<br />RECOMMENDA nON: Development should be for passive activities only leaving <br />the majority of the area in its natural state. The City should use $300,000 from the <br />TIF bond pool for development of this park; efforts should be made to obtain <br />matching grants to help fund pathways and passive activity improvements. <br /> <br />Cemetery Property <br />BACKGROUND: The City entered into a 50 year . lease with Roselawn Cemetery in <br />1992 for 40 acres of undeveloped land to be used as a park. This land is well suited <br />for passive uses including walking and skiing trails and nature interpretive areas. The <br />majority of the property could be left in its undeveloped natural state and serve as open <br />space. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDA TlON: Development should be for passive activities only leaving <br />the majority of the area in its natural state. <br /> <br />3) Facility Improvements <br />A) SKATING CENTER <br /> <br />Phase 2 <br />BACKGROUND: The Oval as it stands is an incomplete facility. The original plans for <br />the John Rose Oval included locker rooms, offices, concession areas, and meeting <br />rooms which are part of the Phase 2 Project. State money is available for the project if <br />it is initiated soon. The financial viability of the Skating Center as a whole depends <br />upon continued attraction of revenue generating events. Without the planned locker <br />rooms and other amenities, the Skating Center will not be able to attract these types of <br />national and international events. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDA TION: The City should complete Phase 2 of the Skating Center by <br />matching the $500,000 State grant with TtF bond pool funds. <br /> <br />tnline Skating <br />BACKGROUND: Skating Center revenue is low during summer months. Summer <br />revenues can be enhanced by increasing the opportunities and attractions for inline <br />skaters. Such opportunities might include hockey and an aggressive skating park. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: The Parks and Recreation Department staff should explore <br />all opportunities to expand activities at the Skating Center. <br /> <br />B) NATURE CENTER <br />BACKGROUND: The Harriet Alexander Nature Center was opened in 1990 and has <br />become a major educational and recreational resource for the City as a whole and for <br />the School District. The Nature Center Advisory Committee has developed a Five Year <br />Plan including programs, staffing, capital improvements and renovations. Capital <br />improvements are needed to accommodate the increased demand for Nature Center <br /> <br />9 <br />
