Commissioner Baggenstoss questioned if any proposed sidewalks were planned for this parcel. <br />Staff noted that a sidewalk currently exists on the parcel and added that they will confirm with <br />city staff if the sidewalk needs to be updated to satisfy the Pathway Master Plan. <br />Commissioner Boulton asked if the water feature will stay at Rosebrook Park. Staff answered <br />that over time a discussion regarding an update to the water feature will be had with the <br />neighborhood. During that time land usage for park amenities will be reviewed. However, staff <br />acknowledged that removing a water feature from the park would be difficult. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arneson moved to recommend cash in lieu of land to satisfy Park <br />Dedication at 2560 Fry Street to the City Council.Commissioner Boulton seconded. <br /> <br />Roll Call <br />Ayes: Arneson, Beckman, Boulton, Brown, Dahlstrom, Raygor. <br />Nays: Baggenstoss. <br />Abstain: None. <br /> <br />c) Review and Verify Parks and Recreation Commission Goals <br />Commissioner Arneson recommended adding a goal to work towards ending the “willing buyer- <br />willing seller” way or purchasing additional park land. Chair Dahlstrom noted that he supports <br />the idea but he is not sure that it belongs as a Commission Goal. <br />Commissioner Baggenstoss questioned if the “willing buyer-willing seller” is a specific city <br />policy or if it is an interpretation of a policy. Staff relayed that it is written in the Comprehensive <br />Plan and the Parks and Recreation Master Plan under the goals of acquisition of park land and is <br />a city policy that could be discussed with the City Council. <br /> <br />Commissioner Brown suggested adding a goal of “Acquire more parkland” with a long-term <br />goal of updating the “willing buyer-willing seller” policy. <br /> <br />The Commission discussed the “willing buyer-willing seller” policy language and how they <br />could potentially move forward with updating it. The Commission agreed on adding the goal of <br />“Explore more ways and opportunities to acquire parkland”. <br />The Commission discussed potentially purchasing parkland on the south side of Lake Owasso. <br />Staff noted that it may be hard to purchase land that was previously recommended for cash in <br />lieu of land to satisfy Park Dedication. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arneson suggested adding city water access on one of the Roseville lakes with <br />rentable spots to store kayaks. <br />4 <br /> <br /> <br />
