Parks and Recreation Commission
March 24, 1999, 6:30 pm
Minutes
Commissioners present: Frank Silvis, Sherry Gunn, Gary Stevenson, and Rob Marty
(Council liason).
Commissioners absent: Stan McDonald, Pam Starr, Dave Long, and Mary Benz.
Guest present: John-Hammerschmidt(Bridges Golf Course General Manager)
Staff present: Terri Blattenbauer (YMCA)
Meeting called to order at 6:35 pm.
Sherry shared an opening thought about a commercial and opening a box of crayons. The
meaning is that we are all special. She also shared an editorial written by a parent.
A motion was made to approve the minutes from February by Sherry with a second to the
motion by Gary.
• John Hammershcmidt, General Manager of Bridges Golf Course was invited to talk about
plans for the golf course. A few of the topics included, the possibility of placing
billboards on 118 to help with debt, moving the compost from Arden Park to the golf
course, the wetlands study, and time for questions by the Commissioners.
Terri updated the commission on some items from the February meeting. Steve Dazenski
is securing a cost estimate for path lighting for sand volleyball and softball at City Hall.
The subject of paving the trails at Silverview will be an agenda item for the April 5
council work session in regards to notifying the affected residents. The commission had
suggested the move of Woodcrest playground equipment to Random Park. It was
recommended by Public Works to move the equipment elsewhere due to several reasons,
including, color scheme, space, as well as others. The commission would like to continue
pursuing the move to Random Park. The equipment may be difficult to move from the
footings, however, P.W. Department will attempt to salvage what they can. Discussion
moved to adding a trail system along Silver Lake Road to Count Road I, also, along
Highway 10. A bridge over Highway 10 was also discussed, as well as adding a culvert
at Silverview. These items could potentially be apart of the Park dedication plan.
Discussion and update on these items will be continued at the April meeting.
Terri gave an update of programming at the Community Center and the Parks and
Recreation programs for Spring (Exhibit A-1 attached). Spring programs begin the week
of March 29. A Marketing Plan is being developed for MVCC and P & R Department, a
• refrigerator is being donated by Steve's Appliance. It will be a used one, and we will be
checking with them periodically on the status of any trade-in. The approved amenities
• have been ordered and should be complete in 6-8 weeks. Coke was approached to
sponsor the scoreboard and declined. Terri will continue to explore the rationale to
purchase a Border Patrol for the MVCC parking lot. The Minnesota Sports Federation
will be sponsoring a weekend long Masters Volleyball tournament at the community
center April 17-18. Lastly, an after hours part time cleaner has been hired to clean the
facility M-F. A weekend cleaner is still being sought.
An update item for next meeting, Terri will speak with Rick Wriskey on a timeline for
landscaping.
Motion to adjourn from Gary with a second from Sherry. Meeting adjourned 8:10 pm.
Next meeting: WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28, 1999

MVCC Program Executive
RE: Meeting agenda item
It is with great enthusiasm that I inform you of an upcoming Parks and Recreation
meeting agenda item. We are currently discussing the paving of the remainder of the
path that surrounds Silverview pond. If you would like to be apart of that discussion, you
can attend the meeting scheduled for Wednesday, May 26, 6:30 p.m. at the Mounds
View City Hall. We will be taking the first portion of the meeting for this item. If you
have questions, I can be reached at(612)717-4042.

FROM: Terri Blattenbauer
Program Executive
The following is an update on items discussed at past Commission meetings. This is in
lieu of our April Meeting.
• Landscape timeline: The 2, 'V2 court basketball courts will be in by the first part of
June. The irrigation system will be worked on once that is complete. Rick has been
planting trees where he can at this point and will be working with the school to have
the kids help on the North side planting in May.
• NYSCA Certification: We have explored the certification, and received the
information. The MVCC Program Director, Shannon Roepke, will test to become a
trainer. This will be implemented for our youth coaches.
• VB court lighting at City Hall: The cost of lighting is $7,390. We will continue
discussion on this at our May meeting.
• • Gym Amenities: The amenties are completely ordered. The Vendor had difficulty
with fitting all 6 baskets on wall-mounts. The final product will be 4 main, ceiling
f, mounted baskets (on the 2 side-by-side courts) and 1 wall mounted practice basket on
the east wall. I will explain more of this at our meeting. All baskets, lockers, wall
(j\ 4‘
padding, and divider curtain should be in around June 1.
• Refrigerator donation: I am waiting for Steve's appliance to a acquire a used unit.
They are willing to donate used. I have been calling about once every 2 weeks to
check the status.
• Silverview trail paving: The Council has approved a hearing. The item will be on the
regular agenda for May. I will be sending a letter to affected residents to invite them
for discussion on this matter. I may be asking some of you for assistance in
identifying those homes.
13/• 4 Safety bases for softball: These are in place for the leagues starting the week of
April26.
—\",
• Final numbers for Spring programs: These are updated figures from our last
meeting. (Attached)
1111
• Changing space options: I have explored the option of converting a storage area
• located in the lobby/vending area to 3 unisex, ADA accessible changing areas. We
could pursue this as a permanent or temporary option. I have a price estimate on
both options. P = solid plastic, to match restroom stalls $4,188. T= baked enamel
metal stalls $2,660. With the hopes that at some point there may be locker
rooms/showers, we can discuss what would be the best current solution.
• Border Patrol: My best source regarding usage and definite need is the local hockey
association. I have left 2 messages for the president and have received no response
back. I will continue to pursue them.
• Park Dedication plan: This will be our main topic of discussion for our May
meeting. We will need to begin securing a plan for implementation. The following
items have been discussed: Pathway along Silver Lake Road, Bridge over Highway
10, Path from Woodcrest to Cty. I, Placement of a culvert at Silverview. These are
items in addition to the paving of the trail system at Silverview. Please let me know
of other ideas you may have for this plan.
• Woodcrest playground equipment: I was informed that the City Council made the
decision to pursue moving the equipment to higher ground and keeping it at
Woodcrest. This would nullify our plan to salvage and move to Random. I will try to
get more detail for our May meeting.y(C)

I have enclosed the minutes from our March meeting. If you have questions, please don't
hesitate to call me at (612)717-4042.

Secondly, I need to know your desire to continue as a Commissioner at this point. I
believe 75%participation at the meetings is appropriate. If this will not work for you,
please let me know and I will work with the City to have your position on the
Commission replaced by applicants.
I appreciate your desire to help further the parks and programs in Mounds View,
however, I do understand personal schedules and how they may hinder participation at
monthly meetings.
I look forward to your response regarding this matter. Again, thank you for your efforts
in helping us build strong kids, strong families, strong communities.
