There is a void of public archery ranges in <br />the metro area. <br /> <br />Because this meeting was dedicated to the current Comp Plan, Huberty and Larsen were asked to postpone the bulk of <br />their presentation to a future commission meeting. Huberty and Larsen agreed to return at a future date with a power <br />point presentation and information. <br /> <br />Special Commission meeting to review and discuss Comprehensive Plan. Jamie Radel, Community Development <br />Department and Gary Grefenberg, Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee member in attendance. <br /> <br /> <br />2. <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMMITTEE REVIEW AND COMMENT <br /> <br />Radel provided an overview of the Comp Plan chapter addressing Parks, Open Space and Recreation – this meeting is <br />intended for the Parks and Recreation Commission to provide input, not a complete redraft of the document. <br /> <br /> <br />The Comp Plan update process started in October 2007. Background research was conducted in fall 2007 <br />with attention to the Imagine Roseville 2025 outcomes. <br /> <br /> <br />The initial Comp Plan open House took place in March 2008, 70-80 residents were in attendance and the <br />session focused on future land use. <br /> <br /> <br />The Steering committee has been focused on goals and policies; they have worked to boil down raw data into <br />future projections. <br /> <br /> <br />The parks, open space and recreation chapter has been prepared with the intent that there will be future <br />master planning process utilizing the department system plan and Imagine Roseville 2025 outcomes. 95% of <br />the parks, open space and recreation chapter remain consistent/similar to the previous comp plan. The <br />department systems plan is to be referenced in the Comp Plan. <br /> <br /> <br />Grefenberg commented that the steering committee does not have time to address the parks and <br />recreation plan, the committee is overwhelmed and looks to the Parks and Recreation Commission to <br />move the master planning forward. <br /> <br /> <br />The assumption of the steering committee and others is that Parks and Recreation Master Planning <br />should be done. <br /> <br /> <br />Discussion included the need to craft a policy that addressed the need for a higher level of park <br />maintenance and funding. <br />Discussion of chapter sections followed with suggested adjustments taken by Radel to incorporate. <br />Commission Recommendation: <br /> <br />Commissioners requested a second look of the parks, open spaces and recreation chapter to review changes. <br /> <br /> <br />3. <br />OTHER <br /> <br />Commissioner Johnson recommended the Commission send a letter of recognition and appreciation to Frank Rog and the <br />Central Park Foundation following the Council action to rename the amphitheatre the Frank Rog Amphitheatre. <br /> <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 8:30 pm <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br />Jill Anfang, Assistant Director <br />
