Jindra stated that she would continue to 14 rely on Mr. Hubmer to follow up on the issues and Mr. Hubmer agreed to do so. 15 In continuation of the letter of April 10, 2000, Mr. Hubmer reviewed the restroom and warming 16 house facility issues. In this respect, Mr. Hubmer presented a depiction of the proposed fields for 17 Silver Point Park (which included softball, soccer, and a hockey rink). Such depiction also in - 18 cluded detailed spots for lighting and parking spaces. Specifically, Mr. Hubmer asked the 19 Commission several questions in order to determine the type of warming house and restroom 20 facility desired. One question was the concept of a concession stand. Although the Commission 21 declined the option of a concession stand, it was determined that most residents would prefer 22 single -use, separate men's and women's restrooms. 23 Mr. Hubmer also presented an idea of building the warming house into the side of a hill, and set - 24 ting up a theme of colors, structure, and configuration that would be contiguous throughout the 25 City's parks. Various ideas were then discussed regarding the potential materials to be used for 26 the building, including the roof, to assist in alleviating the potential for vandalism. 27 Bob Kost, BRW, Inc. was in attendance and offered to work on some concepts for the Commis - 28 sion and present those ideas at the next Parks Commission meeting on May 8, 2000. 29 Sports Boosters Representative Zurbey mentioned the possibility of building a warming house 30 that the walls could be removed in the summer and the warming house could then be used as a 31 pavilion. The Commission agreed this was an excellent concept and Mr. Kost agreed to provide 32 some sketches and details about that option. Additionally, Mr. Kost stated that there are many 33 options of sloping the roof and using different types of materials for roofing that would 34 discourage climbing on the roof and/or vandalism. 35 Zurbey mentioned the idea of a storage room located in the warming house facility. Mr. Kost 36 cautioned the Commission against this concept due to the potential for theft.
