MEMO TO: ADVISORY PARKS RECREATION COMMISSION
i' FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS RECREATION
DATE: MARCH 21, 1985
RE: COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 28, 1985
The March 28 Commission meeting will begin at 7 :00 P.M. in the lunchroom of
the Eagan Municipal Center. The Advisory Planning Commission has public
hearings scheduled both Tuesday and Thursday, necessitating the move of our
meeting to the lunchroom.
The first item on the agenda is the review of the revisions proposed for the
Forest Ridge Addition by Dan Gustafson. Members will recall that this 20 —acre
addition was proposed for Denmark and Duckwood Trails. Mr. Gustafson has
since revised the development plan. The Director of Parks Recreation felt
it appropriate that the Commission review this preliminary plat in case it
felt a revision to its previous park dedication requirements should be made.
The second item on the agenda is the review of the architectural programs for
park shelter buildings. The purpose of this informal discussion will be to
share information and to begin to draw a concensus on the type of shelter
buildings for the various park facilities. A draft architectural program
statement can then be used to assist the Commission as it selects an architect
or pre— engineered structure for the parks. To aid the Commission, staff will
present some slides of shelter buildings from other communities. This will be
followed by a discussion on material types and a presentation by Mr. Bob Kline
who represents Cedar Forest products. Cedar Forest products are pre
engineered structures which can be purchased as a whole and erected as a
complete shelter building. Finally, staff will discuss the architectural
selection process which utilizes the architectural program as a criteria for
selection.
The third item on the agenda is an updated discussion of the Blackhawk Park
and LAWCON Grant Program. Staff has had discussion with a representative of
Mr. Leo Murphy concerning acquisition of a portion of his property for access
to Blackhawk Park. The Fiscal 1986 LAWCON applications have recently been
received by staff with some changes noted in the application process.
Commission has attempted to keep the second meeting of the month to a two —hour
time limit. If time permits, staff has several items under "Other Business"
they would like to discuss informally with the Commission concerning parks
acquisition and programming.
