BoardLake Elmo Parks Commission Meeting
The Commission evaluated proposals for a 76-acre park sports complex project, ultimately recommending that the City Council select HKGI as the consultant. The discussion included the scoring criteria used, emphasizing experience, approach, community engagement, and project cost. The Commission also proposed that the consultant create a separate deliverable or analysis regarding the environmental impacts on the Lake Elmo Park Reserve and Sunfish Lake. Additionally, the Commission discussed a potential donation from the Lake Elmo Baseball Association for improvements to the Ridge Park baseball field, which would involve upgrades to the backstop, baseline fencing, and dugouts.
