It looks like I'm unable to attend <br />today's meeting (7/12), so I'm expressing my thoughts in written form. Please feel free to print and distribute for <br />tonight if prep time permits. <br /> <br />Regards, <br /> <br />Richard "Jake" Jacobson <br /> <br />Twin Lakes Panel Member representing Roseville Parks and Rec Commission. <br /> <br />*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* <br /> <br />Thanks to John and Dennis <br /> <br />Given scope and mission of the Twin Lakes Panel, John Shardlow and his team (Adam) did an excellent job <br />facilitating the panel sessions. There were times I wanted to have more discussion on certain topics or areas, but <br />it's impossible to accommodate everyone in all ways. <br /> <br />Thanks to Dennis Welch and his team for their efforts in addressing further questioning and follow up. Roseville <br />has been fortunate to have an excellent city staff. <br /> <br />I was impressed by the Roseville citizenry panel members. We're not experts, but we can I hope, provide a <br />collective wisdom that works toward the common good. <br /> <br />*-*-*-*-*-*-**-*-*-*-*-*-* <br /> <br />Within the scope of representing the Parks and Recreation Commission - I was encouraged <br /> <br />. The development team was sensitive to our desire of maintaining the park integrity of Langton Lake. <br />. They understood our desire to keep a natural setting for the lake, where citizens can feel the great <br />outdoors without a three+ hour trip of heading north. <br /> <br />. Retail areas were far from the park -- reducing the threats of litter, vandalism, noise and uninviting site <br />lines <br /> <br />. The development team showed every indication of working in good faith through Roseville's "Park <br />Dedication" regulations, whether it's cash, land set aside, or a mix. <br /> <br />*-*-*-*-*-*-**-*-*-*-*-*-* <br /> <br />8/4/2004 <br />
