Park Committee Minutes 1-0-08

8:30 p.m.

 

Trail Mapping -- Adam will meet Friday with city engineer Joe Palen to discuss the plan.  Adam has agreed to take the lead on this project and is intending to step down once it is complete.  Trail mapping was budgeted for and approved in the 2007.

 

 

Park signs -- Matt will talk with Tim to determine the plan.  Sign Here is the vendor we used for park signage and can easily pull something together.  Matt and Tim will work on locations and placement.

 

 

Soccer Goals  -- Matt will request Tim research some options for the Park Board to review at its February meeting.  The goal is to have more commercial grade goals available this spring.  The Committee also discussed marking the field in 2008.

 

 

Park Board Chair  -- This was Matt Jennissen's last meeting.  The Committee thanked him for his dedication and efforts to the City of Oronoco.  Emily Fletcher has agreed to be interim chair for February.  The Committee is in desperate need of new members since at least two others plan to rotate off the Committee this spring.  Without new membership a Parks Committee may not exist.

 

 

Other --

 

Matt plans to talk with the Zumbro Hills Association about possible dedication of parkland in their neighborhood. 

 

Adam plans to send an updated parkland dedication ordinance to Planning and Zoning for review.  This would include language relative to the trail mapping and include dedication requirements for commercial and industrial areas.
