Park Board May 7, 2025 pg. 3 DRAFT MINUTES Mrs. Ballering asked if the county was making repairs to 20th Avenue, would that be the time to discuss trails. Mr. DeGardner replied yes. Mrs. Schmidt asked what it would take to get a trail to Tower Park. Is there any funding for trails or a park? Matt Phillips discussed the trail system to the parks. 400 to 500 feet of trails are needed. Access to Tower Park gets them to Lower Lamotte Park. Mr. DeGardner stated that it has been our priority for several years to connect trails to the regional park system. Mrs. Schmidt stated that we will keep looking into park development. Mr. Huelman discussed the park and trail fund. Mrs. Ballering suggested residents contact the City Council regarding their concerns. Mr. Huelman made a motion to recommend 100% cash dedication in lieu of land. Mrs. Ballering seconded the motion. Motion carried 5 – 0. 7. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Discuss Replacing Lino Park Shelter Mr. DeGardner summarizes The Park Board directed staff to explore the potential replacement of the Lino Park shelter that was built in 1986. Staff is recommending a Poligon Tiara 25’ x 37’ structure. This is a two tier, “extended hex” design that fits the space well and provide plenty of space for tables. The roof is a 5:12 pitch metal roof with stained tongue and groove wood on the underside. The Parks Department will take care of demolition and site prep. The project cost breakdown is as follows: 25’ x 27’ Poligon Tiara Shelter $68,414 Concrete – 6 footings, 30’ x 46’ slab $25,910 Installation of Shelter $33,000 TOTAL $127,324 If we move forward, enhancements including masonry work around the footings and electrical work will be explored. Mr. Huelman likes the look of the shelter. He supports trying for as many utilities as we can. He also supports adding a divider so that two groups can access the shelter. Mr. DeGardner replied that the shelter space is too small for a divider.
