May 4, 1988 Park Board Minutes <br /> <br />Anderson said there has to be a siltation control to <br />prevent runoff regardless of when the project is done. <br />It will likely be a fall project. <br />Anderson said there is still work to be done to obtain <br />the easement. Will get a topography map and find out <br />what we will do. In the mean time if anyone wants to <br />work with me on the plans to come back to the Park <br />Board, give me a call. We will send you people <br />information and give you opportunity to comment on the <br />specific plan at another meeting. <br />Dietmar Rose said he had a complete list of people in <br />the association which he turned in to Maurie. <br />A resident asked for a contact person at the church. <br />Anderson said he hesitates to give names out but then <br />added that Jeffrey Benson, and Bob Peterson are church <br />board members and John Buttrey is the Pastor. <br />Anderson said the way the process works with the .church <br />is that the trustees make a recommendation to the <br />congregation and post notice for four consecutive <br />Sundays then a meeting is held and the congregation <br />votes and makes the decision. <br />Johnson said perhaps the May 19th meeting on community <br />trends would be the place to get input on this and <br />build comments into the plans. <br />Anderson said something could be included in the survey <br />regarding trails in general. Don't want a referendum <br />on this issue. Decisions need to be made by June 15 or <br />not until September. <br />A resident asked if all residents were opposed to this <br />project could it go through? <br />Anderson said this project has not progressed to the <br />point where it is a definite. It can come up or down <br />at any time. If the church refuses the easement we <br />probably won't do it. The City Council and Park Board <br />also balance the rights of the unheard people, try to <br />balance all the needs equally. The people who oppose a <br />project show up at the meeting and usually you don't <br />hear those that are indifferent. <br />Dietmar Rose asked if this project is really needed? <br />Why do it? There are good alternatives to a trail. <br />There is no evidence that anyone really wants this. <br />
