<br />3. Trail Grants
<br />
<br />Discussion was held as to whether it was too late to apply for any grants and
<br />was it beneficial to continue to apply every year whether there was money in
<br />the budget or not. Ms. Pell reported it was to the city's benefit to apply every
<br />year, but the application form for the DNR grant should have been requested
<br />by January 1, 2002. The grant itselfis not due until March 31,2002. The
<br />concerns were will there be enough time to put together a grant by the time it
<br />is due and who will write it. Ms. DeVine volunteered to write it by using a
<br />grant submittal from 2001 for a 'primary outdoor recreational facility picnic
<br />shelter/playgroWld. A special meeting will be set up if necessary.
<br />
<br />4. Wheels Skate Park
<br />
<br />COlmcil Member Broussard-Vickers reported Mayor Swedberg wants the
<br />Wheels Park to be a top priority because of the problems the park was having
<br />last season, and suggested the committee ask for suggestions from Police
<br />Chief Joel Heckman. The problems include noise complaints from neighbor,
<br />the hoW'S, older children bullying the younger children, vandaHRm, swearing
<br />and smoking. Research needs to be done as to what other cities do to resolve
<br />these issues. This item was tabled until the next scheduled Parks &
<br />Recreation Committee Meeting so it can be discussed at length. It needs to be
<br />determined what the budget allows for hiring a Park Attendant and what hoW'S
<br />should be covered by an attendant.
