Orono Park Commission Meeting July 10 , 1990 Page 2 BBDERWOOD PARR It was reported that parking on the West side of Stubbs Bay Road was dangerous and people were parking there even though there were places available in the lot. John Gerhardson reported that the West side of Stubbs Bay Road would be posted with No Parking signs for safety. A letter will be sent to Gary Larson itemizing the remaining work that needs to be completed on the baseball facility. John Gerhardson will look into the issue of food preparation at Bederwood in terms of a license or other requirements. BICYCLE TRAIL PLANS Dick Flint expressed his concern over the clarity of our current bike trail map. Alex Vongries displayed some alternatives. John Gerhardson will try to develop a more easily readable map. There was a discussion of the Development on the Fullerton property on the SE corner of Willow and County Road 6 as it relates to our bike trail plan. Concern was expressed that the Park Commission was not made aware of the Development earlier. A formal resolution was moved, seconded, and passed that Alex Vongries will appear at the Orono Council meeting on July 23 to formalize procedures for us to receive all Development requests at the same time as the Planning Commission. John Gerhardson will talk to Jeanne Mabusth , Zoning Administrator, about the current ten foot easement request for a bike trail on the north boundary of the Fullerton property.

A resolution was passed that Vern Genzlinger, John Gerhardson, and Dick Flint would meet with Tad Jude with respect to putting a detached bike trail along Willow from 12 to 24 concurrent with the County' s ' 90- ' 94 Capital improvement plan.
