Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes 06-01-11 correspondence to both City and personal email addresses seldom get responses from either. I Most committee members found the City email cumbersome to use and were not checking it very often. � There is a way to have the City email forwarded to the personal email, but not a11 members have been able to make this work. Committee Member Amundsen would prefer to continue using the City email, but some members would prefer going back to their personal email regardless of whether there could be potential litigation someday requiring their personal email to be looked at. Committee Member Peterson felt his personal email address was just more convenient for him. At this time Ms. Stephan will forward emails to both the City and personal email addresses of committee members. VI. UPDATES Bald Easle Water Ski Shows City Administrator Larson has been working with Mr. Bill Tschida, St. Paul Water Utility and Mr. Mark Spitzmueller, Bald Eagle Water Ski Club, on what type of liability/insurance agreement will be needed. Committee members discussed the number of people, children and bikes they have seen on the Ba1d Eagle Water Ski Club's dock. It was stated by Ms. Tina Lobin at an earlier meeting that the dock was collapsible onto itself to help prevent unauthorized people from using it. Because it is public park property residents would assume the dock is open for their usage unless posted otherwise. Ms. Stephan will contact Ms. Lobin about posting the dock as private property. ' Music in the Park ' Ms. Stephan will contact Mr. Tom Lee and ask him if he has had an opportunity to order the additional I, equipments or schedule a time with his band for the committee to practice using the PA system. Signage for Trails (Seelev) Committee Member Seeley provided the committee with pictures of the new trail signage recently installed by Anoka County Parks. The committee was surprised by the detail on the signs and how many signs were placed in areas the committee thought the City would need to be responsible for. Chairperson Branch noted there is advertisement for Blue Cross Blue Shield who must have been a sponsor of the signage. Committee Member Amundsen was concerned with making the signs more vandal resistant; Anoka County's signs just have sheet metal screws which are easily extracted. The committee now needs to go around the trail system and see what other signage the committee feels would be necessary. Chairperson Branch will contact Anoka County for more information on their signs such as cost, manufacturer and whether Blue Cross contributed to the cost. Council Member King questioned whether collaboration with Lino Lakes and/or Hugo would be possible, for instance ordering signs together for a reduced bulk price. The committee needs to think about how much of Centerville or our parks/trails should be on the signs. Committee Member Seeley felt there was too much detail on the County signs; the City signs do not need that much detail. Also noted were all of the logos on the County signs actually covered up the information. 4of6
