<br />I <br /> CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: November 21,1997 <br />I TO: Brian Fritsinger, City Administrator 1'./ ~ <br />I FROM: Cindy S, Walsh, Parks and Recreation Director l\ <br /> SUBJECT: November Department Report <br />. Ramsev Countv Sheriff Chore Proli:ram <br />I I have been working with the Sheriffs office and the Community Affairs Officers (CAO) to have <br /> juveniles sentenced to community service hours do tasks for the Parks and Recreation <br /> Department They work only on weekends, so tasks have to be outdoors or in areas where the <br />I CAO supervisors have access. I have had them paint and clean the inside of warming houses and <br /> pick up garbage in the parks, They will be doing more work for us and the Public Works <br /> Department when appropriate. <br />I GBD Round Lake Trail <br /> BRW has surveyed the approximately 500 feet of proposed trail abutting Phase I of the Welsh <br />Ie development I am working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to obtain a right-of-way <br /> easement on their property, I will have to write and submit an application, environmental <br /> assessment and an environmental action memorandum. I will be working on these items in <br />. December. <br />I Cooperative Trails Grant for the trail bv Citv Hall <br /> I have turned in the necessary paper work for reimbursement for the trail development that <br /> occurred in 1996 and 1997. The DNR has reimbursed the City for the agreed upon grant amount <br />I of $46, 183,78, <br /> Dan Vauli:han Park Dedication Neli:otiation <br />I I have talked with Dan Vaughan about the possibility of changing the location of the dedicated <br /> property. It has come to my attention that Mr. Vaughan has never conveyed the property to the <br /> City and is still paying taxes on it He had not conveyed the property because until recently he <br />I still had a mortgage on the property, When Mr. Vaughan had the tower constructed, the City <br /> negotiated park dedication in an area where I assume they intended to develop a park. The <br /> current park area is not large enough for a park without future dedication or property acquisition, <br />I My intent is to acquire property in a 20 foot wide area along Round Lake for future trail <br /> development, Mr. Vaughan is amenable to this proposed change. I will keep you informed as I <br />I proceed. <br />rft 1 <br />I <br /> ---.---.- <br />
