Park Board <br />January 3, 2024 <br />pg. 2 <br /> <br /> <br />DRAFT MINUTES <br /> <br />7. DISCUSS CLLL PROPOSAL FOR SUNRISE PARK IMPROVEMENTS <br />Mr. Rick DeGardner, Public Services Director give a summary that the City recently <br />received a letter from Centennial Lakes Little League (CLLL) regarding Sunrise Park <br />improvements. The proposal includes: <br />Fields #1 and #2 - Convert to little league fields. This includes moving the outfield fences <br />from 285 feet to 210 feet. Dugouts are currently being installed, with CLLL providing all <br />materials and labor (except City drill holes for support posts). <br />Fields #3 and #4 - Install dugouts in 2025 with CLLL providing all materials and labor. <br />Additional Field - CLLL is proposing to create an additional field in the southwest corner <br />of Sunrise Park with CLLLL providing the ag-lime for the infield, dugouts and benches, <br />home plate and bases, backstop and fencing. <br />The Park Board originally discussed this proposal during the December 6, 2023 meeting. <br />Staff is in support of improving the existing four ball fields at Sunrise Park. Creating an <br />additional field warrants further review. Parking and neighborhood impacts merit further <br />discussion. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan recommends a master plan be prepared prior <br />to any new development to reconsider how activity areas are organized for a better fit and <br />orientation and to determine which sports fields should remain on this site or be moved to <br />improve overall quality. Attached is the Sunrise Park Page in the 2040 Comprehensive <br />Plan. <br />Mr. Kusterman inquired if the fields are used for any adult softball leagues. Mr. <br />DeGardner replied that it’s been several years since the fields have been used for adult <br />leagues. <br />Mr. Kusterman discussed the City of Lino Lakes' contribution to youth sports, which is <br />the grant of field use and maintenance. <br />Mrs. Schmidt asked if there was room to expand parking at Sunrise Park. <br />Mr. DeGardner discussed the size and amenities of Sunrise Park and its location. <br />Mr. Kusterman asked if the residents of Sunrise Park would see a significant increase in <br />people due to adding another field. <br />Mrs. Schmidt agrees to work with Centennial Little League. Concerns are parking, <br />traffic, and bathroom issues. <br />Mr. DeGardner discussed moving forward with fields 1 through 4. Discussing Sunrise <br />Park's new field at a later spring meeting. <br />Mr. Huelman agrees with moving forward with fields 1 through 4.
