Parks,Trails&Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes May 18,2010 Page 2 Nations Charter they add Signatory of the United Nations Charter in the world citizenship paragraph. Ms. Olson reported the family is honored that they were asked to be involved. Ms. Olson asked the committee members to review the next handout showing the quote Elmer L. Andersen's family selected for the pillar and also feedback for the first paragraph under the map. She indicated that Ramsey County, staff and Mr. Hames discussed having a joint statement about Parks and Recreation since the cost would be more if the City used a different statement for their sign. Therefore, they have been working on drafting a joint statement. Ms. Olson stated that Ramsey County has approved the sign for the Tony Schmidt Regional Park and indicated they could do something different for the Arden Hills location if that was the consensus. She informed the committee that the City is in the process of getting quotes. Chair Peck requested a grammatical correction be made to the sentence reading"the City of Arden Hills and Ramsey County have worked cooperatively." He suggested deleting the word have and having it read work cooperatively. Committee Member Garretson and Ms. Olson agreed they liked the change. Ms. Garretson asked if the dates could be removed to make the sign look cleaner. Ms. Olson indicated that dates are usually included with a resolution. The committee consensus was that people would like to see the date the resolution occurred. Ms. Olson reviewed the updated map with the group. The committee's consensus was that they thought the map looked great. MOTION: Committee Member Petersen made a motion to accept the design changes as presented with the exception of removing the word "have" and the letters "ed" from the word work and recommend approval to the City Council. Committee Member Garretson seconded. The motion carried unanimously. Ms. Olson indicated this had been scheduled to go to Council for approval at the next meeting but because only three members would be present at that meeting she would present at the June 14, 2010, meeting. Council Liaison Grant indicated Ms. Olson should send the Council a PDF of the signs. Ms. Olson stated that she would have Derrek put together a portfolio and asked if Council would have enough time to review if she included with the next packet. Council Liaison Grant stated Ms. Olson should provide this to Council as soon as possible. It was discussed that a notation should be added in the packet stating that Elmer's family was involved in the wording and that any editing would delay project. the .ect. Ms. Olson stated that Derrek Hames will provide models with the updated text at the next Council meeting.
