City of Casselberry Parks & Recreation Advisory Board Regular Meeting-- March 14, 2017 Linda Moore reports that the Parks Master Plan should be ready for presentation to the Board late April. She will report equipment concerns to Parks Facilities. Chairman Van Meter reported that the crosswalk at Secret Lake Park may need more adequate signaling. Traffic is consistent there and there are a lot of patrons at the courts at night especially. 9. Staff Reports ® Linda Moore — Parks Master Plan still in progress 10. Audience Participation Mary Penn —121 S. Triplet Lake Drive - Concerned about the homeless issue at Secret Lake Park but said it is getting better by keeping the weeds under the boardwalk area cut down. Another issue that concerned her is the lighting of the new park area near the boat ramp. She feels that the up -lights on the palm trees are intrusive to the residents living there. She mentioned that because of the lights, there are not so many birds on "Bird Island" anymore. She said that the lights are on throughout the evening and this generates visitor activity that is intrusive to the residents living in the peaceful area. They are asking that the lights be turned off at dusk. Tammi Johnson —161 S. Triplet Lake Drive — presented a letter from another resident regarding her concerns about the lit palm trees. She said that the lighting is extremely bright and welcomes after hour activity to the park area. Member Nordstrom thanked the audience for their information. Chairman Van Meter requested that Linda Moore bring these resident concerns to the attention of Kelly Brock. 11, Adjournment Member Holmes moved to adjourn the meeting at 7:48 p.m. Motion was seconded by Member Nordstrom.
