City either R-6 or R-7. The report describes each parcel's topography,
ownership, how it relates with the comprehensive plan, zoning and uses
of neighboring property, and finally, a recommendation for possible
rezoning. Mr. McGarvey stated the proper procedure, at this point, is

states are candidates for rezoning.

Recreation Committee had reviewed the proposal at a special meeting on
September 15, 1988, and had recommended against purchasing the five
acre piece of property by a 4 to 2 vote.

CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 19, 1988
Significant Council discussion followed and involved comments/concerns
over the high asking price of the Goff land, large use of the .park by
residents of Apple Valley, the need for. long range park planning, the
number of park acres in the Valley Park area in relation to the rest of
the community and the advantages/disadvantages of purchasing park land
inside vs. outside of the MUSA line.
Wenceslaus Ruhmann made a lengthy presentation to the .Council on the
proposed park land purchase, in which he made a number of arguments in
support of the purchase of the five acres. He stated that, in his
opinion, the Park and Recreation Committee had lost touch with the
issue because of special interests and lack of knowledge of the facts
of the .issue. He concluded his presentation by stating that while this
is considered a neighborhood issue, in truth all city issues are
neighborhood issues and the needs of the Valley Park neighborhood
should be addressed.
Kevin Illa, a member of the Park and Recreation Advisory Committee,
also spike to the council regarding the possible land purchase. He
stated he was against the purchase of the Goff property because the
Valley Park area, .while only a quarter of Lakeville population, has 36%
of the total acreage of neighborhood type parks. He concluded his
comments. by stating that the proposed cost of $87,000 to $100,000 was
too high and the money could be better spent.
Pat Messinger, a member of the Park and Recreation Committee, stated
that the type of park land we are short of in the City is natural open
land. As a result, she supported the purchase of the five acres for
.the expansion of Valley Lake Park.. She also stated that the growth in
the north side of Lakeville is continuing at a rapid rate and Valley
Lake Park will be inadequate in size without the additional land
purchase in the future for community needs. She went nn to state the
Park and Recreation Committee minutes did not, in her opinion, truly
indicate the level of support of the park land purchase by the people
who spoke at the meeting.
Mary McDonald, a member of the Park and Recreation Committee, stated
that now is not the time to close the door on providing the Valley Park
neighborhood with the park land we need. Also, the City should provide
parks to where people are living now, not outside the urban service
area.
Jeff Bry, representing the Valley Park Homeowners Association, stated
his support of the purchase of the property for the expansion of the
park. He stated-the Valley Park neighborhood was in support of the
park bond referendum when it passed in 19:86. Now we need to get a
return from our support of the parks. He concluded his presentation by
asking the Council to disregard the ill-informed decision of the Parks
Committee and purchase the land for the expansion of Valley Lake Park
