4 <br /> 111/1 MEMO TO: Par . • reation Coumissioners <br /> r <br /> FROM: Sta <br /> DATE: Febru.ry 24, 1982 <br /> RE: Park shelter buildings <br /> As you 're aware the Fire Chief and City Council formally condemned our <br /> park shelter buildings during the past year. As a result we rented portable <br /> buildings to meet our winter skating needs. In addition we have already <br /> removed the Oakwood Park shelter building and the Woodcrest and Hillview <br /> buildings are scheduled to be moved in the next two months. <br /> Staff updated the Council at their regularly scheduled February 22, 1982 meetina <br /> on our building progress and the Mayor raised the issue of possibly repairing <br /> existing buildings rather than constructing new ones. Staff reiterated their <br /> position that the existing buildings were in such poor condition that we could <br /> 11111 not justify repairing the buildings and they did not work into our long range <br /> park plan from both a function and location perspective. The Mayor's major <br /> concern centered around vandalism; parks in general and the buildinas specifically. <br /> As this issue is one that will be a major discussion point for months to come <br /> staff indicated to the Council that we would raise the issue before the Park <br /> Commission. Staff has no formal recommendation regarding the status of park shelter <br /> buildings but would like to offer the following support data: <br /> 1. The two buildings at Hillview and Woodcrest have experienced additional <br /> vandalism over the winter months . <br /> 2. The Oakwood building has been removed. <br /> 3. We have purchased a building for Lambert Park, <br /> 4. There are no buildings at Groveland, City Hall , Silver View, Random or <br /> 111/1 Ardan Park. <br /> 5. The buildings at Greenfield and Lambert could be salvaged, but we have <br /> removed the interior planks to construct benches for the portable buildings, <br />
