. ~ ~Pw..k -4-'R~ec M.. ~. ~'~ 3 Crafts: 7 Even though karate and cheerleading were a bit low, we decided to go with them anyway, since that age child is hard to reach. The following questions were brought up. How many non-residents were in our programs? Carol indicated that she did not have to turn away any residents of Falcon Heights. We were also curious as to what Roseville Rec classes people were taking. Can we offer any of the classes we are subsidizing through our non-resident reimbursement program? We also mentioned that we needed to assess whether to charge non-resident fees for our programs. Carol said she would get these figures and bring them to the next meeting. Ice Cream Social Lloyd indicated that the Falconeers were informed of the date of the Ice Cream Social, July 28, and were committed to bringing their usual wonderful assortment of cakes. Connie felt that the amount of work at the Ice Cream Social should be shouldered by all the commissions and not just ours. Connie is going to contact the chair of the Solid Waste Commission to have several of its members help out between 8-9, Pat will call the chair of the Planning Commission to help our between 7-8 and Linda will call the chair of the Human Rights Commission to help out between 6-7. Members of the Parks and Rec Commission will be there during the whole evening. We need volunteers to help serve cake, scoop ice cream, sell tickets and serve beverages. Playground Equipment and Park Benches We decided to wait until we had further assessed repair costs before committing to buying play equipment (small children climber at Idaho and Snelling and a new slide at the Community Park). We will try to incorporate everything into along-range plan. Carol passed around pictures of benches and gliders. She will order these during the month. She wants to get a wooden one, so that it won't get so hot in the sun. Grant for Warming House All the grants for state money for parks necessitate at least a 5096 share of the expense for the city. It would appear that the situation at the Grove and general landscaping is right in line with the priorities for money with these granting agencies. We decided we need a plan before we could commit $4,000 of city funds for even the basic landscaping solution at the Grove. Park Permits and Beer It has come to the attention of Jan and Carol that someone who was issued a park permit sold beer at the Park (potentially to minors). This is a direct violation of the City Code. Carol indicated that we needed to make the Park Permits more clear and spell out all of our rules clearly. We also needed to inform the police that no one can sell anything in the park. We agreed that we needed separate permit forms for the park and for beer use in the park. We also need to clearly check the age of the person obtaining the beer permit. We decided that all people getting a park permit (whether they have to pay for the use or not) need to leave a damage deposit. We settled on $50 deposit without a beer permit and $100 deposit with a beer permit. We looked over the city code and felt that a number of sections needed clarification and updating. These include section 3c, which was poorly worded and sounded like we prohibit riding a cat in the park, we need to add a section prohibiting any motorized vehicles in the park, to increase the time on the tennis courts from 40 to 60 minutes and the like. Carol said she would work on this.
