"Quite Simply the Best"
June 13 , 1995
Dear Parks and Recreation Commissioners:
This letter is to remind you of the June Parks and Recreation
Commission meeting which will be held Thursday, June 22 , 1995 at
6: 30 p.m. at City Hall. There is a very light agenda so I expect
that the meeting will be brief.
If you are unable to attend the meeting please call and let me
know. My office number is 784-0618 . Staff has been busy with
summer programs, budgeting, Festival, MVCT, Garden Club, Summer
Playgrounds and other activities. Parks workers have been mowing
constantly, while trying to sneak in projects - there is always
an endless list of projects in the parks.
• The Golf Course is looking pretty "spiffy" . The Grand Opening is
Sunday, June 25 from 11: 30 - 1: 30 p.m. "Anything Goes" , this
year' s MVCT production has held auditions and our own Dave Long
is related to one of the "stars" ! Festival Committee is full
steam ahead pulling together the last strings for the Festival -
which promises to be the biggest and best of them all !
Summer Playgrounds begin next Monday. Playground staff meets
Thursday and Friday, June 15 and 16 for training, planning and
organization.
We are in the middle of budgeting. It has been requested that
the 1996 first round budget have a freeze in spending and capital
expenses, which means no parks equipment or improvements except
for projects that can be funded with Park Dedication Funds.
I look forward to seeing you all at the meeting on June 22 .
Sincerely,
•

MEETING MINUTES
Thursday, March 23 , 1995
6: 30 p.m. , City Hall
CALL TO
ORDER: Chair Burmeister called the meeting to order.
ROLL CALL: Commissioners present included Burmeister, Dentz ,
Long, and Silvis. City Council Liaison Gary Quick
was also present as well as Director Saarion.
Visitors included Zack Hanson and Fawsy Awad,
representatives of the Department of Solid Waste,
Ramsey County.
APPROVAL OF
MINUTES : Commissioner Silvis made a motion, seconded by
Commissioner Dentz to approve the minutes of the
February 16, 1995. Motion was approved
unanimously.
• ARDAN PARK
IMPROVEMENTS: Zack Hanson and Fawsy Awad were invited to the
meeting to discuss ways that Ramsey County can
improve the aesthetics of compost facility.
Several options were suggested including a
landscape design for plantings to screen the
compost area, compost display areas for
educational purposes, landscaped entrance to the
park, vines on the fences, replacement of the
fence and other options. Zack Hanson said that he
would initiate a plan for the beautification of
the compost area of Ardan Park in order to be good
neighbors. In addition, the Commission asked
Zack' s opinion as to the benefit of purchasing the
two lots that abut the park. Zack indicated that
the extra land would benefit the compost facility
and park because it would allow additional space
and more border area from neighboring residences.
If the properties were to become available, Ramsey
County would look into the possible purchase.
MVAA REQUEST
FOR BLDG. : MVAA Representative Ernie Lepore was present to
discuss the request of MVAA for space to construct
a building to house MVAA equipment and uniforms.
• The City Attorney' s draft property lease agreement
was reviewed. The Commission had previously
discussed items which they wanted included in the
lease agreement. All concerns were included in
• the draft. Commissioner Silvis made a motion to
recommend to the City Council the approval for
MVAA to build a storage building on City Hall Park
land near the water tower. Motion was seconded by
Commissioner Long. Motion passed unanimously.
Staff will put the issue on the agenda for the
next Council work session.
BIKELANES: The Commission discussed Hillview Road as a
possible first recommendation for an on-street
bikelane. The parks and school are on the north
side which would seem like the most logical side
for bike lanes. However, parking would be
necessary on the south side. However, no parking
is currently enforced on the south side at the
request of residents. This puts a fly in the
ointment. The bikelane issue will be a difficult
one and the Commission decided to table the issues
for now.
ADJOURNMENT: Commissioner Silvis made a motion to adjourn the
meeting, seconded by Commissioner Dentz . Motion
passed unanimously.

MINUTES
Thursday, April 27 , 1995
6: 30 p.m.
City Hall
CALL TO
ORDER: Chair Burmeister called the meeting to order at
6 : 40 p.m.
- ROLL CALL: Members present included Chair Burmeister,
Commissioners Dentz, Starr, Silvis, Long and
Stevenson. Director Saarion was also present.
WOODCREST
PARK: Director Saarion informed the Commission of the
grant which has been submitted for Woodcrest Park
improvements - a priority goal of the Commission.
The grant would include moving the storm water
ditch, establishing a ponding area, constructing a
. small youth athletic field, paving the parking lot
and repairing the park building, and various
landscaping. Matching funds would include part
Park Improvement Funds and part Storm Water
Management Funds. Awards will be announced in
August of 1995.
PEDESTRIAN
BRIDGE
UPDATE: The City Council wishes to wait until the
Legislature finishes so that they can have a
better handle on TIF regulations before jumping
into the pedestrian bridge project.
SCOUT CAN
COLLECTION: Cub Scout Pack has decided to collect the cans
from City Hall and the Golf Course. The can
collection revenues will be used for those needing
funding for scout camps.
TRAILWAYS: After reviewing several options for bikelane
options, the Commission agreed that perhaps the
timing is not great for advocating bike lanes on
community streets. This issue will be on hold.
• MVAA BLDG. : The City Council has approved the recommendation
to allow MVAA to build a storage building on City
Hall property for MVAA equipment and uniform
storage. The building will be built sometime in
• August.
LAKESIDE
WATERSLIDE: This idea was discussed further as a facility to
generate revenues. A short video was shown
regarding the potential for waterslide-generated
revenues. Director Saarion shared information
received from a recent Aquatics Conference which
she attended. Waterslides and water facilities of
all kinds are a "hot" facility for generating
revenues, for perking up old aquatic facilities
and serving many ages. The Commission asked staff
to continue to pursue the project - to place the
project on the Capital Improvement Plan for '
future.
PARK PATROL: Director Saarion reported that 5 community
residents have been very active in patrolling the
neighborhood parks and Silver View Park in general
during evenings and weekends. They have been very
impressed with the courtesy of park users. They
will continue to volunteer their time and efforts
into ensuring that parks are being used correctly
and that users abide by park rules.
• GOLF COURSE
UPDATE: Director Saarion reported that the Golf Course
Practice Range opened April 18 . Seasonal staff
has been hired. Merchandise and food and
beverages and a few pieces of equipment are
expected yet to be purchased. Golf Course
Superintendent Mike Mueller is busy mowing and
fertilizing and overseeding and all the other
things necessary to ensure that the grass grows in
properly. We are hoping for warm weather - yet to
be experienced.
ADJOURNMENT: Meeting was adjourned.

CITY OF SPRING LAKE PARK
SUBJECT: REQUEST TO USE BALANCE OF LAKESIDE PARK BUDGET FOR
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
• The carry-forward amount from 1994 is $2,548.00.
The annual budget is $15,000; one-half from each city. Through August, $11,659
of the $15,000. has been spent.
We estimate an additional $1,741. will be spent this year for utilities, salaries,
garbage collection, etc. This will leave approximately $1,600. carry-forward.
Added to the beginning balance will total $4,148. A capital outlay list has been
prepared, a copy of it is attached.
We would like to purchase the items marked with and asterisk (*) amounting to
approximately $3,870.
•
• LIST OF CAPITAL NEEDS FOR LAKESIDE PARK
* 1. Need to replace bicycle rack. Approximate cost is $550 for a 18 capacity heavy duty bike
rack plus shipping.
* 2. Need new permanent decorative trash containers, approximately eight. Approximate cost is
$2,000 plus shipping.
3. Need to replace benches near playground area 2 - 4 benches need replacement.
Approximate cost is $280 each, plus shipping for 8 foot in-ground benches.
4. Need to replace rules and regulations sign near beach house. Approximate cost is $600.
5. Parking lot needs replacement. Slurry seal coat is necessary after patching and repairs,
followed by striping. Approximate cost is $8,000.

2=:E�� = Lakeside Park
The carry-forward amount from 1994 is $2,548.
The annual Budget is $15,000; one-half from each city.
Through August, $11,659 of the $15,000 has been spent.
I estimate an additional $1,741 will be spent this year for
utilities/salaries/garbage collection, etc. This will leave
approximately $1,600 carry-forward. Added to the beginning
balance will total $4, 148. A capital outlay list has been prepared,
a copy of it is attached. This 11 item list could total more than
$15,000 depending on what exactly is ordered and shipping costs. I •
suggest a Capital Improvement list be generated and submitted to the
City Councils. Capital Outlay is not part of the general budget so
these needed items need separate consideration.

• 5 - YEAR GOALS - 1996 - 2000
TRAIL DEVELOPMENT - The addition of a Pedestrian Bridge linking
north and south trails across Highway 10 in 1996 will be a great
addition to the trail system. Other improvements include on-
street striping and marking as well as other opportunities for
off-street trails especially to be considered at times when roads
are turned back as is the case with County Road H2 which is
scheduled for turn-back in 1996. Another opportunity is the
grant for finishing the Silver Lake Road off-street trail from
County Road H to Highway 10. This project, if awarded would be
slated for 1996. Trail development is an on-going project where
grants are available and partial funding hopeful. Therefore it
is recommended that the City continue to pursue grants for
expansion to the trail system.
WOODCREST PARK DEVELOPMENT - Woodcrest Park has been a very
difficult park to develop because of its high water table and
peat subsoils. However, rather than spend money on new parkland,
it has been indicated that community members would rather see
Woodcrest Park developed. Although Woodcrest Park has
limitations on development potential due to its characteristics,
some improvements can be made to expand the recreational use of
the park.
• PLAY EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT - Play equipment has a longevity of
approximately 15 years. There are play equipment in various
parks which are nearing replacement stages. Random Park and
Groveland Park play equipment structures are the first to require
replacement.
PARK BUILDING IMPROVEMENTS - Hillview and Groveland Park
buildings have been improved for .greater use and accessability.
Lambert Park building improvements would include the installation
of a unisex restroom. It has been experienced that the park
building have greater community use and offers a more diverse use
when indoor utility facilities are available.
UPGRADING ATHLETIC FIELD FENCING FOR SAFETY - The City athletic
field fencing needs to be heightened to comply with current
standards in height for player safety. The new standards are
10 ' . At least four fields require heightened fences including
City Hall, Greenfield and both Silver View fields.
CITY TREE TRIMMING PROGRAM - The City' s tree trimming program for
streets and boulevards took a back seat many years ago during
budgeting sessions. Streets are in a condition where branches
are hanging over and trucks and maintenance vehicles are rubbing
over the branches. An additional allotment of one summer
• seasonal employee for Forestry services would suffice for the
trimming of streets and boulevards.
INTERACTIVE SYSTEM - This is a communication system where the
• public can call for information on Cable TV. It is a way to
transfer information through Cable TV, computers and tele-
communications. Communication capabilities will continue to
expand, and it is hoped that Mounds View will be able to be a
part of such a sysem with the acquisition of interactive system
equipment.
GOLF COURSE OPERATIONS - 1995 will be a first 1/2 season of golf
course operations. It is anticipated that several capital needs
will be identified after a year or more of operations. In
addition, items that were cut from the original golf course
construction plans will be considered including range lighting,
landscape tree stands, rain shelters, paved cart paths, etc.

5 - YEAR PROJECTION FOR PERSONNEL NEEDS
1996
PARKS MAINTENANCE WORKER: PARKS MAINTENANCE PROGRAM - 1996
An additional Parks Maintenance Worker is requested for parks
maintenance services. Increased use of parks and increasingly
high expectations for park maintenance requires additional hours
of labor. This position would be funded through the general
fund. At level I the position and benefits would be
approximately $38, 000.
ADDITIONAL HOURS TO THE JOINT POWERS FORESTRY CONTRACT FOR
FORESTRY ACTIVITY AT THE BRIDGES GOLF COURSE: GOLF COURSE
PROGRAM - 1996
Additional tree planting is necessary for the golf course.
• Buffer tree planting along Highway 118 to avert stray golf balls
and tree planting for aesthetics along Fairways # 1 & 2 screening
the trucking firms is in the plans of the golf course. With
additional hours added on to the Joint Powers Forestry Contract,
tree planting could be done in-house. In addition, landscaping
plans and planting, tree trimming and disease control could be
extended forestry services provided at the golf course. It is
expected that the revenues of the golf course would fund this
extra time. Add 100 days of labor at approximately $7. 00 per
hour or $5, 600 plus benefits totaling approximately $6, 000 .
ADDITIONAL FORESTRY WORKER TIME TO THE JOINT POWERS CONTRACT:
REFORESTATION & DISEASE CONTROL - 1997
There are many projects that would benefit from additional
Forestry work including landscaping along the noise barrier at
Long Lake Road and Hwy 118 , the Highway 10 Corridor landscaping
project, City street and boulevard trimming (which is way behind
in trimming due to lack of time and lack of money for contracting
the work) . Grants are readily available, but lack of time
restricts projects. Contracted tree services for trim work
should be budgeted at approximately $2 , 000 each year or the
additional of a seasonal forestry employee at approximately $7 . 00
• per hour for 100 days or $5, 600 plus benefits totaling
approximately $6, 000. Either option would be funded with general
funds.
