MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PARK COMMISSION MEETING <br />Tuesday, September 4, 2018 <br />6:30 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Page 6 of 6 <br /> <br />Meyers commented he would like to also see the areas around the trees and signs weed whipped. In <br />addition, some of the trees have offshoots coming out of them that should be trimmed off. <br /> <br />Mayor Walsh stated now that all these improvements have been done, the City wants to make sure the <br />parks are maintained on a regular basis and that he would recommend the Park Commission work with <br />Staff to compile a list of all the weekly and monthly things that need to be done at each park during the <br />summer. Walsh stated that would be a nice checklist that would be available moving forward. <br /> <br />Meyers stated they could perhaps get together with Jason to get that accomplished. <br /> <br />Meyers stated he would like to keep improving Lurton Park every year so the people buying the permits <br />can see the park being enhanced. Meyers stated he would like to erect a bathroom at some point. <br /> <br />Johnson stated the suggestion by the Mayor is a good one, and that one of the duties of the commissioner <br />assigned to an individual park should be to compile a list of tasks over the winter, which can then be <br />given to the new commissioners. <br /> <br />Casco Park <br /> <br />Meyers asked whether the wild flowers ever got planted at Casco Park. <br /> <br />Ruegemer indicated they did not but that she hopes it will get done this fall. <br /> <br />Hackberry <br /> <br />Edwards stated once they are done with Bederwood, the Park Commission talked about putting together a <br />master plan for Hackberry. Edwards stated some significant changes will need to be made to fix the <br />drainage issue at that park. <br /> <br />Miscellaneous <br /> <br />Ruegemer noted the East Long Lake Trail Committee will be meeting mid-September. <br /> <br />Meyers stated at the next work session they can discuss East Long Lake Road and plans for an outhouse <br />at Lurton Park. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Johnson moved, Carter seconded, to adjourn the Orono Park Commission meeting at 7:23 p.m. <br />VOTE: Ayes 6, Nays 0. <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br />___________________________________ <br />Rick Meyers, Chair <br />
