Park Commission Matters <br />August 1, 1991 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />A, That you instruct the City staff to apply for a <br />permit from the DNR to restore the sewer pond to an <br />appropriate water level. This was approved unanimously <br />at our meeting on July 2. <br />B. That you authorize us to retain a consultant at a <br />cost of approximately $950. It appears to us that if <br />we are to accommodate a suitable park and natural area <br />on the property, as well as compatible development of a <br />portion of the property, a consultant should be <br />retained to assist you and us in our planning. We <br />reviewed several conceptual plans at our meeting on <br />August 6 but were unable to agree upon the most <br />desireable plan without professional assistance. Mr. <br />John Shardlow of Dahlgren, Shardlow and Uban was at our <br />meeting and advised us that the planning assistance <br />which we envision can be accomplished for approximately <br />$950 and can be available for the next Park Commission <br />meeting on September 3. <br />3. Other Available City Property. We reviewed the McCulley <br />Road parcel at our June 3 meeting and concluded that we <br />should retain a bike trail corridor of approximately 30 feet <br />width along the west side of McCulley Road and we should <br />also retain a parking area to serve the Luce Line. Aside <br />from this, we concluded that there is no need to retain this <br />property for park purposes. <br />We are continuing to evaluate the Crystal Bay property where <br />the present municipal facilities are located. We have evaluated <br />several alternatives, but have not yet reached a definitive <br />conclusion. <br />I am sorry that I will be unable to attend next Monday's <br />meeting, but I look forward to seeing you and answering any <br />questions you might have on the 26th. <br />Sincerely yours. <br />1 i<y //■I <br />Richard N.
