HRA Meeting <br />Minutes – Tuesday, January 19, 2010 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br /> <br />the1960’s with updates provided over the years; and development of this Master Plan as a <br />  <br />direct outcome of the Imagine Roseville 2025 community visioning process in serving vital <br /> <br /> <br />community functions, framing future investments and community-defined goals, and shaping <br />  <br />the City’s Parks and Recreation System over the next twenty (20) years. <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Brokke and Mr. Jacobson addressed the purpose of the process in engaging the community <br /> <br />to establish or reinforce standards, to anticipate future needs, and noted the broad-range of <br /> <br />community interests represented by the CAP; and addressed input received from more than <br /> <br />1,000 questionnaires received to-date; the upcoming second Community Meeting scheduled on <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />February 10, 2010 at the Roseville Skating Center from 7:00 – 9:30 p.m., and encouraged the <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />public to attend; Sector Listening Sessions underway allowing for more in-depth discussions <br /> <br />  <br />with individuals representing groups, associations, and specific neighborhoods connected to <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />park facilities and recreation programs; and attendance at other Citizen Advisory meetings. <br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <br />Preliminary findings of the questionnaires received to-date indicate that neighborhood-scaled <br /> <br /> <br />parks were meeting the needs of the Roseville community for the most part, except in the <br /> <br /> <br />southwest part of the community that was not being reasonably served, which proved <br /> <br /> <br />consistent with the findings of the Comprehensive Plan Update. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />ofroseville.com and link <br />Mr. Jacobson and Mr. Brokke encouraged the public to visit www.city <br /> <br /> <br />to the questionnaire, or view the upcoming meeting schedule, or to contact Lonnie Brokke by <br />  <br />phone direct at 651/792-7101. <br /> <br /> <br />  <br />Mr. Brokke noted that the planning process has become more than just parks and recreation, <br />  <br />but about the community and integration of various areas through connectivity and gathering <br />  <br />places. Mr. Brokke advised that, once public input is received, Technical Advisory Team <br />  <br />advisors comprised of City Department Heads, City Manager Malinen, Moundsview and <br />  <br />Roseville School District representatives, Watershed District representatives; the Minnesota <br />  <br />Parks and Recreation Association; surrounding community representatives, as well as business <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />community representatives, would then weigh into the process. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />  <br />Another preliminary outcome indicated the correlation of housing values with their proximity <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />to well-maintained community parks and the converse when parks were not well-maintained. <br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <br />Discussion included initial discussions related to inter-organizational parks (i.e., senior <br /> <br /> <br />housing with parks and/or a community center in one location, citing the Edinburgh model in <br /> <br /> <br />Edina, MN); meetings held to date and planned in the future with School Districts for the <br /> <br /> <br />Master Planning process; “meetings in a box” used at several school meetings for additional <br /> <br /> <br />outreach; and recognizing the missing element of arts and cultural amenities in parks. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Chair Maschka thanked Mr. Brokke and Mr. Jacobson for their presentation. <br />  <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Trudgeon noted that a questionnaire was available in tonight’s agenda packet for those <br />  <br />Board members not yet having completed one. <br />  <br />  <br />9.Action/Discussion Items <br />  <br />  <br />a.Approval of Bylaws and Election of Officers of the Housing & Redevelopment Authority <br />  <br />in and for the City of Roseville for 2010 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Motion: Member Majerus moved, seconded by Member Quam adopted HRA Resolution <br />  <br />No. 36 entitled, “Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Housing and <br /> <br /> <br />Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Roseville, MN, appointing Officers and <br />  <br />Adopting By-Laws for 2010;” with the slate of officers approved as they currently stood. <br /> <br /> <br />
