January 20, 1975 -2- For the warming house at the Hall Park It was agreed that concrete block would probalby be the best construction and the sturdiest dor all purposes. There will have to be some type of ventilation at the top especially in the restroom areas. Mr. Resch suggested glass block windows with the Inset for ventilation purposes as perhaps the best and the least likely to be vandalized. r, floor drain wli ! also have to be put in to aid In cleaning and to r.r-ctecr the buifdIng In case the toilets or sinks get plugged and overflow. t was suggested that the plans conform somewhat to the freeway rest areas th-t have been constructed aicng the interstates. A new pump would have to be put In with adequate pressure for the ;warming house and for f;ooding at the Hall Park. Mr. Resch stated that he had c:iecked Into the type of pump needed and felt that one that would produce 7,000 gallons per hour would be adequate. ?Bore was a discussion on price range that could be looked at and Mr. McLean �Avised the Commission to look at design rather than try to figure costs r !pht now. He baid that after the ideas have been submitted to a draftsman and the drawings returned, they would be in a better position to talk rp pel-e. The main thing right now was to determine a size and try to standardized tax,. layout of the structure as much as possible, so that it could be used a* all future parks. T'ie warming houses should be at least 24 x 36 with bathroom facilities at oro end. The bathrooms should contain 4 stools - 2 each. Some kind of outBide entrance that could be locked in the winter should be considered. Mrs.LeTourneau suggested that the Commission keep a multi-purpose building l- mind, not ,just one that would be utilized during the winter months. rvA-s . Kendall rem!nded the Commission that a plug-in and bubbler for coffee s`;ouid be considered In the original plans, because of the great difficulty { -aking a pot of coffee at Sunrise now. The matter of heat for the warming house at the Hail Park was also discussed. Tf�e Hail has gas, forced air heat now and the warming house would probably use tL, same type. The cost of heating the warming house in minimal , it should n-.t be kept any warmer that 45-55 degrees. 1°r. Resch brought up the matter of additional parking at the Hall mark and s�lggested that a road be put In with access off of Main Street. This Is u--#ng considered and will be discussed at length at the next meeting. �i=:fore the next meeting Mr. Resch will do some research on the h^�i iocatlon 'ter the Warming House at t`-F Mall Park and also a parking area.
