<br />~ <br />~HILLS <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> <br />DATE: March 26, 2008 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />Jim Willis, Interim City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: Michelle Olson, Parks and Recreation Manager '1'l!t9 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Naming ofthe land donated by Mr. James Shacker and Mr. C.E. Sheehy <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />On October 29,2008 at a Regular City Council Meeting, a motion was passed directing staff to <br />budget for the resurface ofthe tennis court on the 8.57 acres ofland donated from Mr. James <br />Shacker and Mr. C.E. Sheehy (donated to the City in November, 1994) and open it up for use to <br />the public. Staff was also directed to create a plan to establish this donated land. <br /> <br />Staff recently included the resurface project for this tennis court within our bid for the <br />Cummings Park Reconstruction. Bids came in under budget and this court is scheduled to be <br />resurfaced sometime this spring. Staff also budgeted $3,000 for a park sign at the site, which <br />would match our existing park signs. Once a name for this park has been established, a sign can <br />be ordered. In 2006, the City Council approved Guidelines to Assigning Names to Parks, Trails, <br />and Recreation Facilities. These guidelines are included for your review. The naming <br />procedures are as follows: <br /> <br />1. Any Arden Hills resident, business, or organization may submit site names to the <br />City. <br />2. Submissions for parks, trails, and recreation sites will be given to the Parks, <br />Trails, and Recreation Committee (PTRC) for deliberation. <br />3. After careful consideration, the PTRC will submit a recommended name to the <br />City Council for final approval. <br /> <br />At the February 26th Parks, Trails, and Recreation Committee (PTRC) Meeting, the naming of <br />this land was on the agenda for discussion. The Arden Hills No.3 Association was invited to <br />attend this meeting for this discussion. Unfortunately, no members of the neighborhood group <br />were able to attend. However, the President of the Association, Bruce Eisenmenger did send a <br />letter with the position of the Association. The committee also received one email with name <br />suggestions. The letter and email are included for your review. <br /> <br />\ \Metro-inet.us\ardenhillsIPR&PWlParks\Memos\Council Memos\Sheehy-Shacker donated land <br />name designation08.doc <br />
