<br />b) T-Mobile’s proposal to construct a building and antenna pole at Groveland Park <br />Motion by Palm, 2nd by Kunza to reject any and all proposals to rent Groveland Park space for the installation of communication equipment. Discussion included encouraging T-Mobile to <br /> explore other options such as Abiding Savior Church. Commission needs to be careful to consider this type of usage in any of our parks, including Arden Park as it could set precedence. <br /> T-Mobile has changed their options regarding the building/structure which would interfere with the park aesthetics and usage, despite monetary benefits. Groveland is a park and needs <br /> to stay a park. Motion Passed 6-0. <br /> <br />6.

Commissioner/Staff Reports: <br />Random Park Building Status Report <br />As part of an Eagle Scout Project, the interior space of the Random Park Building was primed this last weekend. The process went well. The same group will be painting the building next <br /> Saturday. The carpet contractor will be installing the carpet on Thursday, December 29th. Suggested to invite the scouts to attend next meeting for recognition with a certificate. <br />Groveland Park Building Status Report <br />There was a glitch with the overhang; the material was not thick enough to accommodate the length of nails specified. The contractor had to put a layer of 5/8" plywood on the overhang <br /> before it could be shingled. The rest of the project is going well. The A/C unit has been installed and most of the mechanical work nearly completed. There was vandalism at Groveland <br /> shelter over the weekend, two screens were slashed and one window was broken. <br /> <br />Indoor Playground Equipment at the Mounds View Community Center Report <br />The playground equipment has been put together. There just needs a few things tweaked and the foam covering can be installed. Cost is $1.00 for ages 1-9 years for 45-minute time block. <br /> Residents can rent this space as part of birthday party rental at MVCC. <br /> <br />Skating Rink Update <br />Weather permitting; the City is planning on opening the skating rinks the day after Christmas.
