<br />Park Board Minutes <br />July 10, 2017 <br />P a g e | 4 <br /> <br /> <br />Review Centennial School District Facility Rental Charge Impacts <br />Mr. DeGardner reviewed a memo that was discussed at the July 5, 2017 City Council <br />work session related to the recent changes in fees charged to the Parks and Recreation <br />Department by the Centennial School District. He presented a brief history of the past <br />relationship structure with the CSD and LLPRD and provided a financial summary of <br />programs and charges for the Fall of 2016 from CSD. Mr. DeGardner described the <br />impact that these charges have had on our youth instructional programs such as <br />increased field costs and moving our fall soccer from Rice Lake Elementary to other <br />locations. He also provided a list of City Purchased Assets at CSD fields. Noted, CSD <br />purchased three sets of goals and five bleechers. The remaining goals and bleechers <br />were pulled, however the remainder of assets including base boxes, bases and anchors <br />were left at CSD for community use. <br />The Board suggested the possible use of Lino Lakes Elementary School moving <br />forward. They also suggested using our local parks with open space to hold different <br />programs in these parks that kids could still be involved in but walk to from local <br />neighborhoods. <br />Review Removal of Arena Acres Tennis Courts <br />Mr. DeGardner informed the Park Board on the decision to remove the nets and the <br />shutdown of the court surface at the Arena Acres Tennis Courts and provided them a <br />copy of a letter that was sent to the surrounding residents. He also informed them of an <br />email sent from a resident of the neighborhood regarding keeping the tennis courts <br />which questioned our decision. <br />Review Condition of Marshan Boardwalk <br />The Board will meet after the meeting at Stage Coach Trail to look at the Marshan <br />Boardwalk to review the condition of this 20 year old section of the boardwalk. <br />6.
