Dicl you know The City of Eagan has a Forestry Web Page During the 1999 season, the City of Eagan Tree Inspector personally responded to over 400 customer requests between May and August. These requests most often concerned tree care issues, such as planting, pruning, fertilization, non - lethal foliar diseases (oak anthracnose, apple scab), general landscape design, reforestation, and tree identification. The City Forestry Division has created a new web page to address the issue of providing timely tree and landscape information to the general public, without making personal trips to every home. In November 1999, the Forestry website was up and running, although a couple of sections remain to be completed. This website will be updated seasonally and used to inform the general public of timely information on urban forest health and tree care issues, natural resource management assistance, tree and landscape ordinances, and other seasonal tree care- related topics. The forestry Division's website is located at the following address: http: www. ci. eagan. mn. us/Forestry /forestry. htm Public Tree Sale This will take place on Saturday, April 29`h. Order forms will appear in the next issue of the Experience Eagan city newsletter. • HISTORIC HOLZ FARM Holz Farm was acquired in 1995 by the City of Eagan in order to erve the rich farming history of the area. This beautiful setting is located in the southeast corner of the City alongside Holz Lake.

One of the objectives of the plan was to enhance lake related recreational opportunities such as fishing, canoeing and swimming. Historically, Eagan was not recognized for its fisheries however, that has been changing throughout the 1990s. Realizing that winter aeration is a good tool to prevent winterkill and provide larger numbers of game fish, the city obtained two aerators in the late 1980's. Since 1994, the city has purchased additional aerators and currently has nine. Winter aeration has improved fish abundance, but the city realized that accessibility and fishability also needed improvement. In the late 1980s the city had one fishing pier to provide better access. Presently, there are four piers, one bridge, and one platform. Weed harvesting is conducted on up to four lakes per year to improve water quality. Each year since 1993, fishing clinics for up to 100 kids have been conducted to teach fishing skills, as well as practicing catch - and - release on larger game fish such as largemouth bass, northern pipe, walleyes, channel catfish, crappies and bluegill sunfish. To guide future planning, the city has a goal of providing a quality fishery within one mile of each city neighborhood by 2005. Several steps will need to be taken to achieve this goal by 2005. The city will purchase a portable, boat - mounted week cutter in 2000 to improve the ability to remove weeds from around piers and other fishing areas. For more information on Eagan's fishing lakes and fish species found in them, the 2000 "Eagan Fishing Guide" is available free of charge at the Municipal Center, the City Maintenance Facility and all Holiday Station Stores. All of the lakes in the guide are located in city or county parks. • Exhibits Registration ,form Spring Variety and Leisure Shone Eagan, g ACV - ,arc 17 ,18,19 2000 Dates and Times: Booth includes: 5F'ff Varkty and Leisure Show Friday March 17 — 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Saturday March 18 — 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Sunday March 19 — 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. 8X10 booth space 1 - 8' table included (extra table available for an additional $8.00 per day) Curtain rental per booth (extra booth would pay $40.00 per booth) Potential carpet for entire surface Setup time and dates: Thursday 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Friday 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. Take down time and dates: Sunday 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Cost per Vendor: $ 300.00 per booth for 3 days $ 200.00 per each additional 8X10 booth $ 25.00 per booth for electricity per day 1/3 of your payment is due with application to hold booth.

Maintaining and repairing playgrounds requires a significant commitment from the City. Maintenance staff routinely checks all playgrounds to ensure they provide safe pleasure for their users. Playgrounds are reviewed periodically to determine when they are ready for replacement. A very thoughtful process is used to determine which equipment should be replaced based on safety, age, ,meeting the Consumer Product Safety Commission guidelines as well as the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. Since 1998, Evergreen, Highview, River Hills and Woodhaven parks have received replacement playgrounds. In 1999 a new playground was added to Walden Heights Park, a newly developed park. Currently the City of Eagan has 49 playgrounds within 41 parks and 8 schools. This year, plans will be prepared to replace two playground structures within the City. Again, the thoughtful process will be followed to ensure that the new equipment will meet all of the safety guidelines while providing the most fun within the budget limitations. • Participant's Name Date of Birth (or "Adult") A e 9 Fade (curve) Class # Class Name Fee $ $ $ $ $ $ • Eagan Parks and Recreation W REGISTRATION FORM Z arent uar•Ian one artiupant or Address City Change of address Q Parent /Guardian or Participant Signature Home Phone State Zip Code I have read and understood the registration and refund policies.
