Huelman then asks the board if they should put that down as an alternate "A" . f Rick DeGardner states that they know what they have to work with right now so now it' s just soliciting bids. Could put the trail down as an amendment or potential add-on. Pat Huelman asks if that would be a friendly amendment.

New Business It was discussed that the Park Board would look into having a Park Board work session to discuss parks and prioritize plans for 2019 fund recommendations. 8. Old Business Richard Jensen discussed Birch Park and the issue that was raised about the stairs. Asked if there was any way that could be refined or if that is a space issue . Rick DeGardner stated that it' s a space issue and the slope wouldn't work for a switch back and it wouldn't be ADA compliant. So changing of the stairs to a switch back , design can't be done. Andrea Schmidt brought up the 12th Avenue trail. Asked Rick DeGardner if it was correct that it would cost $ 150 ,000 to connect the trail in which Rick DeGardner stated that she was correct. Andrea then asked Rick "What is all involved in that cost" . Rick states that there is a drainage ditch located adjacent to 12th Avenue creating some drainage issues. Since the drainage ditch takes up most of the existing right-of-way, land acquisition will be needed. Engineering, surveying, and actual construction costs are also included in the estimated project cost. Clark Gooder mentioned that the park signage that was discussed in the September Park Board meeting should be included in the future comprehensive park plan . Pat Huelman agreed that they would need to bring the signage situation forward to the comprehensive plan when putting that together. 9. Next Scheduled Park Board Meeting — November 05 , 2018 Page 5
