In a recent LGU review of the proposed Ti ber Ridge III development, the LGU
determined that the Balboul park land wo Id be utilized as a storm water runoff pond for
the proposed Timber Ridge III developme t. Two points of concern with this development
include: 1) The Parks Commission was not notified that the LGU consideration would
impact park land and 2) there was no reim ursement in cash orland for the loss of the
existing park land.

Citizcns comments and reQuest.
Michelle Brandt, a resident of the Grovelanddevelopment, asked about the results of the survey.
Adam] lawkinson stated that at the public he ring on the grant application for the Groveland
park, residents had said that before the City oes further development in Groveland park they
Park Commission Minutes - 3/25/04
.
should find out what the residents want. '1'h Parks Department sent out a survey basically
requesting residents to identify what ameniti s they would like to see in the park, how often they
use the park and any other concerns relating 0 the park. The results of the survey was presented
to the Parks Commission and a copy was gi en to Ms. Brandt. Out of 187 notices, 56 responses
were received as of this date. Based on the responses received, a basketball court and picnic
shelter were the most requested items. Adm 1 Hawkinson noted that some residents responding
to the survey noted their concerns with som of the activities that are taking place at the park.
These comments were tabulated as part oft e survey results and Larry Nolan suggested copies
of this be sent to the Police Commission an the Wright County Sheriffs Department.
Adam Hawkinson reported that they had cat ght an individual on a ATV that had been tearing up
the seeded area and he will be charged for d mages incurred. Michelle Brandt reported that
they are having their first meeting ofthe Cri e Watch group tonight. She read and submitted a
letter stating that the park in Grove\and is a iolation of the City's noise ordinance and is an
invasion of their privacy. The letter closed ith a request to move the park to a location that is
sufficiently located away from people's ho es and property.
Chair Nolan acknowledged receipt of the let er and indicated that at this time the Parks
Commission was taking no action on her let er. Michelle Brandt replied that she has been
contacted by Councilmember Glen Posusta nd will be addressing the City Council on this
matter at the Apri I 12, 2004 Co unci I meetin .
.
5.
Park Maintenance.
Adam Hawkinson submitted a list of work completed for the month. Nancy McCaffrey asked
about the pathway construction by Front Str ct. Adam Hawkinson indicated that they are
putting in a wood chip path in the area that I ads down to the landing where the dock will be
installed. He indicated that the dock should be coming in Mayor June.
6. Re ort on surve of Groveland arca resi cnts.
Although this topic was cover under citizen comments, the Parks Commission felt that if the
Groveland park was going to be discussed b the City Council, they should have background
information on it. Larry Nolan will meet wi h Bruce 'rhielen and discuss the Parks Commission
position and submit the minutes of the infor 1ationalmeeting and public hearing as background.
Nancy McCaffrey felt that the point John Si 10la made to Michelle Brandt that this is a
democratic society where the good of the w ole should not be sacrificed for the wishes of the
individual should also be expressed to Robie Smith, the Council liaison and Mayor Bruce
Thielen. The Parks Commission discussed the noise issue and questioned whether additional
plantings would aid in muff1ing the noise. dam Hawkinson stated that approximately 45 trees
were planted 3 feet off of the park property ine arollnd the perimeter of the Grove land park..
This was done to help delineate the park area so residents know where the park boundary runs.
.
The Parks Commission also discussed Ms. randi's suggestion that the park be moved away
from residences. It was noted that Minneap )Iis parks are enclosed by streets. Rick Traver
stated that the City's ordinance does require park frontage on two streets. Larry Nolan felt that
the Parks Commission and City stafT needs 0 be more conscientiolls of making sure dedicated
2
Park Commission Minutes - 3/25/04
.
park land has frontage on two streets. As far as Michelle Brandt's comment about the light
from the park shining into her window, it wa noted that there are no lights in the park and the
light she was referring to was the street light. The Parks Commission has no control on where
those lights are placed. The Parks Commissi n felt the Groveland park points out the need to
mark park land before any homes are built in a development.
7.
Review of ro osed ordinance amendmen relatin to ark land Title XI Cha ter 6.
Adam Hawkinson submitted the proposed or inance amendment prepared by the City Planner to
the Parks Commission. Since the Parks Commission just received the information at this
meeting, it was decided to table consideratio of the amendment until the April meeting. The
Parks Commission asked that thc City Plann r be present at that meeting so any questions on the
ordinance amendment could be addressed.
8. Updates and added items:
Comprehensive Plan: Nancy McCaffrey an Adam Hawkinson met concerning finalizing the
inventory portion ofthe comprehensive plan. She submitted a draft of the inventory section to
the Parks Commission. When the draft park omprehensivc plan is completed it will be
reviewed by the Parks Commission and then forwarded to the city staff and city planner for their
review and then to any other entities who ne d to review it. It is the hope of the Parks
Commission to have the draft document com letcd in June.
.
Ea!l't Bridge Park: Adam Hawkinson state that when thc ground is thawed, they can begin
work at the park. Fran Fair asked if any dra ing has been completed showing the location of the
terraces and the type ofplantings proposed. - dam Hawkinson indicated that has not yet been
done. 'fhere was some discussion on advelii 'ing for vendors who donate materials for city parks
and how that should be handled. The Parks:ommission suggested contacting other cities to see
what they do or contact the League of Minne 'ota Cities.
Rick Traver asked if the Parks Department h d been contacted by the Y outhFootball League.
Adam lIawkinson indicated they have not b t the City has meetings scheduled with the softball
and baseball associations.
Adam Hawkinson stated that there is $65,00 in the budget for improvements to Groveland park
and hc would like continue with park develo ment for that area especially getting the basketball
court in. The Parks Commission suggested ot doing anything until after the April 12th Council
meeting.
.
Park Regulation Signs: lt is proposed to c ange the wording in the park regulation signs to
language that is more positive. Adam Hawkinson went over the language that is currently on the
signs and presented revised language. The r gulation signs contains information on the hours
the park is open but the Parks Commission uestioned whether those hours should apply to the
pathway since many peoplc use the pathway early morning or late evening which is outside the
hours the park is open. Other items on the s gn include: 1) No motorized vehicles; I) No
destruction of public property; 3) No shooti g mechanisms; 4) No golf activities allowed; 5) Pet
waste must be picked up and disposed ofpr perly; 6) No rollerblading or skateboarding and 7)
No alcoholic beverages. Another provision iscussed by the Parks Commission dealt with no

foul language or indecent behavior and it wa pointed out that not everyone agrees on what
"indecent" means. It was also suggested tha language stating "Please respect the parks" be
added. Adam Hawkinson will review the ch ges with the Public Works Director.
Adam Hakwinson reported that the painting fthe hard court at West Bridge Park will be done
in May. Larry Nolan asked about the 4th Str et Park and if the Public Works Department was
going to replace the hard court there. It was uggested that maybe the hard court could be placed
inside one of the rinks as there is limited spa'e at the park and it is questionable where else a
hard court could be placed. Adam Hawkins n will talk to the Public Works Director and Water
Superintendent about this. Adam Hawkinso 1 also added that his staff has been making some
repairs to the building.
Larry Nolan brought up Walk and Roll whic 1 will be held on May 22,2004. The Parks
Commission would like to be located in the arking lot at East Bridge Park since that will be the
site of a new trail. At a future meeting the P rks Commission will discuss what activity they will
provide for Walk and Roll.
There was a brief discussion on the irrigatio box at East Bridge Park and how to landscape
around it.

Review and discussion of Groveland Par
Commission members and Sheriffs Departr ent representatives were presented with a
summary of the Grovcland Park survey resu ts that noted some of the concerns neighborhood
residents had expressed on the development and activities in Groveland area parks.
Commission members discussed that recent y concerns had been raised by an adjoining
property owner that questions the developm nt plans the City had for recreational facilities in
the Groveland Park due to fears of excessiv noise and unruly behavior of kids activities in the
park. Sheriffs Department representatives oted that they had not received any serious
complaints from area residents on park acti ities, but noted they typically will try to monitor a
location if they receive a number of complaints.
4. Review of enforcement activities done b Sherifrs De artment in con .unction with state
snowmobile ~rants.
Lieutenant Anselment presented commissio members with a summary of the 2003.2004
recreational activities that Sheriff s Departn. ent personnel have done throughout Wright
County regarding snowmobile and A TV enf rcement. Mr. Anselment noted that
approximately $769 in labor costs were exp nded in the Monticello community for
snowmobile enforcement activities. The Sh riff's Department planned on using the
remaining funds from a $1,000 grant towar s purchasing additional equipment, such as a
snowmobile trailer for transporting snowm biles next season.

Police Commission Minutes- 4/14/04
Review of A TV use in city parks.
SherifT's Department representatives noted t commission members that ATV usage by
juveniles and adults have increased substanti lly throughout Wright County and also in
Monticello. It was notcd that there had bcen oncerns by some deputies that it was difIicult to
deal with juveniles who operate A TV s unla ~ully as it is normally difficult to actually cite or
ticketjuvcniles under the age of 11 for opera ing ATV s without a license. The Sheriffs
Department and County Attorney's office ha supportcd ticketing parents for allowing minor
children to operate A TVs without a license a an altcrnative method to actually ticketing the
driver. Overall, it was noted that the City's c rrent ordinance prohibiting recreational vehicles
in park locations was an adequate prevention tool that the Sheriff's Department will use in the
future.
Sheriff's De artment on activifes for last uarter.
Sheriff Department representatives provided to commission members a copy of the annual
report for the year 2003 showing calls for se vice, including number of accidents, traffic
citations and various crime activities. Sheri . Department representatives felt that with the
recent increase in the patrol hours contracted for, the current 48 hour daily coverage scems to
be beneficial in providing a good level of ser ice and also in keeping the response time at an
appropriate level. Depending on how annex tion proceeds with Monticello Township, the
City may have to look at additional hours be ng addcd to the coverage for the 2005 budget
year.
