P&R -3- <br />9/27/78 <br /> <br />Lions Club Contributions <br /> <br />The commission considered the possibility of using lion's club monies <br />if available for tot lots or creative play centers. However, at present <br />we don't feel we have an appropriate site. Other possibilities include <br />ball diamond backstops and development of the Titterud Park. <br /> <br />Municipal Golf Course <br /> <br />The council was contacted by the City Administrator regarding the possi- <br />bility of studying the feasibility oa a municipal golf course. The <br />council indicated that no study should be undertaken at this time. <br /> <br />Park Dedication Fee <br /> <br />Dennis Donovan and John Lichter attended a planning 'and zoning commission <br />meeting on August 21, 1978. Some P & Z commission members suggested that <br />the present park dedication fee formula is unfair to owners selling <br />property in the rural service area. Chairman Donovan obtained summary <br />of park dedication formulas compiled by the City of Blaine for other <br />communities in the metropolitan area. Reviewing Ramsey'S formula with <br />respect to other communities indicates that the present dedication fee <br />compares favorable to similar communities. The P & R commission feels <br />that no changes in the dedication fee formula are justified at this time. <br /> <br />The commission requests the the city administration to investigate the <br />possibility of acquiring easem~e% or property along the proposed trail <br />between Ramsey Elementary School and Ramsey Terrace Park. <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 10:30 p.m~ <br /> <br /> <br />
