MINUTES <br />PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION <br />AUGUST 16, 2012 <br />Sunset Court to Preserve Trail /Turnquist Wetland — trail and <br />boardwalk improvements - $250,000 <br />Gervais Mill Park — picnic pavilion and site improvements - $200,000 <br />35E Pedestrian Bridge — N/A <br />LaBore Road — trail improvements - $360,000 <br />Centerville Road /County Road D Phase 2 (Pioneer Park to Edgerton <br />Street — trail improvements - $200,000 <br />Powerline — Payne Avenue to Pioneer Park — trail improvements - <br />$80,000 <br />County Road B2 — Viking Drive to Demont - $60,000 <br />Sanders noted that the biggest change that resulted from the rankings is <br />that the Centerville Road trail connection between Spooner Park and <br />Pioneer Park moved up on the list. It was noted that it will be necessary <br />to acquire easements in order to make this trail connection. Sanders <br />indicated that it was preferable to place the trail connection on the east <br />side of Centerville Road to minimize the need for crossing Centerville <br />Road to access the parks. <br />Maida asked how much funding there was available for these projects. <br />The Director indicated that those figures will be available for the <br />workshop discussion. <br />Maida noted that some of the specific playground equipment <br />improvements are less than shown in the estimates. Sanders replied that <br />that was correct as he has included other amenity improvements such as <br />landscaping, benches, sidewalks, etc. Maida suggested that Sanders <br />might want to separate the specific playground costs from other amenity <br />improvements for discussion purposes. He noted that it might be possible <br />to upgrade playground equipment and delay the other amenities based on <br />whatever funding is available. <br />The Director encouraged the Commissioners to attend the workshop <br />meeting on August 22°1. <br />3 <br />
