Park Board <br />April 2, 2025 <br />pg. 4 <br /> <br /> <br />DRAFT MINUTES <br /> <br />Mr. Gooder inquired as to the park board's remaining balance in the park and trail fund. <br />Mr. DeGardner replied the undesignated fund balance is $162,000. The price rise for <br />wood fiber in Shenandoah Park and Behm's Park might require an extra $10,000. <br />Mr. Kusterman inquired as to whether the park board should use the undesignated <br />funds to update a different park. <br />Mrs. Cutts questioned Mr. DeGardner about the expense of a shelter for Lino Park. Mr. <br />DeGardner replied that a basic concrete shelter would cost between $150,000 and <br />$180,000. <br />Mrs. Ballering would like to spend the additional undesignated funds this year or have a <br />plan to spend the money. <br />Mr. Huelman agrees with Mrs. Ballering. He would like to see the funds used for <br />replacement. A new shelter in Lino Park is something he would like to see. <br />Mrs. Ballering would like to have a planning session to discuss where the funds should <br />be spent. <br />Mr. Huelman agrees with a planning session. <br />Mr. Gooder discussed different types of shelters. He agrees with a planning session. <br />Mrs. Cutts talked about the warming house at Sunrise Park that needs to be updated. <br />Mr. DeGardner stated if the Park Board is interested in exploring the Lino Park shelter <br />possibilities, he will work with city staff on some concept plans as well as cost estimates. <br />Mr. Huelman is in favor of exploring the Lino Park shelter and would also like to review <br />other park amenities that need to be updated. <br />C. Future Packet Distribution <br />Mr. DeGardner summarizes with the new Civic agenda software system, the Public <br />Safety Department will no longer be delivering packets to advisory board members. <br />Angie Thorson will continue to send out an email to all Park Board members (usually on <br />Thursday or Friday of the previous week) with the link to access the electronic version of <br />the Park Board packet. <br />For Park Board members interested in obtaining a hard copy, the packet will be available <br />at the City Hall Community Development/Public Services window by 12 noon the <br />previous Friday. City Hall hours are Monday-Friday 8:00am – 4:30pm. For those that <br />don’t pick them up, we will put them on the dais on meeting night. <br />8.
