;f..... (I ....!. '/ - ....~..... E.;"'" :i ~~lt3~V7"c-1t ,'~.1.~<Y~' .~. ~'" ;1J. TO: Parks & Recreation Committee members FROM: Kim Stephan SUBJECT: Updates DATE: May 30, 2003 Due to the lack of quorum at the May 7, 2003 Parks & Recreation meeting, your agenda for the June 4, 2003 meeting is basically the same. Included under Committee Business is Capital Improvement Goals - 5 Year Plan, at the request of City Council. Ellen Paulseth, Finance Director, included information in your packet.

What they would like from you is a tentative plan for the next 5 years, in particular 2004, as to what you would like to see done and what your goals are as a committee. Included in your packet is a page from the comp plan for Bicycle/Pedestrian Trails. While the comp plan will not be amended until 2007, council would like you to look at this and determine if this is still the direction you are headed. The 5K Run / Fete des Lacs item was added to your agenda at the request of EDC. They had worked with a White Bear sports shop, Vacation Sports, to promote the Frozen 5K for SNO BIZ and thought Parks & Rec might want to promote something like this during Fete des Lacs. If so, a date and time need to be supplied as soon as possible so it can be added to their web site and however else they use to promote races to the racing community. Contact Bridgett Backman (EDC) for more information at b.backman@centuPf.mnscu.edu or call w. 779-3200 h. 426-6018. Mr. Richard Anderson will not be in attendance, but he has expressed his interest in being a Parks & Recreation Committee Member. I have also had r~quests for information regarding the opening from 3 other people. I have
