Park and Recreation Commission Meeting Date: 04/12/2012 By: Mark Riverblood, Engineering /Public Works Title: Consider Park and Recreation Commission Outdoor Meeting Schedule Background: For many years, the Park and Recreation Commission have held regular meetings outdoors in the months of May through September (weather permitting). This provided the Commission an opportunity to inspect and comment on parks as a group, and it afforded residents' access to the Commission on a neighborhood level. On the occasions of inclement weather, the Commission would hold the regular meetings at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall. The purpose of this case is to confirm the Commission's desire for outdoor meetings in 2012 and, if so, what the locations will be. The following is a proposed schedule with an opportunity noted in brackets as a rationale — if the Commission agrees to continue meeting in parks for the summer. May: June: Central Park? July: August: September: After the Commission decides where the meetings will be held, their locations will be published in the Ramsey Resident newsletter and on the web. Notification: Observations: Funding Source: None required Staff Recommendation: (Discuss Parks CIP with City Council) Commission Action: Determine whether outdoor meetings are desired for 2012 — and if so the locations.
