<br />M:E""O <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor and City Counell Members <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Kim Stephan <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />May 8, 2008 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Use of Volunteers to Trim Trees at Eagle Park <br /> <br />During the Earth Day Cleanup of the parks it was discovered that the wooded pine tree area of Eagle <br />Park has been used for a 'hangout' for kids. An assortment of fmniture, probable drug paraphernalia, <br />bottles, cigarette butts, etc. was removed from a secluded area behind the trees, off of the trail. <br />Residents have complained of hearing voices while walking the trail and not feeling safe in this park or <br />on this trail. The committee would like to ultimately remove some trees, but for the short term, trim up <br />the tress approximately 2-3' from the ground opening the area up to be more visible to both the <br />residents and the police. Vice-Chairperson Amundsen has volunteered to do the work and the question <br />to City Council and City Attorney is would there be liability to the City to have a volunteer perform <br />this work or does the work have to be done by Public Works Sta.fl? <br /> <br />34 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />
