CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT 1988, OPINION SURVEY A. Rice Lake Estates Don Volk explained 2 lots in Rice Lake Estates were obtained as park land, lots 1 block 2. Also, block 1 could be used for a parking area. Mr. Volk stated he would like the Park Board to consider what they would like to do at Rice Lake Estates Park and discuss this at the October Meeting. B . 1988 Budget Improvements - $8, 000 Don Volk recommends spending the money at Rice Lake Estates or Ericksons Park - starting the process of improvements . Mr. Volk will put together a proposal making suggestions as to where the money could effectively be spent . BALLFIELD LOCATION - SUNRISE V. S. SUNRISE MEADOWS Mr. Volk explained that in looking at the ballfield he can see some problems that may occur there. We cannot re-position the ballfield without adversly effecting another ballfield. Both of the north fields are used a minimum of 5 nights a week by the Centennial Little League. Mr. Volk suggests a 2 - 3 foot high berm and planting trees and shrubs along the right of way line on the north end of the fields . Mr. Volk stated this would be the most fesible thing to do, asthetically, people living adjacent to this will look at it as a buffer, and he feels Park Board should keep these fields for the Little League. Chairman Johnson suggests putting up the berm, and then if necessary, installing a fence to block any foul balls hit towards the street. This will be brought to the Park Boards attention in the near future. OLD BUSINESS: A. Greater Centennial Area Park and Recreation Committee - Update - Ken Johnson Page 4
