MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO PARK COMMISSION <br /> MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 6, 1995 <br /> (#6 - Luce Line Proposal - Continued) <br /> Ilse asked for spokespeople for the November 29 meeting. It will be attended by Ilse, <br /> Flint, and McMillan. <br /> (#7) WINTER RECREATION PROGRAM <br /> A. ICE RINKS <br /> The Commission reviewed the parks that will have ice rinks this winter. Hackberry <br /> will remain open and have two benches for skaters use. Bederwood will remain <br /> open as well as Casco, which was noted to have a light for evening use directly <br /> over the rink. Antoine was approved for closure at the Council meeting of <br /> October, 1995. <br /> Wilson reported that she received a suggestion from an Orono resident that the <br /> City purchase boards used for rinks from the City of Minneapolis and create a rink <br /> at Summit Park on Long Lake. The Commission concluded not to proceed with <br /> this suggestion. <br /> B. ORONO GOLF COURSE (SATURDAYS ONLY?) <br /> Staff recommended use of the clubhouse at the Orono Golf Course for Saturday <br /> afternoon use for sledders and skiers from 12:00-4:00 p.m. during January and <br /> February. Gerhardson said the funds will come from a fund to be determined at a <br /> budget meeting on November 16. Gerhardson will speak with Gear West <br /> regarding use of the clubhouse on Wednesday evenings. Gear West will be <br /> required to pay for any staffing required on evenings where they seek to use the <br /> clubhouse. <br /> After discussion, the Commissioners decided that Sunday afternoons would be <br /> preferable than Saturdays for clubhouse use. It was opined that families use <br /> Saturdays for errands and the like and Sundays as family days. <br /> McMillan requested the clubhouse opening be advertised in the local paper. Ilse <br /> suggested a picture be included to spark interest. <br /> (#8) REPORT ON PROPOSED SCHOOL FACILITY - POSSIBLE IMPACT ON <br /> PARK AND TRAIL SYSTEM <br /> This item was deleted from the agenda for discussion. <br /> lU <br />
