<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 4. New projects to be discussed. <br />Water service to gazebo. The water service is roughed in and will be completed in May. The various types of locking handles were discussed. We will leave it up to the public works <br /> crew to decide on which type is the most effective. <br />Planter/flower beds in the gazebo area. Bob McNeil will check with the Lioness to see if they are interested in this project. Colleen Coyle has volunteered to plant the flowers. Steve <br /> and Colleen Coyle gave a donation to the Lions to be used for flowers at Lakeside. The area around the gazebo is not yet irrigated. SLP public works employee Steve Coyle will design <br /> the system and give us a quote. <br />Playground renovation. The plan from 2001 was reviewed. A suggested change is to move the south edge of the playground further away from the shelter pad as the location of the existing <br /> area is a hazard. People using the shelter are often seen stumbling off the edge into the sand play surface. We will get an updated quote as prices have risen since 2001. Marian <br /> will ask for a total project quote along with quotes for doing the project in stages. <br />Other new project ideas. <br />Lower old shelter? If lowered, would need to install a plywood ceiling so kids wouldn’t climb into the rafters. <br />Gazebo will need to be touched up this spring where places were missed during painting this past fall. Al Fisher stated that while he was up in the ceiling of the gazebo painting last <br /> fall, he heard residents talking about “who is paying for this” and “why weren’t the residents allowed to vote on this expense”. Al did inform them that the gazebo was built with donated <br /> funds from the Lions. Marian will put an article in the Spring Lake Park city newsletter informing people of the Lakeside Lions Park improvements and how they are funded through donations. <br />More trashcans will be needed by spring. Marian will check on ordering more. <br />Marian will have public works pull the guard chair out this spring so people won’t think there is a lifeguard on duty. <br />Future path lighting was briefly discussed. <br />Spring cleanup is April 16th in Spring Lake Park. It was discussed to have volunteers from Lions, area scouts, and the community come help clean out the brush on the south and west <br /> boundaries of the park. Spring Lake Park public works will mark trees that should not be disturbed. Marian will check with the Mounds View Lions on their availability.
