1 <br />Park Board Meeting - November 5, 2001 <br />Minutes <br />The schematic design costs estimate, including add on facility <br />development items as well as add on premium level development items <br />for completed development of the athletic complex amounts to $7.3M. <br />Rick stated he has indicated the development items he feels should <br />be included in the construction of the athletic complex. This <br />results in a total development cost of $5,827,200. <br />The possible referendum scenario also includes $975,000 for <br />neighborhood park improvements and $469,500 for the development of <br />trails. This results in a total referendum amount of $8,271,700. <br />In analyzing the estimate tax impact numbers, Rick stated he is <br />still concerned with the significant tax impact to residential <br />property owners. For example, for a $8.5M referendum issued for 20 <br />years, a house valued at $200,000 will be assessed $145 ($12.08 per <br />month). He stated he is not sure if a majority of residents in <br />Lino Lakes would support such an increase. <br />Based on the referendum scenario, Rick stated it would be difficult <br />to pursue a referendum for less than $8M. It is important to <br />commit a substantial amount of dollars to develop new neighborhood <br />parks and enhance existing parks. The trails identified in the <br />possible referendum scenario are important trail connects and would <br />provide additional support for residents who would not utilize an <br />athletic complex. <br />Rick asked for feedback from the Park Board Members. He indicated <br />he intends to discuss this subject with the City Council next month <br />since the City Council needs to make a final determination whether <br />to pursue a bond referendum next spring. <br />Paul asked if Rick perceives any other significant dollars that may <br />need to be spent on the parks, athletic complex and trails over the <br />course of the referendum term. Rick stated he envisions the park <br />and trail needs would mainly relate to maintenance. The complex <br />would need additional funding for things such as staffing and <br />equipment. <br />Paul asked if there are any parks or trails not listed on the <br />referendum scenario. Rick stated there are some existing parks <br />that need enhancements. The list is primarily parks that have been <br />master planned but are vacant. <br />Chair Lindy stated the monthly tax increase does not seem like that <br />much when you visualize the benefits. <br />Bill noted that many citizens may be anticipating more levies down <br />the road for things such as the schools. Rick added there is <br />�--- 5 <br />
