NEW BUSINESS:
STATUS OF PROPERTY LOCATED NORTH OF LOMIANKI PARK
Commission Chair Evans stated that the Park and Recreation Commission needs to
discuss the status of the property north of Lom ianki Park and whether or not this land will
be used for future park land. Dave Peterson, 3959 Main St. stated that he would like to
see an agreement with the purchaser of the property so that they don't just buy the land
and then turn around and re-sell the property for profit. He also questioned the
moratorium that the City currently has in place. Randy Schumacher, Asst. Community
Development Director stated that the moratorium was put in place due to the fact that the
City has hired a planner to evaluate the industrial park and this would prevent any
changes while the study is taking place. Dave Peterson recommended that the City wait
until February 1 to make the decision because the people he talks to do not want to lose
the park. Carol Ford, 3942 Main St. stated this area is used by people to hangout, play
soccer, football, golf, or do just what they want to in an open space area. She. stated that
people come from Minneapolis to use the park. People come to watch the railroad and
sunbath in this area. She stated that this area is good for kids to do unstructured
activities. This area also has wildlife such as eagles, hawks, pheasants, deer, and geese.
Commission Chair Evans asked about parking for this area. Carol Ford stated that people
park on the street. Bill Platt, 3942 Main St. questioned the moratorium. Randy
Schumacher, Asst. Community Development Director stated the moratorium is needed to
allow the City to plan for the redevelopment of the industrial park. He also stated the
owner of this business needs to relocate due to his need for additional space. This
property is one of the only areas that could be used as industrial development. He has
employees in the City and they make $30,000-$60,000 a year. The owner wants to
construct a new building and is willing to pay market value of$113,000 for the property.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended that the park status be eliminated as
it is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan. Jerry Foss indicated that he is
concerned with where the money would go from the sale of this property. He would like
to see additional money generated for the parks even in the form of a park referendum.
He stated that he is really against giving up park land. Bill Peterson indicated that we
currently don't have money to upgrade or better the parks so we should sell this property
to gain revenue for the parks. Chair Eileen Evans stated that maintenance is expensive
and if we do not plan to develop this property as park land it should be sold and the
revenue should come back to the parks. Motion by Bill Peterson, second by Henry to
remove the park status of the property north of Lomianki, and all revenue generated from
the sale of this property be put back into parks. Upon vote: Evans, yes; Foss, no;
Greenhalgh, yes; Henry, yes; Mayer, no; Payne, yes; B. Peterson, yes. Five yes - Two
no, motion carried.
PAGE THREE
MURZYN HALL RENTAL RATES FOR 2004
Recreation Director, Keith Windschitl explained the staffrecommendation of a 5% rental
rate increase for 2004. He stated a 5% increase would help offset some of the Murz3m
Hall expenses. Mayor Peterson indicated that Council Member Nawrocki would like to
see the resident dis,count go back to 35%. Motion by Foss, second by Greenhaugh to
recommend a 5% increase for 2004 rental rates of Murzyn Hall. All ayes, motion carried.
DNR GRANT POSSIBILITIES
Public Works Director/City Engineer, Kevin Hansen discussed the various grant
possibilities. He indicated that these grants are looking for more regional park use and
generally are not for smaller parks. Ball fields and playground equipment may be applied
for with these grants as well as land acquisition. Sullivan Park is in need of some major
repairs and these rapairs should be put into a grant application. We need to look at the
City five-year capital improvement plan and decide what needs we have. The City is
moving for~vard with the Huset Park master plan. Improvements to Huset Park may be in
the one million dollar range. Motion by Greenhaugh, second by Bill Peterson to
recommend to the City Council to apply for two park grants which are matching grants.
All ayes, motion carried.
REPORTS
Recreation Director, Keith Windschitl, informed the Commission of some changes that
were made to the scholarship form. Changes were made to update the income level. The
Booster Association has donated money each year to cover the scholarships. Each child
may use one scholarship per quarter. They are required to pay 25% of the fee if they
qualify. He also stated there was an editorial in the Focus Newspaper regarding the park
acres in the City of Columbia Heights which was incorrect. Kevin Hansen passed out
accurate figures and they indicated the City has a total of 163.466 acres. Keith
Windschitl, Recreation Director reminded Commission members of the holiday dinner on
December 11, 2002 at Little Jacks.
Kevin Hansen informed the Commission of ice problems again this year. He discussed
the condition of the Ramsdell hockey fink boards and that they are in terrible shape and
need to be removed. Motion by Greenhaugh, second by Foss to remove the hockey fink
boards at Ramsdell due to the poor shape they are in. All ayes, motion carried.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
1-1~L03
I'm writing to you today to ask you to approve of having a benefit for my twin sister
Lynn Johnstone. My twin sister was diagnosed with stage thr~ Cancer in September of'
2002 and had to undergO surgery to have a mastcctomy ,hystcrc~omyand all lymphnodes
removed on October 1 g~ this has been a lot for her to go through being a mother of three
gids and now a single pm'cat Lynn was great at her job she had finished college and
received her degree in pharmacT and had only been at her job for 9 wks when she was
diagnosed with this type of cancer. Lynn worked for Unity Hospital and they gave her
notice that in ordor to kgcp her bca¢fits she must return to work by January 7*. This was
not going to bc easy sincc my sister livcs in ST. Cloud and commutes h~r¢ e~eryday..
Lynn has started kemo therapy and has a long road ahead to fight this disease and the
ncxt phase will be radiation treatments. I think you can understand that trying to
commute and being sick is a hard enough task plus having thrcc b-,ids to take care of. 1
have decided to set up a benefit for my sister in hopes to make things a little easier for her
to grasp this discasc and to help raise moncy for her to pay her bills and to pay for the
treatments to corec. [ do realizc this is gonna be a very hard task but nothing is to hard
cause my sister' is my best friend and my other half' and I nccd her to lac here as long as
god has sot for her to help her girls get through school and to sic tix:m go to collcgc. Mc
and my parents do all we can for tho girls and Lynn and my brother helps as much as he
can right now. I have taken on the respoitsibility of the smallest Kirsten and my parents
help with thc oldcst Cassic and thc middlc one the other grandma helps we are trying to
mal¢c it possible for lynn to take care of' thc girls as much as shc can for now causc wc
don't know it' the cancer has taken over more parts of' her body fill this first round of
chemo is done and she starts radiation. I know you don't know me and my family but I'm
hoping that you will ok it for mc to hold thc bcncfit there because wc graduatcd hcrc and
cveryonc is familiar with Murzyn Hall and wc have bccn there for other functions with
thc 1Wmneapolis fire department and have had a great success with thc hall. The whole
point in having this benefit is to raise money to help lynn and the girls fight this cancer.
The type of cancer lynn has is rarc and spreads ripid, 1 and 20,000 women get this cancer
and thc success rate is low for womca that under 40 and lynn is only 35 and has to rcally
fight right now. If you ace willing to let us do this [ask that you would give us a special
rate for a benefit for it is for a good causc and utc would save that much more money not
paying out as much. I thank you for your time and hope to hcrc from you soon,
Thank You

MEMO
CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS
TO:
FROM:
DATE:
Parks and Recreation Commission
. Kevin Hansen, Director of Public Worst~
January 16, 2003 for Commission meetine; of Janua~ 22, 2003.
SUBJECT:
PARKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN UPDATE
In 1999, a Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) was prepared by staff and reviewed with the Park &
Recreation Commission and again in January of 2001. It has been two years since the Par'ks CIP
has been updated. Since that time the City has reviewed and updated the City of Columbia
Heights Comprehensive Plan. A copy of the 1999 5-year Parks CIP is also attached for reference.
In 2000, staffwas directed to update and complete the CIP for the entire City. Staff subsequently
purchased a software program for CIP maintenance and reporting and has compiled information
in that database. The program provides for ease of input along with ease of updating and
tracking.
For purpose of an initial update review by the Commission, it should be noted that the City
Council directed staff to only include items in the CIP with a dollar value over $I0,000. This has
removed many of the items from the prior listing. Staff is requesting that the existing plan be
reviewed by the Commission and updated prior to the 2004 City Budget session beginning in
June, for year 2004. Items may be moved in terms of years, or new items may be added to the
listing during the review process. As the total dollar amount indicates, the total estimated cost of
improvements far exceeds the capabilities of the City to currently fund all improvements, so
prioritizing each years recommendations becomes very important.
Commission members may want to bring the draft version of the Comprehensive Park System
Plan, dated August 1996, and distributed to the Park and Recreation Commission at their August
1998 regular to this meeting. Please call me if you need a copy prior to the meeting. I would
expect this type of review to take at least two meetings, to reorganize, update and prioritize the
Parks CIP listings. From the discussions at this meeting, I would ask for Commissioner requests
and direction on CIP projects. I will then take that information back to the Parks staff for
additional input with the intent of having a 2003 version at the next meeting.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the CIP information, please feel free to contact
Lauren McClanahan (763) 706-3711 or myself at (763) 706-3705.
Information is presented herein for discussion purposes only; no action is requested of the
com.tissiott at this time
