Parks, Trails & Recreation Committee – February 17, 2026 Page 4 Committee Member Hilding asked who will be responsible for implementing the plan once it’s finalized. Parks and Recreation Manager Skalicky said this will be extremely helpful for parks and recreation and specifically helpful for Staff in planning the CIP for the next 10-years. Public Works, and Parks and Recreation under that, will own this document and make sure the upkeep, maintenance and future planning all align. The Park System Plan has recognized a lot of things that will need to be replaced in the next few years. Even if they are a few years out, we earmark money for those improvements knowing we don’t have a specific plan right now. Parks and Recreation will own document moving forward. Chair Julius added it will be a part of the PTRC Work Plan. Reviewing the future year Park CIP is one of the core elements in our work plan. Discussion ensued that one of the park photos is taken from Arden Hills by shows Roseville’s land and that the cover photo will be changed for the final version. B. 2026 Public Works Maintenance Plan Parks and Recreation Manager Skalicky said Public Works Superintendent Frid created this maintenance plan and is seeking feedback from Staff. She has provided the parks portion for today’s discussion. This is the first draft. She doesn’t anticipate there will be very many big changes to this. The purpose of presenting it to PTRC is to look at the plan, using their specialized knowledge and identify projects that should be done or possibly noticing projects that shouldn’t be done. For example, including an invasive species of trees to be planted. Committee Member Olson would like to see a trash/recycling receptacle at Lindy’s Park. Chair Julius said the document outlines that Floral Park’s softball field isn’t going to be striped. The Parks Plan talks about decommissioning it. She was curious if that is happening. Parks and Recreation Manager Skalicky said that line needs to be crossed out. She noted drainage in the Floral Park baseball field area need to be dealt with, whether there’s a field there, or not. That area hasn’t been used as a ball field in a long time because of the drainage issues. She told committee members to take it home and digest the information then email her any comments. The plan won’t be finalized for another week or so. 5. UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. 2026 PTRC Work Plan Discussion Parks and Recreation Manager Skalicky thought the group can discuss which subcommittees should continue to be on the list, if any should be removed and if any should be added. Chair Julius said in looking at the draft annual work plan, the core elements will happen. Any projects added are optional. If we sign up for a project, it will be included under the committees. A project should not exist unless there is a committee member that will hold it down. We want to have actionable language outlining the steps we will take.
