A would end at 144th Lane, while Option B would continue from that point on Potassium to the <br />intersection at 143Road Lande, then west to Quicksilver. <br /> <br />Residents surveyed indicated that geese were one of the problems at the park. Mr. Boos said that <br />the City has reduced mowing down to the water thus the geese will look for the easiest way out <br />(especially with their young), and will most likely not be coming out along the walkways and <br />paths. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding a kiosk in the northern area with a possible fountain and arbor just <br />west of it, and a fire pit with a lockable lid located in the southwest comer. Irrigation was a big <br />factor and was discussed in conjunction with the fountain. <br /> <br />Mr. Boos indicated that the City could provide tree trimmings as some of the wood to be used in <br />the fire pit. A rustic setting for that area was determined to be most aethetic. <br /> <br />Commissioner Johns questioned whether a drinking fountain would be put in. The concensus of <br />the Commission was not to put a drinking fountain at this time due to vandalism. <br /> <br />The Commission's consensus was that an irrigation system, a picnic area with plantings on the <br />island including a fire pit be the main development prioritites for the park. <br /> <br />Case #5: DETERMINE OUTDOOR MEETING SCHEDULE <br /> <br />To encourage public participation and to provide familiarity with the system, the Commission <br />has been conducting it's regular meetings at park sites during the summer. <br /> <br />All meetings commence at 6:00 p.m. except as noted. In the case of inclement weather, the <br />meeting would be re-scheduled the same night at 6:30 at City Hall. <br /> <br />Following is the Commission's schedule: <br /> <br />April - Emerald Pond Park (walk thru of the park at 5:30) <br />May Fox Park <br />June Central Park (public hearing - see Case #6) <br />July Lake Itasca Park <br />Aug - Solstice Park <br />Sept - Riverdale Park <br /> <br />Case #6: SCHEDULE PUBLIC COMMENT PROCESS FOR ALPINE PARK <br /> <br />The 1997 Capital Improvment Program shows an approximate $220,000 improvement to begin <br />construction of Alpine Park. <br /> <br /> Park and Recreation Commission/March 14, 1996 <br /> Page 4 of 7 <br /> <br /> <br />
