Commissioner Kaufman seconded the motion. Voting in favor: Commissioners Harper, Kaufman, Kulzer, Neuburger, Riley, Wills. Opposed: None. Absent: Commissioner Herman. Motion carried. UPDATE ON EMERALD ASH Shawn Markham, Contract Manager/Forester addressed the commissioners BORER and handed out a brief outline of his presentation. He reviewed that the first positive confirmation of Emerald Ash Borer had been discovered in New Hope in 2019. He stated that it was now prevalent throughout the city and had infested roughly 80-90% of all ash trees. He reported that a significant increase in infestations had been observed in 2021 and noted that the planned removal and replacement of ash trees within the city's parks and boulevards had been ongoing. He added that staff had first adopted this removal and replacement policy around 2010 as a proactive measure. Mr. Markham reported that 148 ash trees had been removed from public property in 2021, along with 14 non -ash trees that had been considered hazardous or unhealthy. He explained that the goal would be to replant at a one-to-one ratio. He stated that 42 trees had been planted in 2021 but noted that planting had been suspended in the fall due to budget, drought conditions, availability of trees, and a change in the tree care service provider. Mr. Markham reported that the city had increased its budget and had also received grants from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and Hennepin County to assist with the removal and replacement of ash trees. Mr. Markham reported that thus far in 2022 the city's streets department had removed approximately 25 trees from Civic Center, Victory, Liberty and Sunnyside parks and added that the city's tree contractor had removed approximately 20 trees along the boulevard. He explained that diseased trees were tagged, and property owners would be notified prior to removal. He also reported that the contractor for the 2022 street infrastructure improvement project would be removing approximately 127 ash trees in the northwest corner of the city over the next few weeks. He added that the city would also contact homeowners in that area to offer recommendations for treatment or removal of ash trees located on private property. Commissioner Wills wondered whether homeowners would be responsible for removal of ash trees on private property. Mr. Markham replied yes. He explained that city ordinance currently required removal within seven days of notification but felt this timeline might not be feasible due to the overwhelming demand for tree removal at this time. Commissioner Riley inquired about the success rate for treating diseased trees. Mr. Markham thought that trees with less than 25% canopy dieback could be treated. He explained that the treatment consisted of a systemic insecticide that entered the tree's vascular system and noted that treatments would need to continue every other year for the life of the tree. Mr. Markham reported that the city's streets crew would continue to assist with tree removals as time allowed. Chair Kulzer wondered how the city had informed its residents of the Emerald Ash Borer problem. Mr. Markham stated that all residents should have received a copy of the city's newsletter, "In Touch" recently and noted that it had included an article on Emerald Ash Borer. He added that information was also available on the city's website. Chair Kulzer inquired whether the city offered any type of assistance programs for tree removal. Mr. Markham replied no but mentioned that he had referred residents to Hennepin County Social Services for possible assistance. He also thought that tree care companies might offer payment plans. Mr. Markham also mentioned that if a property owner failed to remove a diseased tree following an official notice, the city would remove the tree and assess the owner. Commissioner Kaufman wondered whether residents could contact the forestry department to request inspection of a tree on private property. Mr. Markham replied yes. Commissioner Kaufman also inquired about recommended replacement trees. Mr. Markham replied that approximately 10 trees were on the city's preferred New Hope Citizen Advisory Commission April 12, 2022 Page 2 tree list, including hackberry, some species of oak, and disease -resistant elm. Commissioner Neuburger asked if trees marked with orange tape were designated for removal. Mr. Markham replied yes. He explained that tape had been used rather than paint in case the adjacent property owner was interested in treating the tree instead. Commissioner Harper inquired about the timeline for tree removal and noted that trees in his neighborhood had been marked last year but had still not been removed. Mr. Markham replied that he was unsure but noted that removal had been halted last year due to budget. Commissioner Harper wondered whether diseased trees were more susceptible to wind damage. Mr. Markham replied yes. Commissioner Riley mentioned that buckthorn had been removed and left in piles at Northwood Park. He wondered when the piles would be removed. Mr. Markham stated that a private contractor would be removing them once the ground firmed up. Chair Kulzer wondered whether the ash borer beetle would eventually go away. Mr. Markham replied that the state of Michigan had been used as a case study and commented that the thought was that the beetle might leave an area once all the mature trees had either been treated or removed. He noted however, that the beetle had since been discovered in smaller trees, making this scenario less likely. He stressed the importance of planting a diverse population of trees. Commissioner Kaufman wondered whether the wood from diseased trees could be used. Mr. Markham stated that the wood would need to be destroyed and noted that it was illegal to transport diseased wood into a county that did not have an Emerald Ash Borer infestation. The commissioners thanked Mr. Markham for his presentation. He excused himself from the meeting at 7:32 p.m. SNOWMAN CONTEST Aaron Thelen, Recreation Supervisor reported that 11 entries had been UPDATE received and the top three entries had been invited to attend the council New Hope Citizen Advisory Commission April 12, 2022 Page 3 meeting on April 25. He added that Chair Kulzer had volunteered to assist with distribution of awards at that meeting. MAY SCHEDULE Chair Kulzer reminded the commissioners that there would not be a meeting on May 10. He added that Liberty Park clean-up had been scheduled for May 17 and stated that it would consist of picking up litter and branches. Commissioner Wills mentioned that ash trees had been removed from the park over the winter and noted that there were piles of branches in the park. The commissioners agreed to meet at Liberty Park at 6 p.m. on May 17. Mayor Hemken was given the floor and noted that the commissioners had expressed interest in planting flowers in the planters along 42nd Avenue. She distributed a map of the planter locations and noted that plants would be available for pickup at the Liberty Park shelter building on May 17. She thanked the commissioners for their willingness to populate the planters. Each commissioner selected a planter location. Commissioner Riley suggested that each commissioner inform Ms. Rader once they had completed their planting. BRAINSTORMING — IDEAS Chair Kulzer inquired about the start-up of the Farmer's Market. TO BRING ATTENTION TO NEW HOPE Mayor Hemken stated that the market would open on June 18. She also reported that Food Truck Fridays would begin on June 10 in the city hall parking lot. Mayor Hemken mentioned the "Name the Snowplow' contest that had been held last winter and wondered if the commissioners might be interested in offering a "Name the Mower" contest or some other type of naming contest. Commissioner Neuburger wondered about naming the golf carts at the New Hope Golf Course. Mayor Hemken brought up the idea of a car show in the Frankie's parking lot and commented that the owner of Frankie's had expressed interest. Commissioner Riley stated that he would contact former commissioner Mike Terres, who had initiated the idea. He stated that he would also speak with the owner of Frankie's and would report back to Ms. Rader. PARKS AND RECREATION Mr. Thelen reported that staff was currently seeking bids for the site work for PROJECT UPDATES the Hidden Valley Park playground project. He stated that bid opening would occur on April 28 and bids would be presented to the City Council on May 9 for approval. He also reported that the dasher boards at the ice arena had been removed and installation of the new boards would occur the week of April 18. New Hope Citizen Advisory Commission April 12, 2022 Page 4 Mr. Thelen reminded the commissioners that the Parks and Recreation department had received a Hennepin County Youth Sports Grant for the purchase of signage and benches at the disc golf course at Sunnyside Park. He explained that this signage included signs for each of the nine holes as well as a master map and rules. He added that the benches had recently been installed and signage would be installed soon. OTHER BUSINESS Chair Kulzer inquired about the aquatic park schedule. Mr. Thelen reported that seasonal staff had been hired and the pool was scheduled to open on June 4 and 5 and would then reopen for the season on June 9. He also reported that the golf course was open for the season. Mr. Thelen reviewed the Step To It program, which was hosted by Hennepin County and designed to encourage activity. He added that program was free and open to all ages and would take place May 1-28. He stated that participants would be eligible to win Minnesota Twins tickets and added that around 26 cities typically participated. Mr. Thelen also reported on the following events: • Bike Rodeo will be held on May 5 at Golden Valley City Hall. • Vehicle Fair will take place June 4 at Crystal Community Center. • Young Mudder is scheduled for June 11 at Valley Place Park in Crystal. Commissioner Neuburger inquired about the ages for Young Mudder. Mr. Thelen replied that it was for ages 6-12 and noted that parents would be able to register for this event as well. Mayor Hemken informed the commissioners that Affinity Plus Federal Credit Union had made a generous donation to the Safety Camp program that would be used to cover registration fees for all 75 kids this summer. Mr. Thelen briefly reviewed the program and added that this three full -day camp for children entering grades 3-5 would take place August 16-18. ADJOURNMENT Commissioner Wills made a motion to adjourn the regular meeting of the Citizen Advisory Commission. Commissioner Neuburger seconded the motion. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 8 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Penny Spitzer Recording Secretary New Hope Citizen Advisory Commission April 12, 2022 Page 5 CP Rail Regional Trail: Golden Valley/New Hope/Crystal Luce Line RT to Crystal Lake RT Segment (Segments E and F) May/June 2022 Update Three Rivers Park District Co -Project Managers Kelly Grissman, Director of Planning Kelly.Grissman@threeriversparks.org ThreeRivers PARK DISTRICT Danny McCullough, Regional Trail System Manager Danny.McCullough@threeriversparks.org Brief Project Summary The CP Rail Regional Trail is envisioned as a north -south multi -use, non -motorized recreational corridor spanning from the Minnesota Valley State Trail in Bloomington to Crystal Lake Regional Trail in Crystal at Becker Park. The regional trail will be planned in segments to allow for thoughtful community engagement and detailed route analysis. This phase will focus on Segments E and F through Golden Valley, New Hope and Crystal between the Luce Line and Crystal Lake Regional Trails. The regional trail corridor was originally centered along the CP Rail line; however, this is not feasible for most of the corridor. Alternative routes will be identified and studied during the master planning process to determine which option best balances feasibility, cost, private property impacts, and safety. Initial Community Engagement: Awareness Building and Destination Preference Summary (May/June) Three Rivers staff attended a few community events that drew participants from all three communities to ask about where people want to walk, bike or visit and to start building awareness of the master planning work. A summary of this engagement is below. Event Background Feedback Summary Paso a Paso • Generally people seemed excited about a new paved, off -road trail April 30 @ Cooper High School in New • About 180 people visited the Three Rivers table; however, few Hope participated in the mapping activity due to familiarity with the Event was attended primarily by Spanish project location as they were from an adjacent community and speaking community members as part of language barrier (instructions and icons were translated to Spanish the Step To It Challenge Kick -Off but other map components like streets/park names were not). Bike Rodeo • Parks and Community Centers, specifically Bassett Creek Park are May 5 @ Golden Valley City Hall popular, desired destinations. Schools and visiting friends and Event was attended primarily for youth family were also desired popular, destinations. ages 3-10 and their families to encourage .

Vehicle Fair • Access to other parks and trails were the most desired destinations. June 4 @ the Crystal Community Center . One family commented on the desire to not place the trail on any Event was attended primarily by families main roads such as Douglas or Winnetka due to traffic volumes and with young children from Crystal and crossings to go east and west. surrounding cities . In total 25 comments, with over half coming from people 18-34 years old. Preliminary Route Review/Approval for Public Engagement (May/June) The project team comprised of Golden Valley, New Hope, Crystal, and Three Rivers staff as well as Toole, the project consultant, have identified three general routes (separate hand out) for preliminary review and for approval to proceed with public engagement. These routes were identified based on existing bike/trail/sidewalk plans, connectivity to parks/school/local destination, potential impact on adjacent properties, anticipated feasibility and project team input. This information will be shared and discussed at the commission and council meetings listed on the following page.
