Mike and Dave indicated that water in the s rin could f <br />p g o ten reach <br />the east edge of the park, but never reached in the direction of the <br />proposed park building/play area site. Carol also indicated that the money <br />could not be used on the ball field, since it was not a regulation size, e.g. on <br />a new backstop. We agreed it would be good to remove the broken stuff <br />from the site, including the rusting, broken backstop that is presently there. <br />Carol felt it was important to be clear that there would probably be no <br />skating at the site the winter of '91-'92, to protect the new grass. <br />It was unanimously agreed by the Park and Rec. Commission <br />members that we should make a recommendation to the City Council to hire <br />Barton/Aschman for its park planning services at the Idaho/Snelling park <br />contingent on receipt of the grant. It was important to have this <br />recommendation into the city council before the public meeting, which Scott <br />would help run. The public meeting was set for Tuesday, January 22 at <br />6:30 pm at City Hall. Carol will send flyers to the homes near the park and <br />will put flyers about the meeting in the warming house. Carol will try to put <br />a notice in both the city newsletter and the Focus and Review. <br />We discussed whether we need a proposal from the architect who did <br />the community park. We agreed that the consistency and coordination <br />between the park buildings would be an asset to the city's parks. We also <br />already had a schematic design from the architect, for which we had already <br />• paid. Carol indicated that the architect firm was interested in doing this <br />building as well. Further discussion of the building was tabled. <br />Carol K indicated that it was important not to incur costs associated <br />with the project before we received grant notification. She indicated that <br />she would call them to find out when we would be receiving official <br />notification. We agreed that we should make the recommendation for the <br />hiring of Barton/Aschman even if the final contract needed to be signed <br />later. Carol K indicated that Jan W. could work out the details and protocol <br />for the hiring of Barton/Aschman. <br />As there was no further business, the meeting was concluded at 8:45 <br />pm. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />~g ~_ <br />Linda McLoon, Secretary <br />• <br />
