REPORT OF CC"TEE ON COUNTY PARK DISTRICT, TO ISAGUE OF HENPIEFIN TOTINS AND
NU@JICIPALITBS, dated October 12, 1956, was reviewed for the Council by Hanager
Hyde. This committee report advocates - 1. Hennepin County Park District
should be immediately activated under the 1955 law by affirmaiive resolution
of the majority of governing bodies of the municipalities in Hennepin Countytt.
2.
Legislature to limit regulatory power of the proposed coun$y park board over
lakes within the county solely to lakes lying wholly within parks and to any
Lake shoreline within a park1'. The detailed rep& listed seven reasons for
the committee's action, being in part - 1. Hennepin County needs to acquire
as soon as possible, large tracts of land which are suitable for eventual
developnent as natural parks. 2. It is not fair to expect some municipalities
to,provide large parks for the entire county to use.
which can receive and hold gifts of land for general county park purposes.
Rural and suburban Hennepin will elect and control the proposed county park
board. Hr. Hyde reported that the Rinnetonka Communities no longer oppose
this project because they have. gotten together to prbvide for local regulation
of Lake Pkhnehonka by joint action; and Attorney Spencer reported that the
Executive Committee of the Citizens League of Minneapolis and Hennepin County
has agreedto sponsor this project, also. Upon inquiry by the Cokcil as to
the administrative body for the proposed County Park Board, Mr. Hyde said the
present plan is for a seven-man park board, appointed in the first instance
by the county board, and elected thereafter, He presented two resolutions,
advocated by the committee for adoption by the various municipalities. Fro&
