MOUNDS VIEW PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
MEETING MINUTES
Thursday, February 26, 1998
City Hall, 6:30 p.m.
CALL TO
ORDER: Chair Silvis called the meeting to order.
ROLL CALL: All Commission members were present including Chair Silvis,
Commissioners Dentz, Starr, Long, Stevenson, MacDonald, and Benz.
Also present was Councilmember Gunn and Director Saarion.
MINUTES: Motion was made by Commissioner Dentz and seconded by
Commissioner Stevenson to approve the minutes of January 22, 1998.
Motion passed unanimously.
MEMBER
INTRODUCTION: Chair Silvis introduced new Parks and Recreation Commissioner Mary
Benz.
UPDATES: Director Saarion informed the Commission that the City Council had
adopted a resolution as recommended by the Parks and Recreation Commission to
approve the Rice Creek North Regional Trail master plan. The resolution has been
signed and sent off to Ramsey County.
Director Saarion reported that the Mayors and Managers and School
Board of the District had meet to discuss athletic facilities. The joint
tournament complex idea was tabled because of cost and lack of available
land. Direction was given to go out and plan ways of altering, improving
and sharing athletic facilities to accommodate the needs of the district.
Parks and Recreation Directors and School District will be meeting every
month to create a plan including proposals for facility improvements,
continued needs assessment, scheduling strategies and partnerships with
youth athletic associations.
Community Center bids will be opened next week. The City Council has
requested the presence of Community Center Task Force members at the
Work Session, Monday, March 2. Bid information will be presented by
architects.
Director Saarion informed the Commission that the grant application for
the LCMR grant for purchase of wetland and mitigation of area of
Community Center property for parking, including storm water ponding for
runoff was handed in - word to be received in May whether grant is
accepted or not.
PROGRAM REPS: Commissioners were given program areas which they are to represent in
regards to citizen input, suggestions, ideas and ways for improvement. It is
hoped that Commissioners will provide that important link between
resident participant and staff. Commissioners were assigned areas of
programming which they are either affiliated already with or have skills and
interests in that particular area. See Assignments attached.
SUMMER
PLAYGROUNDS: Staff requested input from the Commission regarding the format of
Summer Playground programs. Safety Camp is being planned this year
after a summer without it. After discussion Commission provided direction
that Safety Camp should be held during the middle of Summer Playground
programs - as part of the programs so that there would not be a need for
additional fees, and in an effort to get as many youth to participate as
possible. Safety Camp was directed to be held the week of July 13 - 16
with Friday as a trips day. Commission wanted the Summer Playground
program to be a low fee as possible because it is a subsidized program
intended to benefit all youth in the summer regardless of economic status.
Commissioners also expressed concern about the high cost of youth trips
and requested staff to program less costly trips. Director Saarion
concurred that trips are expensive - the highest cost typically bus
transportation.
ADULT MEN'S
SOFTBALL RULES: Director Saarion discussed the home run rule and requested
Commissioners' thoughts on the options. The intention is to reduce the
amount of home runs hit over field fences. As softball equipment becomes
more technical, the ability for home runs increases. When the wind blows
the right direction at Silver View and City Hall Parks, balls hit high and
long have the tendency to drift out of the field. The idea is to make a
league rule that discourages home run hitting. After considering many
options for the home run rule, Commissioner Long made a motion,
seconded by Commissioner Starr to adopt the home run rule which
allows 2 hitters in Class C and I hitter in Class D to be designated home
run hitters - determined by the first players to hit home runs during a
given game. All other home runs are declared afoul ball - home run on
the fourth foul ball would be an out Motion passed unanimously.
ENTERTAINMENT
IN THE PARK: Director Saarion announced a new program - Entertainment in the Park -
which is possible because of donations by Medtronic and Irondale Hockey
Association. Four Sunday evenings of musical entertainment is planned
during the month of June at Lakeside Park.
SWIMMING: The Aquatics program is changing to a Ellis & Associates curriculum
which provides more flexibility in training and licensing lifeguards and
swimming instructors. In addition, the curriculum is more user friendly
rather than competitor skills (more similar to YMCA swimming lessons).
In addition, Ellis & Associates provides training assistance, lifeguard and
swimming staff evaluations and on-going training. The switch over to this
new aquatics program will begin this Summer. Lifeguards and Swimming
Instructors will be trained in the new technologies of lifesaving and new
curriculum of the Learn to Swim program this Spring.
PLAYLOT
REQUEST
PARK
IMPROVEMENTS:
Director Saarion reported that the Manager of Woodlawn Estates
Apartment complex visited her office and suggested that the empty lot on
Woodlawn Drive be groomed for a playlot for children of the apartments.
Staff checked into the status of the two lots and found that both were tax
forfeited properties. The size could accommodate a very small soccer field
and/or a small overlapping ball field. The lots require clean-up, mowing,
fill and seeding. The play space would be next to a street, but it was
suggested that bushes could be planted along the roadway to hinder
children from running into the street - or could be fenced. After discussion,
Commissioner Starr made a motion seconded by Commissioner Long to
recommend to the City Council declaration of these two parcels of tax
forfeited property as parkland - to be improved for a grassy playlot
Motion passed unanimously. Staff will provide further information to the
City Council regarding costs and labor for improvements and will present
this information at the April Work Session.
Hillview Park hockey boards are very old. Planks and hardware has been
replaced numerous times with a result being that the facility looks
unsightly. The court is paved for multiple use both as a hockey rink during
winter as well as rollerblade hockey rink and basketball court during
Spring, Summer and Fall. The function of the facility is very good - but
there is a need to replace the hockey boards. Approximate cost is $10,000.
Staff requested Commissioner's thoughts on this proposal.
In addition, Staff reminded Commissioners about the need for additional
netting at Greenfield Park baseball field to decrease the number of foul
balls landing on the parking lot, damaging cars and potentially hitting and
hurting people in the park. (Commissioners recalled the visit to the park
last summer when Councilmember Gunn's car was hit and dented with one
of 7 foul balls hit in a matter of minutes into the parking lot). Director
Saarion reported that she had requested participation of funding from the
Irondale Baseball League. There reply was that they did not have capital
funding and that the Board felt that it was the responsibility of the City to
provide adequate facilities in the parks to safeguard both players and
spectators. Commissioners discussed this issue. Motion was made by
Chair Silvis and seconded by Commissioner Long to recommend park
improvements to the City Council including new hockey boards at
Hillview and additional netting at Greenfield Park baseball field using
Park Dedication Funds, not to exceed $1$, 000 for the two projects.
Motion passed unanimously. Director Saarion will elicit project costs for
these two projects and request approval by City Council at the April Work
Session.
CONMSSION
GOALS: Because the lateness of the hour, this topic was tabled until next meeting.
Staff will provide Park Capital Replacement schedule for new Commission
members - to be distributed at the next meeting.
ADJOURNMENT: Motion was made by Chair Silvis and seconded by Commissioner Long
to adjourn the meeting. Motion passed unanimously.

subject: Policies for Athletic Camps and Clinics
date: March 16, 1998
It has come to my attention that there seems to be impropriety in the programming of sports
camps and clinics as planned by high school coaches. This came to my attention by way of Dave
Manka's program for volleyball. There are many problems that I see with this program and I have
described them in the letter that I recently prepared and sent to Dave Manka, attached. I would
like the Commission to discuss the policies that I have prepared regarding the Parks and
Recreation Department's goals and mission in the sponsorship of recreational sports and athletic
camps and clinics for youth of the community.

New Brighton, MN 55112
Dear Dave:
Phone: (612) 784-3055
Fax: (612) 784-3462
I wish to recap our telephone conversation of yesterday afternoon regarding your volleyball clinic.
It is my responsibility to ensure that programming and staffing procedures are followed in the
implementation of city sponsored activities. I did not have the opportunity to review your
program format. Since your program description was not included in the Spring City Newsletter
Recreation Activities Brochure, and because staff did not inform me of the program,I was
unaware of the program. I only became aware of the program upon inquiry by a Parks and
Recreation Commissioner. It was at this time that I looked into the situation and discovered that
the program was lacking major elements of programming detail. There are many problems with
this programformat. The first missing link pertains to staffing/employment. City employs
recreation leaders whether they are coaches, umpires, instructors, coaches, etc. to lead city
sponsored recreation programs. There was no work agreement for staffing of this program.
Work agreements are determined as a budget process. Minimum number of participants, hourly
wages, operating supplies are all elements of the program budget. This program had no budget
established. There was not a minimum number of participants established, hourly staff fees, and
other details which all combine to establish an appropriate youth fee for the program. Programs
sponsored by the City are publicized by the city to ensure that information is correct and to ensure
high integrity of the Department. In addition, the mission of the Parks and Recreation
Department is to provide leisure recreational programs for all persons of the community
regardless of race, creed, skills, abilities and economic status. Youth programs in particular are
designed for a low fee as possible to provide opportunity for the greater. numbers of participants.
Fees should reflect benefit to the participant with payback in goods and services.
While the purpose of programs and activities for coaches is often times to provide additional
training and skill development for players, and especially for those with higher skills, this is not
the primary focus of city recreation programming. Rather than selective recruiting of certain
players through specific phone calls and direct mailing lists, it is the practice of the Mounds View
Parks and Recreation Department to offer programs to all people through publication in the City
Newsletter and flyers to the schools.

It is also a philosophical problem for the City of Mounds View to employee a recreational
instructor that has the potential of receiving $25 x 50 participants or a total of $1,250 for a total 6
hour session which comes to $208.34 / hour wage which far exceeds the hourly wages of the'City
Administrator. Even if there were additional instructors to total 4 instructors, the hourly wage
per instructor would be $52.00! This fee schedule is not a benefit to the participant but instead a
benefit to the coach and it would be unprofessional of me to allow this to happen. An hourly
wage of $20 / hour is sufficient for an instructor who has a motivation of building the skills of a
competive volleyball team high feed program. Additional revenues received through registration
fees should go directly back to the participants either in the way of t -shirts, participant volleyballs,
additional instructors for a better participant/mstructor ratio, etc. Another option is to lower the
cost of the program and establish a higher minimum number which will provide greater
opportunity for youth to participate.
It is for these reasons that I believe there is a need to plan program budgets, program details and
publicity and match philosophies or purposes of programs before the activity is advertised. I
apologize that a Mounds View Parks and Recreation staff member neglected to adhere to this
basic programming procedure.
Because I feel very uncomfortable with the program as it is publicized, and because the City of
Mounds View is really providing no service nor participation in this program, and since we have
different goals and motivations, it was agreed on the telephone that you really do not need the
City of Mounds View in order to proceed with this program. As a result, because your flyers are
already out, I agreed to accept registrations but the checks will be made out to Dave Manka.
Registrations will not be deposited in City funds but will instead be handed to you when you come
to pick them up.
Programming for the City of Mounds View Parks and Recreation Department must follow a
standard programming procedure. The Department is more than willing to coordinate volleyball
programs following appropriate programming principals. If you are uncomfortable with the
procedures that we administer, you are encouraged to sponsor and administer your volleyball
skills programs independently, which may be more advantageous in achieving your goals.
Sincerely,
Mary ekarion, Director

POLICIES GUIDELINES FOR YOUTH RECREATION PROGRAMS
March 26, 1998
* Youth programs are designed to be as low cost as possible so cost does not provide a
barrier for participation.
* Program fees should reflect the actual cost of the program, with a cost even basis,
with additional revenues/profits of programs going back into the program,
benefitting the youth participating. Thus youth programs is not intended to make
money, but simply to cover costs.
* Coaches/ instructors are to be paid an hourly wage which is figured in cost of the
program and reflects a portion of the program fee.
* Youth programs sponsored by the Parks and Recreation Department are to be open
and publicized for the entire community and is not to be a confused with a
recruitment type program which is targeted only to specific persons.
* All participants are to receive equal time, consideration, encouragement,
opportunity and instruction regardless of skills and abilities.
* The mission of the Department in regards to youth programs is to provide
opportunity for all community youth to expand their leisure recreational
experiences, develop skills and abilities, make new friends, and enhance physical
fitness through participation in leisure recreational activities regardless of sex, skills
and abilities, and economic status.
* The Goal for this mission is to provide as many leisure recreation programs as
possible for community youth to participate in and gain benefit.
* Objectives for this goal is to recruit coaches and instructors who have the leadership
abilities to offer youth encouragement, skill development, uplift their self esteem,
provide good role model and make the activities enjoyable and fun.
* Youth recreation instructors/coaches/leaders are hired because they possess a strong
desire to benefit youth of the community and not because of interest in personal
monetary gain nor other personal goals including athletic prowess.
* It is the expectation that as youth participate in leisure recreational activities, skill
development will increase, friendships will development, physical fitness will be
enhanced, youth will be learn participation values, will increase their self esteem,
and build their experience in leadership roles.

Dear Dean:
Phone: (612) 717-4000
Fax: (612) 784-3462
Jennifer Olson, Recreation Program Supervisor for the City of Mounds View attended an athletic
round table workshop at the new Maple Grove Community Center this morning. During a tour of
the facility it was noted that there was a big design blunder in the gymnasium. The gym is
designed as a full basketball court going length -wise or two volleyball courts going width -wise
making for a multi-purpose facility, similar to the design of Mounds View Community Center
gymnasium. The problem that Maple Grove had is that the basketball goals were not retractable
and they were placed in such a way that they were in the play space of the volleyball courts. This
obstacle interferes with volleyball play. Therefore it is important that the basketball goals are
retractable so that they do not interfere with the volleyball courts play space The retractable
goals must be retractable going away from the volleyball courts rather than towards the volleyball
courts, because even when the goals are retracted, they can still be within the volleyball play space
(volleyball requires high space for resumed play). If you have any question regarding play spaces
required for either basketball or volleyball or the placement of retractable basketball goals and the
volleyball court equipment please let me know. It is intended that volleyball equipment for the
Community Center will be standards that fit into a sleeve in the gym floor. I have enclosed an
example of the kind of volleyball standard equipment that we hope to use in the new Community
Center gymnasium. If you have any questions about the retractable basketball goals or the
volleyball equipment please give me a call.
Again, please note this in all your coordination with the construction managers. If you have any
questions please feel free to call me at 717-4041. Thank -you.

ESTATES Final Plat as requested by Silverview Estates Inc.;
Planning Case No. 501-97
Date of Report: March 6, 1998
Background:
The preliminary plat for Silverview Estates was approved by the City Council on December 8,
1997 in Resolution No. 5183. This resolution has been attached for your reference. The
proposed uses for the site include a Holiday station store, an 82 -unit senior residential facility and
two office buildings.
a
At its November 19, 1997 meeting, the Planning Commission voted (7-0) to adopt Resolution
No. 526-97 recommending approval of the preliminary plat.
Final Plat Discussion:
The final plat for Silverview Estates contemplates the replatting of 8 lots containing
approximately 13 acres of land into 4 lots within the Planned Unit Development. Proposed lot
areas are as follows:
• Lot I (Holiday Stationstore):
69,862 sq. ft. (1.6 acres)
Lot 2 (2 -Story Office Bldg.):
92,454 sq. ft. (2.12 acres)
• Lot 3 (I -Story Office Bldg.):
48,000 sq. ft. (1.1 acres)
• Lot 4 (Senior Housing Bldg.):'
354,140 sq. ft. (8.13 acres)
The project site is bordered by Highway 10 to north and east, Silver Lake Road to the west, and
the St. Paul Waterworks right of way to the south To the south end of the property, there lies a
4.5 acre wetland which will not be encroached upon as a result of this development.
Analysis:
Ccording to Section 1202.01, Subdivision I of the City Code, full platting is required for all
major subdivision requests. The applicant, Silverview Estates, Inc., is requesting approval of the
Planning Case No. 501-97
Silver Estates Final Plat

final plat for the proposed Silverview Estates. Review of this plat is required by the City
Engineer, the Director of Public Works, the City Attorney, Rice Creek Watershed District, and
Ramsey County. The plat, dated 312198, bears the required data for final plats as specified in the
City Code.
As with any subdivision of land within Mounds View, two issues need to be addressed. The first
is easements. The plat shows easements for the wetland area, those areas to be used as NURP
ponds, and other drainage and utility easements. These easements will be dedicated to the City by
virtue of their inclusion on the plat. Other easements, such as the gateway signage and Iandscape
design easement and the cross access parking and driveway easement will need to be dedicated
via a separate document. The City Attorney has drafted and will have available for the Council's
review the gateway signage and Iandscape design easement.

- Ae OthA ., it-)XUe aLLU esseu With uie P'LaUirig of lana is the park dedication requirement. According
to Section 1204.42 of the City Code, all subdividers of land are required to dedicate to the City
for public purposes a portion of land, or,, at the City's sole discretion, an equivalent amount in
cash based upon the value of the Iand. It has been and continues to be the City policy of requiring
a cash dedication in lieu of land. According to an appraisal report dated October 31, 1997, the
land value for this project area is $684,000 and thus the dedication amount applicable for this
project would be 568,4000. This amount will need to be paid to the City prior to the City
Administrator and the Mayor signing off on the Final PIat.
w' The Ramsey County surveyors office will need to review and approve
the final plat, and has been working with the applicant to bring the plat into county conformance.
While the County has not yet given its final approval or authorization for Mylar copies to be made
of the plat, it is expected that this will occur in the near future. To staffs knowledge, only one
technical issue is left to be resolved which should not impact the development plan: ownership of
Silver Lake Road. Staff has requested that the developer submit title information so that the City
Attorney may perform a "plat opinion." This should be completed by the meeting on March 9th.
Qiiy Engineer: The City Engineer had not reviewed the final plat at the time this report was
written, but fully expects to do so prior to the meeting. Staff will present the City Engineer's
findings verbally to the Council during meeting. Staff has verified that the legal descriptions used
for the gateway signage and landscape design easement documents are accurate and the City
Attorney will -have prepared a draft easement document dedicating these areas to the City.
Director ofPubliCWorU- Mike Ulrich, Director of Public Works, has reviewed the final plat
and finds that it conforms to the preliminary plat and to the City's platting requirements.

Dear Dave:
Phone: (612) 784-3055
Fax: (612) 784-3462
I wish to recap our telephone conversation of yesterday afternoon regarding your volleyball clinic.
It is my responsibility to ensure that programming and staffing procedures are followed in the
implementation of city sponsored activities. I did not have the opportunity to review your
program format. Since your program description was not included in the Spring City Newsletter
Recreation Activities Brochure, and because staff did not inform me of the program,I was
unaware of the program. I only became aware of the program upon inquiry by a Parks and
Recreation Commissioner. It was at this time that I looked into the situation and discovered that
the program was Iacking major elements of programming detail. There are many problems with
this programformat. The first missing link pertains to staffing/employment. City employs
recreation leaders whether they are coaches, umpires, instructors, coaches, etc. to lead city
sponsored recreation programs. There was no work agreement for staffing of this program.
Work agreements are determined as a budget process. Minimum number of participants, hourly
wages, operating supplies are all elements of the program budget. This program had no budget
established. There was not a minimum number of participants established, hourly staff fees, and
other details which all combine to establish an appropriate youth fee for the program. Programs
sponsored by the City are publicized by the city to ensure that information is correct and to ensure
high integrity of the Department. In addition, the mission of the Parks and Recreation
Department is to provide leisure recreational programs for all persons of the community
regardless of race, creed, skills, abilities and economic status. Youth programs in particular are
designed for a low fee as possible to provide opportunity for the greater numbers of participants.
Fees should reflect benefit to the participant with payback in goods and services.
While the purpose of programs and activities for coaches is often times to provide additional
training and skill development for players, and especially for those with higher skills, this is not
the primary focus of city recreation programrrung. Rather than selective recruiting of certain
players through specific phone calls and direct mailing lists, it is the practice of the Mounds View
Parks and Recreation Department to offer programs to all people through publication in the City
Newsletter and flyers to the schools.

SOY INK
Equal Opprotunity Employer 100' "° °'D"
It is also a philosophical problem for the City of Mounds View to employee a recreational
instructor that has the potential of receiving $25 x 50 participants or a total of $ 1,250 for a total 6
hour session which comes to $208.34 / hour wage which far exceeds the hourly wages of the iCity
Administrator. Even if there were additional instructors to total 4 instructors, the hourly wage
per instructor would be $52.001 This fee schedule is not a benefit to the participant but instead a
benefit to the coach and it would be unprofessional of me to allow this to happen. An hourly
wage of $20 / hour is sufficient for an instructor who has a motivation of building the skills of a
competive volleyball team high feed program. Additional revenues received through registration
fees should go directly back to the participants either in the way of t -shirts, participant volleyballs,
additional instructors for a better participant/instructor ratio, etc. Another option is to lower the
cost of the program and establish a higher minimum number which will provide greater
opportunity for youth to participate.
It is for these reasons that I believe there is a need to plan program budgets, program details and
publicity and match philosophies or purposes of programs before the activity is advertised. I
apologize that a Mounds View Parks and Recreation staff member neglected to adhere to this
basic programming procedure.
Because I feel very uncomfortable with the program as it is publicized, and because the City of
Mounds View is really providing no service nor participation in this program, and since we have
different goals and motivations, it was agreed on the telephone that you really do not need the
City of Mounds View in order to proceed with this program. As a result, because your flyers are
already out, I agreed to accept registrations but the checks will be made out to Dave Manka.
Registrations will not be deposited in City funds but will instead be handed to you when you come
to pick them up.
Programming for the City of Mounds View Parks and Recreation Department must follow a
standard programming procedure. The Department is more than willing to coordinate volleyball
programs following appropriate programming principals. If you are uncomfortable with the
I rocedures that we administer, you are encouraged to sponsor and administer your volleyball
skills programs independently, which may be more advantageous in achieving your goals.
Sincerely,
Mary aarion, Director

Dear Parks and Recreation Commissioners:
There are a few additions to the April agenda, and therefore I have enclosed a new agenda. The
Community Development Department has requested the Parks and Recreation Department to
review a few plans and provide input to the Planning Commission. The plans for the Theater
project is available, but is too big to send, so I will have it at the meeting for all to review. The
other plan is a single lot division, which, with the new Park Dedication Ordinance revision
requires a larger dedication that previous years. Planner Ericson has requested Commissioners to
review this plan.
Otherwise, the issue that I wish to discuss with the Commission is the problems of high fees for
youth athletic programs whenever school coaches are involved. I have a problem with this and
would like to discuss the philosophical viewpoint and see if you have any problems with it. I
think that with a firm stand, coaches will see a benefit to their programs if affiliated with the Parks
and Recreation Department, even though they may not make the huge amount of money that they
currently are gaining through youth camps and clinics. Coaches have an unfair influence with
youth athletes that is somewhat of a "forced participation' if youth wish to participate in varsity
athletics in the future. I would not be against this if the fees were reasonable and the goal is only
increased youth skill development without the element of incredible monetary gain for the
coaches.
Anyway, this can be discussed later - it affects your children and your neighbors children, so I will
do as you guide me. I just want you to be aware of the inequities that I see going on.
If you are unable to attend the meeting please call me at 717-4041. See you soon. Remember to
bring your March packet, I will not re -copy information.
