MOUNMtSVVIEW <br />Item No: 8H <br />Meeting Date: May 9, 2022 <br />Type of Business: CB <br />Administrator Review: <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Don Peterson, Director of Public Works/Parks and Recreation <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9593, Authorizing the Repairs and Resizing of the <br />Lambert Park Hockey Rinks <br />Background/Discussion: <br />At several past Parks, and Recreation and Forestry Commission meetings, discussion <br />occurred regarding the size of the hockey rink at Lambert Park. <br />Staff proposed to reduce the overall size of the hockey rink at Lambert Park; create a 3/ <br />sized hockey rink, and move the pleasure rink to the North -end of what is currently the <br />hockey rink (see map attached). <br />Staff proposed the reduction in size of the hockey rink for several reasons, one being the <br />amount of damage that is occurring to the infield ball diamond because it is doubling as a <br />pleasure rink. The turf is damaged each year from plowing and driving on the grass during <br />the winter months; Staff restores the turf each spring. <br />Usage on the rink has declined over the year and most individuals who use the rink to play <br />hockey, will typically take the hockey nets and move them so they are on the short side or <br />width of the rink. <br />Staff met with vendors and contractors to obtain pricing: <br />Home Depot - New Lumber and Hardware for Boards $ 9,503.89 <br />Keller Fencing - New Chain link fencing and posts $24,454.00 <br />Voss Lighting - New LED Rink Light $ 4,375.00 <br />Lake Area Electric - Installing of rink lights 5,000.00 <br />Total $43,332.89 <br />Staff is also recommending a 7% contingency of $3,033.00 for any unforeseen issues that <br />may arise with this project and for any cost increases that may occur. <br />Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: Maintain and Plan for Infrastructure Improvements. <br />Financial Impact: No financial impact to the 2022 budget as the Parks Dedication Fund <br />includes $60,000.00 for Lambert Park Hockey Boards, account 451-4470-7050. <br />The Mounds View Vision <br />A Thriving Desirable Community <br />
