Silvis motioned to present this to council. <br />Kroeger asked what exactly? Should we recommend that a usage cost be implemented <br />too? ($3 non-resident, $1 resident) Hours of operation only when the Community Center <br />is open? Include infrastructure costs/needs ($21,720). What is left over would then be <br />used towards the purchase of the equipment. <br />Dazenski and Roepke both agreed that if the skate park is open after the Community <br />Center hours, it would cost approximately $21,000 extra to operate. <br />Rich Sonterre spoke to the commission. <br />Sonterre does not want to lose any programs or facilities and was wondering if the <br />commission would consider using any surplus of funds after the construction of the skate <br />park to put towards additional asphalt at another park for the stand-alone basketball <br />hoops that will be removed from the Community Center if the skate park is constructed. <br />Dazenski replied that it could be done. <br />Kroeger stated that an addendum to the proposal could be worded stating that there will <br />be additional asphalt laid at another park to relocate the basketball hoops removed from <br />the Community Center. <br />Sonterre also suggested that the excess or surplus could be put back into the park <br />dedication fund or put the money towards an inspector that will be inspecting all of the <br />parks and shelters. <br />Kroeger asked the commission for their opinion. <br />Silvis agreed with the asphalt placement for the basketball hoops. <br />Kroeger thought the proposal to the council could recognize that the City is losing a <br />basketball court and may want to address in the future the need to replace it. <br />Dazenski stated that Greenfield Park would be the best choice. <br />Kroeger added to the proposal that the City is losing two '/2 court basketball courts and <br />the commission will probably be pursuing replacing them elsewhere in Mounds View. <br />Sonterre stated to also dedicate any surplus at that time of the proposal to the council. <br />Kunz moved that any surplus funds after the infrastructure and equipment purchases of a <br />skate park be set aside for the relocating of the basketball hoops removed from the <br />Community Center to another park in Mounds View. (The park location will be <br />determined later.) <br />Kroeger 2nd the motion. <br />Discussion: <br />
