clean up project. Chairman Thielen and Commissioner Fair volunteered to
mark the trees for removal prior to October 26.
Request for public skate board arga - Mr. Maki.
Mr. Maki, citizen of Monticello, had requested a meeting with the Parks
Commission to discuss where skateboarding is allowed. Maki stated he was
not aware of a good place for teenagers to use their skateboards. In his
opinion this was good exercise and a place should be, designated for
skateboarding.
Jeff O'Neill, Assistant Administrator, reviewed the city ordinance which
states that skateboarding is allowed on public streets, pathways, and parking
as long as it is not done in a careless, reckless, or negligent manger as to
endanger the safety of any person or property.
Maki questioned if skateboarding could be done in the City Hall parking lot
because it was a public area. The Commission agreed that as long as the
ordinance is being followed there is no law that prohibits use of the City Hall
parking lot. Mr. Maki thought this would be a good place to start.
b. ,Update on the Mein Farm Aren Park -Jeff O'N ill.
Jeff O'Neill, Assistant Administrator, reported that the Planning
Commission was in agreement with the park area for the Dein Farm
addition. There was a recommendation to review the area and to create some
active play area if possible.
There wasn't any information ready on this item.
The Commissioners discussed the boulevard tree planting ordinance. There
were still many options to consider: who is responsible for planting the trees,
should a fee for trees be added to the building permit and havo the City
responsible for planting the trees, or should the now homeowner receive the
trees after occupancy, and how should inspections and enforcement be
maintained? The Commissioners analyzed all the options.
