Park and Recreation Commission Item #: 5. 3. Date: 04/14/2011 By: Mark Riverblood Engineering /Public Works Title: Define Environmental Expo Planning and Participation Background: For many years, the Commission has been participating in the Environmental Expo by staffing a booth providing general park information to the public. The purpose of this case is to identify which Commissioners may be available for the April 30th, event. This is the 34th year the City is holding the tree sale /expo — which is quite unique for a community. This will also be the fourth year that the Expo and Tree Sale will be held at the new Municipal Center — and the third year that the event will be held in concert with the Ramsey Business Expo. The Park and Recreation Commission's table will be positioned next to the Environmental Policy Board — which also provides an opportunity to network on natural resource issues in Ramsey. In keeping with past years, staff will have various materials and resources relating to parks for the Commission's table that are of public interest, including a laptop with projector if time allows. The following are suggested times that may be considered to ensure coverage for the Commission's staffing: 8:30 A.M to 10:15 A.M. 9:45 A.M. to 12:00 P.M. Funding Source: There is no funding required. Council Action: Based on discussion. interim expo flyer Information Attachments Form Review Inbox Reviewed By Date Mary Jo Warner MaryJo Wamer 04/07/2011 01:46 PM Chris Anderson Chris Anderson 04/07/2011 04:55 PM Brian Olson Brian Olson 04/08/2011 10:24 AM Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 04/08/2011 11:30 AM Form Started By: Mark Riverblood Started On: 04/07/2011 01:17 PM Final Approval Date: 04/08/2011
