kids are at the park, but with the location at City Hall where the old playground was, parents wouldn't be able to watch their kids play while using the court. Julie Clark has experience with a couple of courts that get highly used. MVCC Staff thinks it provides a good opportunity to add an amenity to our parks and a way to get more residents outside being active in our parks, but there is concern about losing green space. We can pass it through, and let City Council decide what to do about it. The parks are for everyone and this opens up a new possibility for residents who are not into "sports" use at the park fields. Motion to recommend that the fitness court and workout space be considered for City Hall Park for $185K by Arel, 2nd Mills. Motion Passed 5-0. B. Capital CIP Commission Priorities Conversation — Peterson: Wait until May meeting after park tour to include new Commission members. C. Zip line was taken down 4-15-2025- Szurek: Letters were sent to neighbors to get feedback. It is scheduled to go back up May 15th. Could wait until after we meet in May to make a decision. Resident right behind the zip line at Hodges Park, says it has made a huge difference in the noise level and that kids are laughing and enjoying other elements at the playground. Resident 5219 Skiba Drive across the parking lot also says she can be outside on her phone with clients when she "works" from home. The older kids were using it differently. MVCC staff are trying to visit park buildings during rentals to observe the appropriate behavior and volume. Direct Staff to wait until after the May meeting to get feedback from the community —noise decrease appreciation and if there are any questions about missing the zip line, before we decide whether or not to reinstall.
