He stated they would like to see the shelter be kept open <br />at all times in the summer for a storm shelter. He stated most people did not like the picnic <br />shelter where it was located and they wanted it combined. They liked the idea of the hockey rink <br />and asked if it could be lighted. He stated they would like to see the parking expanded further. <br />He noted both McCalester and Emerald should have parking on one side only. He asked if the <br />old warming house could be renovated. He stated another concern was the play equipment and <br />they wanted play equipment for all kids and not just the younger children. He asked if they could <br />use recycled rubber instead of sand around the play equipment. He stated they could cut down on <br />some of the trees. He noted they have never had irrigation in the park before and asked if <br />irrigation was necessary. He noted irrigation could be kept for and landscaping and not in the <br />fields. He asked if they could get something to block the neighborhood from hockey pucks. He <br />stated they would like to see a basketball court also. He asked if the trees could be limited to the <br />southeast corner of the park. He indicated it would be nice to get the splash desk, but believed <br />most of the neighbors would be willing to forego that to cut down on the price. Ms. Garbarini <br />stated she believed it was the City's plan to go back and present this to the residents again for <br />further comments. She noted the intention for this was just to set a budget and then have another <br />meeting in the spring with the neighborhood. She indicated the only thing that might not happen <br />was the recycled rubber in the play area, which was very expensive. <br />V. OVERALL PARK SYSTEM DISCUSSION/COMMENTS. <br />None. <br />VII.
