Summary

The Parks & Trails Committee plans new plantings donated by resident Cynthia Nelson, is exploring a pavilion and a frisbee-golf course, and council approved purchasing five park trash cans for $2,500.

The Parks & Trails Committee reported plans to plant trees or shrubs in City Park using foliage donated by resident Cynthia Nelson. Committee members discussed applying for grants for a pavilion in Crown Ridge Park and studying whether a frisbee-golf course would be well used, including consulting Clarks Grove about their experience. Josh Otto said he replaced a vandalized tether ball and will research installing park cameras.

At council request, members approved buying five trash cans (one blue for Crown Ridge Park and four red for City Park) at $500 each for a total of $2,500. Council Member Charlie Berg moved to approve the purchase; the motion was advanced by Jon Asplund and approved by roll call. The council directed staff to place the blue can in Crown Ridge and the four red cans in the city park.
