• <br />• <br />• <br />Park Board Meeting - November 4, 2002 <br />Minutes <br />unclear if the School District would charge a fee for the groups <br />that use the fields. <br />DETERMINE 2002 - 2003 SKATING RINK LOCATIONS AND WARMING HOUSE <br />HOURS: <br />Rick advised staff is recommending the following warming house <br />shelters and hours of operation: <br />PARK LOCATION WEEKDAY HOURS WEEKEND HOURS <br />Sunrise 6918 Sunrise Drive 4 -9 p.m. Saturday 12 -9 p.m. <br />Sunday 12 -6 p.m. <br />Birch 6520 Pheasant Run S 4 -9 p.m. Saturday 12 -9 p.m. <br />Sunday 12 -6 p.m. <br />Lino 7850 Lake Drive 4 -8 p.m. Saturday 12 -8 p.m. <br />Sunday 12 -6 p.m. <br />Staff is also recommending the following ice rink locations that <br />do not have shelters: <br />*City Hall Park <br />Marshan Park <br />Sunset Oaks Park <br />1189 Main Street <br />7204 Lake Drive <br />7481 Leonard Avenue <br />*City Hall Park will still have a hockey rink and general skating <br />area but will not have a supervised warming house due to budget <br />cuts. City staff is working with the youth hockey associations <br />to make arrangements to provide access to the warming house <br />during scheduled hockey practices. <br />Rick noted he believes this whole issue needs to be addressed <br />next year because the skating rinks are not being used that much. <br />Chair Lindy stated the bad winters and the quality of ice have <br />been huge factors in the low use. <br />Rick stated there have been more and more requests from residents <br />to maintain the trails in the winter. From a City staff <br />perspective, it may be more beneficial to put the time and labor <br />into other projects due to the low use. <br />Pat asked if the City has a sense of whether the ice use is walk <br />in participation or drive in participation. If it appears more <br />of the use is drive in, closing one of the rinks would not have <br />too much of an impact. <br />3 <br />
