Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes May 4, 2005 donations. Mr. Drew Johnson supplied the committee with pictures of some of the houses being built and installed. City Council approved the Parks & Recreation Committee's recommendation to fund $700 of this project, with 15 of the wood duck houses potentially being installed on City ponds. Chairperson Peterson requested that Mr. Drew Johnson first attempt to get these houses adopted by residents before the City takes responsibility for them as the maintenance would fall to Public Works and they would prefer residents take ownership. There has been interest by Lino Lake's residents, but Mr. Drew Johnson will give Centerville residents precedence. Mr. Drew Johnson will continue to solicit residents to adopt a house and feel there will not be a problem placing the 30 wood duck houses. The committee will be kept informed as to the status of the project. m. CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES Consideration of Avril 6. 2005 Parks & Recreation Committee Meetin2: Minutes Committee Member Seeley asked for a correction on page 2, the second paragraph of the discussion on Hunters Crossing 3rd Addition.

Motion carried unanimously. IV. COMMITTEE BUSINESS Preliminary Plat for the Church of St. Genevieve The committee discussed what trail proposal they would like to recommend to City Council for the Church of St. Genevieve's preliminary plat. Chairperson Peterson questioned whether the Church of St. Genevieve will be required to pay Park Dedication Fees and would like to know what fees have been waived for this project. The committee would like to see a trail connection on the northwest/north corner of LaMotte Drive and Heritage Street to the existing trail that runs along LaMotte Drive. There is an existing utility easement on this corner. City Council previously approved Dressel Contracting doing a sub cut for a trail extension on the southwest corner of the property from the existing LaMotte Drive trail north of the lift station. The lift station is in the southwest corner and the existing trail runs into the parking lot at the entrance of the park. For safety issues the committee would like to see the trail on the north side of the lift station emptying onto the current temporary trail so bikers do not have to go into the parking lot from the trail. The committee would also like to recommend a trail extension from the temporary trail in the southeast corner of the property to line up with the Meadow Lane sidewalk on the east side of Centerville Road. Chairperson Peterson will determine the footage as it is unknown at this time 20f5
