MOUNDIEW <br />PARKS& RECREATION <br />MEMORANDUM <br />To: Parks & Recreation & Forestry Commissioners <br />From- Andy Thomas — Parks & Recreation Superintendent <br />Date: January 23rd, 2025 <br />RE: Silver View Fields <br />Introduction: <br />Mounds View Irondale Lacrosse started renting field space from the City in 2024. They originally <br />rented Oakwood but were moved to Silver View 12U because of conditions at Oakwood. Public <br />Works painted a lacrosse field inside the soccer field and later in the summer expanded the field to <br />a bigger size. The U12 field has been used sporadically for soccer over the last couple of years and <br />was not rented at all in 2024 for soccer. <br />Discussion: <br />MVI Lacrosse is interested in renting the field again at Silver View from Apil 1St — July 30th. They are <br />also requesting a full 12U lacrosse field be painted which would be 120 x 60 yards. The size of that <br />field would require Public Works to remove the permanent soccer goals that are currently there. <br />Since we haven't had many soccer rentals at that field the last couple years do we transition that it <br />to a dedicated lacrosse field? Last year MVI lacrosse provided their own goals but we could <br />consider purchasing goals for other rentals as well. <br />BOYS' AND GIRLS' UNIFIED FIELD MARKINGS YOUTH ONLY <br />11 Page <br />
