Aplikowski said locating a band shell in a residential neighborhood would <br /> . not be a good idea, and her favorite location for the pavilion was near City Hall. <br />
