Consider Park and Recreation Commission Outdoor Meeting Schedule

For many years, the Park and Recreation Commission have held regular meetings outdoors in the months of May through September (weather permitting). This provided the Commission an opportunity to inspect and comment on parks and projects as a group, and it afforded residents’ access to the Commission on a neighborhood level.  On the occasions of inclement weather, the Commission would hold the regular meetings at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall. The purpose of this case is to confirm the Commission’s desire for outdoor meetings in 2014 and, if so, what the locations will be.

The following is a partial proposed schedule with an opportunity noted in brackets as a rationale – if the Commission agrees to continue meeting in parks for the summer.


May:    Riverdale Park   (Inspect shelter and restroom project)

June:  Central Park       (Capital Improvement Program and Central to Alpine Trail)

July:    Elmcrest Park    (Potential building dedication)

August:

September: The Draw     (Park Patron Picnic)

After the Commission decides where the meetings will be held, their locations will be published in the Ramsey Resident newsletter and on the web.


 

None required

Determine whether outdoor meetings are desired for 2014 – and if so the locations.
