8. NEW BUSINESS <br />A. Discuss/Recommend Options for 2010/2011 Ice Rink Attendants <br /> Several options were presented to reduce costs for Rink Supervision <br /> Option A: Keep status quo at cost of $10,500 <br /> Option B: Close Groveland. Overall cost $6700 <br /> Option C: All rinks open during Winter Break and weekends. Overall cost $7500 <br /> Option D: warming houses open only on weekends. Overall cost $5700 <br /> <br /> Look to BBC for contribution toward keeping rinks open. <br /> Rent out Lambert to bring in revenue. Staff with attendant for pleasure rink, but hockey <br /> assoc. would have use of rink. <br /> <br /> Commission prefers Option A because of limited options for park usage in winter, park <br /> equity for attendant staffing, job options for attendants. Peterson can attend City Council <br /> meeting if needed. <br /> <br /> If City Council does not agree with Option A, we ask for a budgeted amount they are willing <br /> to spend and then we need to figure out how to achieve that. <br /> <br />B. Discuss/Recommend Improvements for Bethlehem Baptist Church Donations <br /> $3000 for keeping ice rinks open for Option A <br /> $1000 for L-screen for batting cage at Greenfield <br /> $ any dollar amount toward Lambert improvements (basketball court, gazebo, fencing, <br /> tables, walking path, benches) <br /> <br />C.
