3 planting of bulbs at particular times of the year e.g. in the fall. Gray stated that this could be tied in with the schools, in a similar way to the Arbor Tree day event. Discussion focused on ideal spots for the blooms, annuals versus perennials; and the importance of having parameters because of the varying heights and states in between bloom. There was a consensus to bring it back as an agenda item in August. Bike Rodeo The idea of having a Bike Rodeo event was discussed. This would be headed up by the Police Department working in conjunction with Medina Elementary. It would help teach kids and parents about safety. Par course Board member Gray stated that she had received enquiries on the whereabouts of the balance beam. Chair Blazey stated that the equipment had been removed systematically.

It was agreed to keep the item on the agenda going forwards. Walkable Medina City Manager Sauerwein updated the Park Board on the recent community event.

A discussion ensued on moving forward with this piece of work. OTHER BUSINESS Park Projects update including Playground equipment/project. City Manager Sauerwein updated the Park Board on the recent discussions regarding the Playground expansion, notably that the playground expansion would be included as a 2017 budget amendment and the work would likely commence in the spring of Park board members expressed concern at the later timing and there was a consensus that it would make more sense both practically and financially to have the work carried out sooner.
