McDermott stated they are <br />very happy with Jabbour's work on behalf of the City, and he is an asset to the Park <br />Commission. • <br />The Navarre Park neighborhood met, and told the Commission they appreciate the work <br />done on the park, but are anxious to have sidewalks and trails installed. <br />They would like to dedicate a crabapple tree to Rick Meyers in the Navarre Park, and a <br />small planting bed to Sherokee Ilse in front of the sign in Bederwood Park to recognize <br />them for their work on the Commission. <br />White asked if the City could get a matching grant of $5000 from the Twins to put in a <br />softball field, would they find somewhere to locate it. White stated they could designate <br />the field for softball or baseball, but Orono already has baseball fields. Sansevere <br />suggested partnering with an association to find a location. McDermott stated they would <br />look into it, but possibly Saga Hill would work. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS —LIZ HAWN <br />None. <br />2 <br />• <br />
