3. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
A. 2013 Goal Discussion
Parks and Recreation Manager Olson recapped that at the November meeting the
committee began discussing goals for 2013. At the joint meeting in March, staff is
recommending the PTRC present the ongoing and as needed goals and then present a list
of potential projects the PTRC would like to work on. Ms. Olson asked the PTRC to
focus on preparing a presentation for the joint meeting and indicated she will put together
a presentation template for the committee. She asked if the committee felt any changes
were needed to the ongoing and as needed goals and stated that instead of having specific
goals the committee could submit a work plan.
Committee Member Messerly pointed out the PTRC had discussed changing Item d. on
page 2 to read 3 to 4 hours instead of 6 to 8 hours. Ms. Olson indicated she did make
Parks,Trails&Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes December 18,2012
Page 2
note of that and will make the change. Committee Member Petersen questioned whether
the committee tabled the off leash dog park. It was indicated the group did table the
item. Committee Member Petersen stated he felt discussion of the off leash dog park
should be revisited. Ms. Olson indicated she would put the off leash dog park on the
work plan and then see if Council would like the committee to research further.
Discussion ensued on the off leash dog park.
Committee Member Michaelson suggested getting input from the Communications
Committee on future articles they would like for the newsletter. Ms. Olson indicated the
Communications Committee is interested in giving suggestions for the articles so there is
some variety. It was questioned if the PTRC should continue to submit the articles
monthly. Ms. Olson indicated the committee could skip a month if they have a problem
coming up with a topic. She indicated she would change Item 10 to read"prepare regular
articles" versus "prepare monthly articles." Ms. Olson stated she feels all the articles that
have been submitted contained valuable information. Discussion ensued on the
newsletter articles.
Committee Member Peck suggested they present an article outlining what the PTRC will
be working on in 2013 and Committee Member Petersen suggested an article about
Arden Manor. It was the consensus of the committee that these would be good articles
for the newsletter.
Ms. Olson reported there was actually one year left for the bench implementation project
but that Council decided to take this out of the CIP since they feel there are enough
benches at present. Council also took out the Freeway Park enhancements but this could
be put back in the CIP for 2014 and will be a point of discussion at the joint meeting.
Ms. Olson indicated that if the committee felt this should be moved up to 2013,they
should present to Council. It was the consensus of the committee that this goal be moved
up to 2013.
Ms. Olson questioned Committee Member Larson about what she wanted to see
regarding the park bathrooms. Committee Member Larson indicated she would like to
see something permanent with a nice exterior that is not plastic. Ms. Larson stated that
she realizes plumbing is a problem but feels they could look at commercial toilets that do
not require plumbing. Committee Member Peck asked if it would be feasible to have a
plumbed facility at Hazelnut Park since they have an irrigation system. Ms. Olson stated
that this would be an option for the PTRC to suggest for the CIP. She indicated she feels
Hazelnut is a highly used park and the committee could suggest a building similar to the
one at Cummings Park with indoor bathrooms. It was the consensus of the committee to
add this as a potential project. Ms. Olson recapped the potential projects suggested: an
off-leash dog park, Hazelnut building upgrade, Freeway Park enhancements, accessibility
for parks and trails, buckthorn eradication process, upgraded bathrooms in parks,paper
free PTRC packets, County Road E trail on north side, resident survey and/or updated
open space plan and recreation program input.

Ms. Olson reported that Council did approve a resolution supporting the dedication and
designation of the new picnic shelter to be installed at Valentine Park as the Don
Messerly Picnic Shelter. She stated she is looking for the committee to recommend

Committee Members Peck and Michaelson along with Chair Garretson agreed to work on
the subcommittee to determine an appropriate plaque or sign to be placed at the picnic
shelter.
C. Recreation Program Statistics
Ms. Olson reported that as a follow-up to the last meeting she has gone ahead and
highlighted all classes that are in cooperation with Shoreview. She stated she will have
year end statistics in January. Ms. Olson indicated that staff would like input from the
PTRC on programs that they would like to see added. Mr. Peck informed he has not
been receiving the recreation guide. Ms. Olson indicated that often there is a problem
with the City's postal routes and that she will add Mr. Peck to the Non-Residential
Mailing List so he is sure to receive one.

�- . HILLS
MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 8, 2013 Agenda Item: 3.A.
TO: Parks Trails and Recreation Committee
FROM: Michelle Olson, Parks and Recreation Manager IN
SUBJECT: 2013 Edited Goal Review
Background
At the last PTRC meeting in December, the committee made minor changes to the ongoing/as
needed goals and expectations. Staff has attached the revised version for review.
The City Council and PTRC will hold a joint meeting in March and this will give the PTRC the
opportunity to discuss the vision/goals with the Council members. In addition, the committee
suggested a list of topics/potential projects to present to Council as part of the 2013 work plan.
Ideas that were refined at the last meeting were: Freeway Park enhancements, accessibility for
parks and trails, buckthorn eradication process, upgraded picnic pavilion at Hazelnut with
plumbing, paper free PTRC packets, off leash dog area, resident survey and/or updated open
space plan, prioritize County Road E off road trail from bridge to Old Snelling (in conjunction
with bridge project) and recreation program input.
Action Requested
Staff is looking for the Committee to solidify the ongoing or as needed committee vision/goals
and a list of topics for the 2013 work plan.
010813 2013 Goal Discussion.doc
Commission pnd Committee:
Committee Name: Parks Trails and Recreation Committee (PTRC)
Year: 2013
A. General Purpose for Committees and Task Forces:
While the City Council and City Staff have the sole responsibility for all activities within the City
of Arden Hills,from time to time they find it desirable, advantageous,and necessary.to bring
together residents of Arden Hills in order to broaden and enrich the discussion around possible
decisions. As an example,the City Council's ability to debate and consider far-ranging
alternatives is stifled by the risk that the mere discussion of alternatives will engender them with
undeserved merit. In addition, Arden Hills will always seek to hire the most qualified and
capable employees,but in doing so we will frequently hire staff that is not intimately connected
to the Arden Hills neighborhoods. Therefore, it is critical that the City create a mechanism where
the City Staff can get unfettered and unbiased reaction to their novel thoughts-and ideas.
The Commission,Committee,and Task Forces are established to broaden and enrich the content
that will ultimately be enacted or authorized by the elected City Council.
B. Mission/Purpose:
Parks,trails,recreation and natural resources in Arden Hills increase the desirability of the city as
a place to live or work, enhance the health and well-being of citizens and guests,and improve the
value of citizens' property. The Parks,Trails,and Recreation Committee(PTRC)represents the
interests of Arden Hills citizens in leading the continuing development, expansion, and
improvement of those resources. The PTRC recommends to the City Council actions that support
those interests; monitors the use of and the improvements in parks,trails,and recreation; and
collaborates with other City committees and commissions in improving parks and trails.
C. Goals:
ONGOING and AS NEEDED:
I. Recommend actions that advance the vision for parks,trails,and recreation.
2. Assist in identifying ongoing parks and trails maintenance/improvement priorities.
3. Recommend and review grant opportunities, sponsorships,and partnerships for parks and
trails.
4. Assist, advise, and monitor plans for parks,trails and recreation within TCAAP at the
appropriate time.
5. Continue to work with Ramsey County on mutually beneficial trail/park projects and
activities.
6. Monitor potential road improvements to encourage inclusion of pedestrian friendly
infrastructure whenever possible.
7. Look to enhance/add recreational opportunities in our parks
8. Recommend future enhancements for the 5 year Capital Improvement Program each year.
9. Sponsor and organize Community events such as clean up day and buckthorn removal
day(s).
10. Prepare regular articles that the Committee would like to see highlighted in the City
newsletter.
1
D. Committee Expectations:
While the work required of.PTRC members will vary both across members and across time,the
following expectations are generally held of all committee members:
L The interests of Arden Hills and its citizens are foremost
2. Participation of PTRC members is key to their contribution
a. Members should be present and involved in meetings of the
committee.
b. Members should be actively engaged in discussing issues, sharing
perspectives, and raising questions that are essential to good
decision-making:
C. Effective participation derives from continually learning about
Arden Hills parks,trails,and recreation and the physical and
political environments in which they exist. This learning includes
those formal opportunities afforded by the PTRC, as well as
informal opportunities that occur in the course of one's activities.
d. As a general guideline,members should expect to spend
approximately 3 to 4 hours per month in their work on the
committee.
3. The PTRC is a group of peers-no one member has more standing or power than
others.
4. Respect for the opinions of each other, and for those with whom the PTRC interacts,
is a hallmark of the committee's work. Members seek clarity in presenting their
views,and represent a sense of stewardship in all that they do.
5. PTRC members engage in continual self-assessment of their performance on the
committee. As needs arise,they seek education and skills necessary to their
performance. As a collective,the committee develops changes in its composition,
structure and function as needed.
6. The PTRC provides opportunities for the education of its members,both as part of
committee meetings, and through access to educational events in other settings.
Members actively engage in this education as part of their responsibility to the
committee.
7. Some of the work of the PTRC is in areas of subjective judgment,where there is not
enough hard information to make the decisions that are necessary. Members who are
most successful in these decisions are those who are aware of the values they hold,
willing to engage in the discussion of those values, and respectful of those values
held by others that may differ from their own.
8. The PTRC is composed of individuals with diverse perspectives and experience. The
committee benefits from the contrasts that this diversity engenders, and seeks to
improve the decisions it makes and the actions it takes by understanding the conflicts
and resolving the disputes that arise in the discussion of issues and plans.

•The PTRC has many ongoing or as needed goals. They are listed in your packet and
on the screen.
These remain fairly consistent each year. However, the Council suggested an added
goal to the Committee at last year's meeting to begin submitting articles for the
newsletter. This was then added as an ongoing goal. Since that time,the
Committee has been rotating articles to different members on a regular basis.
•One of the goals is in regards to sponsoring and organizing Community events. The
PTRC would like to hear more from the residents. Ideas for this would be: Hosting
a booth at Celebrating Arden Hills, soliciting input from residents through a survey
monkey survey, etc...
•Does Council have any other suggested additions/deletions for ongoing/as needed
goals?

PTRC/City Council Joint Work Session
Hazelnut Irrigation Project
Cummings Park
BEFORE IRRIGATION AFTER
JOHN:
HAZELNUT IRRIGATION:
The Committee recommends irrigation for both the soccer field and softball fields at Hazelnut and
feel irrigation is crucial to improving turf conditions for the following reasons:
•The City has designated Hazelnut Park as a level 1 park in it's Maintenance Policy(Perry and
Cummings are other two). Level one is defined within the Maintenance Policy as: Highest
level of maintenance is performed at our large community parks and/or athletic complexes—
level one. Turf areas are subjected to frequent and intense levels of use throughout a
majority of the growing season. Commonly associated with athletic field sites programmed
for organized sports. Maintenance at this level maintains the park or facility at a standard
sufficient to ensure a well-kept appearance. Maintenance issues&concerns are given a high
priority. Hazelnut fields(both soccer field and ball field) have heavy use similar to the other
two level parks—Perry and Cummings. Fertilization is not fully effective without a water
source.
•The City and association lost the use of the Sutton Place field at Presbyterian Homes due to
expansion(a field in the same area of the City). The City shared the cost of maintenance of
these fields(staff,outdoor bathrooms,field paint,nets) and with this field no longer available,
this will be a cost saving.
•The North Suburban Soccer Association has committed to an$8,000 donation toward the
irrigation project. They have indicated they would like to increase practices at Hazelnut and
they would like to use both the soccer field and outfield of the ball field for their programs,
especially with loss of Sutton as a practice site. This has been attempted in the past but has
not been effective due to poor turf conditions. Perry Park and Cummings Park have 4 ball
fields and they are all irrigated.

PTRC/City Council Joint Work Session
2. Review the need for trail signage along trail
corridors in the City and recommend a trail
signage plan to the Council.
The 2012 CIP includes a proposed $3,000 for park
amenities.
The PTRC would like Council to consider utilizing
that expenditure for trail signage in 2012.

Below is the basic concept being considered for trail signage:
12 x 18
Direct printed on .125 poly metal
Cedar or wood post with frame around sign
Arden Hills logo ARVE\HILLS
Metal signs would feature color trail map that would be a
zoomed in portion for each particular trail. Current City trail
map would be divided into zones.

Approximately 20-25 signs """"`
PHIL:
k: 2011 goal —carrying over
l The Committee has been researching this project and would like Council input
and consensus on the basic concept before proceeding further into design and
analysis.
Preliminary research indicates that this project can be accomplished under
$3,000.
Specifics such as exact number of signs, location of signs, exact map design for
each sign, quotes for service, etc... will be determined within a plan to be
presented to Council at a later date, if this basic concept is satisfactory for PTRC
to continue.

CHUCK:
➢The PTRC would like to explore the concept of an off leash dog area in our park system.
➢The Committee briefly researched advantages to offering off leash dog parks in
communities:
➢Dog Socialization Advantages
➢Excellent source of dog-dog and dog-people social interaction
➢People Socialization Advantages
➢Excellent source of people-people social interaction- Dog oriented people
can meet and interact/Doggy play dates can be arranged
➢Physical and Mental Stimulation Advantages
➢Excellent source of off leash exercise for active dogs Allow dogs to get
adequate physical and mental exercise,thereby lessening destructive and
annoying behaviors in general which can benefit society as a whole.
➢Educational Advantages
➢Good opportunity for owners to learn about dogs through observation and
provides the opportunity to learn more from experienced owners.
➢Opportunity for well mannered dog advocates to demonstrate how they
turned their dog into a well mannered dog.
➢Community Advantages
➢Off leash areas lessen the chance of owners letting their dogs off leash in on-
leash parks.
➢No cars, rollerbladers,skateboarders,bikes,etc... likely to be encountered
➢There are disadvantages that also need to be researched such as: aggressive dogs,
people not picking up after the dog, unattended dogs, potential for noise,etc...
➢Locations will need to be explored, resident input should be sought and maintenance
cost s should be researched;
➢Council input?
