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