Parks Commission Meeting Minutes October 11, 1999 Page 4 1 Jindra commented that one set of bleachers was currently in place. Roadfeldt was concerned 2 about the installation of a second set of bleachers that would be too close to the walking path and 3 the possibility of someone running into the corner of the bleachers. 4 Jindra reminded the Commission that decisions needed to be made about the positioning of a 5 warming house. Jindra asked Mr. Hartman about ideas for the shelters. Mr. Hartman said he is 6 considering options, but that the Commission would have to decide if hockey and figure skating 7 would be offered. 8 Jindra clarified that, this year, there would not be any skating offered because the park is still un- g der construction and the turf is not established. Mr. Hartman mentioned that a sign was installed 10 to request residents to respect that the park is not fully open for use, but that the walking trails are 11 available. 12 Jensen suggested that Central Park would be ideal for offering hockey because lights are installed 13 and only boards would be needed. He felt there was a demand for a hockey rink. Jindra stated 14 this would be an excellent discussion for a future meeting. 15 Roadfeldt asked if the walking path would be cleared during the winter. Mr. Hartman stated the 16 paths would be maintained during the winter. 17 VI.
