Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Paviae Proiect Chairperson Peterson suggested that at the time the parking lot is paved at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park in conjunction with Heritage Street and LaMotte Drive, the city should pursue getting the trail on the side of St. Genevieve as previously discussed. Representatives of the church had tentatively agreed to a trail on the west border line of the parking lot around the lift station to the east with the final location of the trail dependant on the church's renovation plans. . Committee Member Peil stated the church has recently revised their plans for renovation of the church with one option being a school facility, community building, sanctuary, fellowship hall, out buildings, and gardens. Committee Member Peil and Council Member Lee will further investigate and report to the committee when more information becomes available. The committee felt the church should be approached to include the trail into their plans. The following discussion was had at the March 3, 2004 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting: At the February 4, 2004 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting a proposed trail through S1.
