MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PARK COMMISSION MEETING <br />Monday, March 2, 2015 <br />7:00 o'clock p.m. <br />7. Minimize the number of clicks throughout the website. <br />S. Make sure all links work as pop-up window and selectively if it makes sense offer downloading <br />and printing as an option. Also have a printable brochure. <br />9. Make sure all links are current and function as intended allowing pop-up window, downloading <br />and/or printing. The links should open up into the current window or give the viewer the option <br />of opening it, downloading and/or printing. <br />10. Update and complete park history link. <br />11. Make the terms used in the CMP and in various sections of the park -related website consistent. <br />12. Include and update the Adopt -a -Park section. <br />13. Create an easy way to contact the Park Commissioners. Currently clicking on the e-mail tab <br />takes someone off Orono's site and to your own e-mail system. It is also cumbersome to e-mail <br />more than one commissioner. <br />14. Include a link for "Leaving a Legacy" and identify a contact person. <br />15. Include a link to the Donation Policy. <br />Meyer stated the website needs to be easy for computer illiterate people. <br />Brenda Johnson noted there are user standards for websites. <br />Ruegemer displayed the Minneapolis Parks website on the overhead. Ruegemer stated in her view this <br />website is easy to use, has a full alphabetical listing of the various parks, and includes each park's features <br />and amenities. Also included are rentals, permits, and history tabs. <br />Meyer stated he would like either a street map or a satellite map of Orono with the numbers assigned to <br />the various parks. Meyer stated the user could then click on the number and expand the information <br />about the park. <br />Meyer stated these suggestions will need to be further refined and that perhaps the Park Commission <br />could discuss it at a work session. Meyer noted the IT staff with the City will need to also get involved. <br />Levang noted the Park Donation Policy is on the website currently. <br />Bryce Johnson stated he likes the concept of grouping the parks by use. <br />Brenda Johnson stated in her view it is important to identify the type of park. Johnson stated this <br />presentation was intended as an introduction to the problems and difficulties they encountered when using <br />the City's website. Johnson stated in their view including the GPS coordinates is critical to helping <br />people locate the parks as well as being able to download a map. <br />Page 8 of 12 <br />
