<br />Parks & Recreation Committee <br />Meeting Minutes January 3, 2007 <br /> <br />to be removed. There is a very old, large tree near the shoreline that the committee would like to have <br />removed leaving the stump. The roots will help with erosion to the bank, but the committee would also <br />like to see it made into a checker/chess board on top of the stump. Wheelchair accessible paths will <br />need to be installed. Addressing the shoreline erosion will be an ongoing issue with Anoka County <br />Conservation, but if work needs to be done requiring heavy equipment it should be done before the area <br />is seeded or sodded. Committee Member Amundsen asked if the 81. Paul Water Utility wanted to <br />move the fence to separate the park property from their pump station building. Ms. Stephan will check <br />with Mr. Larson, City Administrator, and report back to the committee. <br /> <br />The items the committee would like to have completed before the dedication would be: A pavilion, <br />barbeque grills, picnic tables, 5 or 6 permanent benches, bike racks and ultimately a fountain made <br />with the artesian well. The committee will continue to discuss the need or desire for electricity to the <br />pavilion. Vice-Chairperson Seeley will continue to do research on the fountain. The committee is also <br />interested in the possibility of solar powered lighting. Signage will also have to be added. Tentative <br />plans for the dedication ceremony would be Saturday, August 3, 2007, following the Fete des Lacs <br />Parade. <br /> <br />IX. ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Motion was made by Committee Member Amundsen, seconded by Committee Member Harris, <br />to adjourn the January 3, 2007 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting at 9:05 p.m. All in <br />favor. Motion passed unanimously. <br /> <br />Transcribed by Kim Stephan <br /> <br />60f6 <br />
