7. UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. Review Trail and Sidewalk Plan: Table for December meeting. B. Discuss Disc Golf Course Modifications at Silver View Park: Mike Snelson from Fairway Flyers gave recommendations to adjusting the course. The rough draft follows remnants of an original course that still has some pipes and overgrown fairways. Proposed course would accommodate 9 holes in the woods on the west side of the parking lot. Option to add a water containment pond, by holes 7 and 8. Course design would assist with preserving high-value trees and removing low-value trees. Many low-value trees will need to be managed and thinned out anyway. Targets should be replaced with more durable and deeper baskets. Can add rebar and cement for theft deterrent. Could use a wrap as a buffer for trees. Can we combine the tree locations with the proposed rough course in a new layout? Need to consider erosion issues and run-off paths. The proposed rough draft does not have many erosion issues. 9-hole disc golf estimate: $8100 for materials. $1000 for design. City Staff can do the labor. Have a forester mark high-value trees before the designer comes in. Mike will put a cost estimate together and give to City Staff and timeline recommendations. Staff will retrieve course information from Greenfield. Consider having a sub-committee to put data together with recommendations. 8. NEW BUSINESS A.
