BUSINESS  Lakefront Park Update and Design Discussion with Consultant Amber, Consultant Project Manager from Facet for the Lakefront Project, went over an update/overview of schedule, permits submitted on local and federal, hearing land use procedure and background for the Board as there are a few new members. Amber then went through interpretation concepts. Interpretation concepts are to provoke people to do more research, not read and be done with the idea.  Park Board will host a separate meeting to start on the history/sign research project, that will keep the naming process in mind.  Blue Heron Park Project Update Turnout is going well, even pushed through working in the snow last work party. Continuing clean- up for planting later this year. Work parties will continue the 2nd Saturday of each month, 9AM to Noon.  eNews Article Submission for May Linda is working with Climate Hub wall at third place commons. Good place to advertise Park Board articles and such. Cory will work on a Lakefront Park blurb for future climate hub feature.  2026 Community Events Upcoming events, the 5k Pack the Park will take place May 9th starting at Animal Acres, this is its 10th year. The Green Fair will be April 4th at the Commons.

All voted in favor to approve Tyler as the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Chair and Amy as the Vice-chair.  Other Amy noted the leaves on the new art installation seem to be pointy, Cory will have the Public Works crew take a look at it. Amy wondered what the status of the pickleball items are. Cory noted the City will look at windscreens and benches to be installed at Horizon View, and coordinate with the LFP elementary school for additional benches. Will look at the lighting requests but this seems to be a much larger capital project outside of this council allocation scope. PUBLIC COMMENTS None ADJOURN: 6:05 PM
