Chair Bennett stated the Commission definitely looks forward to these meetings in the parks. He <br />is comfortable with the meeting schedule. <br />The Commissioner agreed with the proposed summer meeting schedule. <br />6. CONIlVIISSION/STAFF INPUT <br />Parks & Assistant Public Works Superintendent Riverblood provided no updates. <br />Chair Bennett inquired about the readiness of sports fields, given the inclement weather. <br />Mr. Riverblood stated that in normal years, the athletic associations have been very good about <br />staying off the fields so as to avoid turf damage. But this year, the weather has been so inclement <br />that it is now getting close to game time, which generally begins the first week of May. <br />Probably, some fields will be beat up this year. If the snow this weekend does not materialize, <br />then perhaps things will green up. Usually, Ramsey begins mowing a few of the warmer spaces <br />with good soils as soon as the last week in April. That will not happen this year. <br />Chair Bennett cautioned all of the viewers to do the athletes a favor and stay off the fields as long <br />as possible to ensure a good, long playing season. <br />7.
