Attachment E <br />o Over the years Roseville has taken a number of calls on deer and other wildlife <br />issues. Ten or more years ago, Parks & Recreation volunteered to take the calls and <br />wark with Ramsey County. During the past 10 years Ramsey County has done <br />winter flyovers to track the number of deer in our City. Staff regularly get questions <br />on what the policy is for feeding deer in Roseville. Roseville does not have a policy <br />specifically addressing this, we suggest that they do not feed the deer. <br />■ Doneen added that an overly large deer population may be hazardous to <br />parklands and natural resources. <br />■ Others commented that there are also problems with coyote, geese and fox <br />in Roseville. <br />■ Brokke will include an update in a future meeting with tracking numbers. <br />■ Newby commented that it is important to track but also important to not let <br />isolated complaints or comments drive actions. <br />Gelbach asked about the upcoming burn at Langton Lake. <br />o Brokke explained this is follow-up wark for the Buckthorn removal that was done <br />on the west side of the lake last year. <br />• D. Holt asked about the EAB status after the winter. <br />o Brokke reported that unfortunately more trees have been identified with EAB and <br />the cold winter did not impact the bugs as much as we had hoped. <br />Anfang added: <br />o The department 20 year reaccreditation visit will take place on May 20-22. Staff <br />look forward to meeting with professionals from across the country and showing off <br />Roseville Parks & Recreation. <br />o The City Communications staff are warking on a park amenities map that will be <br />included in the July City newsletter. <br />o Rosefest buttons are now on sale. <br />o Pottery in the Garden is this Saturday, May 10 from 1 lam-3pm at the Arboretum <br />o Annual City-wide Garage Sale is June 7th <br />• D. Holt inquired into the election of chair and vice chair positions. This typically takes <br />place in March/April and has not yet happened for the upcoming year. <br />o Brokke will add to the June meeting agenda. <br />Meeting adjourned at 8:40pm <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br />Jill Anfang, Assistant Director <br />Page 5 of 5 <br />
