The Parks and Recreation Department recently applied for some Active Living Mini Grants through
the Dakota County Public Health Department. I am pleased to inform you that the City of Hastings
has been awarded three of these grants in the following amounts:
1.$5,600 for bike racks to be purchased and placed along the Mississippi River section of our
loop trail system.
2.$7,400 to place additional way finding signs/maps along various sections of the 29 miles of
Hastings trail system.
3.$5,000 for a feasibility study and design plan of a proposed youth complex addition at
Veterans Park.
The funds from these awarded grants must be spent by June 30, 2010. Parks & Recreation Department
staff will proceed with these projects with the use of this grant funding.
Thank you!

Barry,
Congratulations!
The Award Committee has made its final determinations for the Active Living Mini Grants based upon input
from the Review Committee, and two applications from Hastings for bike racks and wayfinding signs have
been selected to receive $5,600 and $7,400 in funding, respectively.
Pat Stieg will work with the Contracts Division to get that process started. As you are aware, the funds must be
spent by June 30, 2010.
I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your applications and your commitment to Active Living in
Dakota County. If you have any questions, please let me know.
