Paul/ftamsey County Parks. As you know, the riends of the Parks preliminary "study" some months ago conclu ed such a major study was in order. At that time I indica ed to you that I felt such a study was inevitable for the riends--t'�at they had intended from the very beginning to do uch a thing. Therefore, this request for "approval" to go ahe d comes as no surprise, and I think it is fine i� the Fr�ends ant to do such a thing since it may eventually help �s jus ify outside funding for Parks and Recreation needs. What does come as a surprise is a request �or- $1 ,000 from the budget to demonstrate the City' s interest and co itment to a study. I told Truman that , while the study woul be nice, I did not consider it essential and certainly woul not take $10, 000 from the department budget to see it get done. It appears the St . Paul Foundation will give $10 ,000 for this study if, according to Nancy Harris, we and the ounty each kick in $10,000. P,�y recommendation to you, when Truman approaches you, is to encourage them to be responsible for raising a11 the study funding. I don' t feel we can justify this expen 'iture from �` the department budget. He will ask you if you w 11 provide $10, 000 from elsewhere in the budget . I have no in any way .�: encouraged him to do this, but it is his right , f course, to do so. Frankly, I have predicted �o Truman' that you would be unlikely to agree to the expenditur:e for a "luxu y" when there are so many oth�er needs. P. S. Truman has guaranteed that this request ill not affect - our $192,000 for the conservatory, wh�ch is on the same agenda.

What are common areas of concern which both systems co id - address on a 'partnership" basis? Equally important, is the question of an adequate and sta le source of funding for parks. What type of cooperation can be established between the public/private sector? Do we need a Parks Foundation to receive cash, property gifts, and bequests. What will be the policy regarding the sale of open space a d school properties? , The Friends recommend a task force of citizens be appoi ted by the city and the county, which includes broad representation from a 1 interested groups. The task force should engage a consuiting fi , which � has experience with park systems around the country, to exam ne the� policy issues and to develop a long term comprehensive plan fo both park systems. _ , � _ . __ _ _ _ 70� _ , _ ��°` - - - - _2_ - The resident taxpayers of St. Paul and Ramsey �ounty and t e park employees will all benefit from this study.
