The City Administrator reported to the Council concerning the meeting held with the Downtowners Association in regard to the various parking problems. The City Council agreed to remove the "Do not enter" sign which exists on the alley way located between the Parking Lot and the backs of the stores on Second Street. The purpose of taking the sign out at this time is to experiment to see if a traffic problem would later develop. If such a problem does develop, it would be re-examined for other action. The City Council is not going to take action concerning the two hour parking limitation in the Downtown Parking Lot itself and further felt that the twice-a week random check by the City Police Department for violators of the two hour parking on Second Street and side streets was a sufficient check and seemed to be working quite effectively. It was further expressed by some members of the Council that if the Downtown store owners had difficulty with their employees parking on Second Street, they certainly have the responsibility to encourage their employees to park in other sections of the area and not in front of the stores themselves on Second Street. It was felt the shopowners had the responsibility in this area as well.

This Park currently provides a great recreational service in the community of Hastings. In view of the fact that the County Board is in the process of buying other lands in Dakota County for the purpose of park use, to then have the County turn around and attempt to sell a Park land area seems to be somewhat contradictory in their overall attempts to provide park facilities for everyone.
