Parks and Environmental Commission Regular Meeting Minutes <br />September 8, 2025 <br />Page 9 <br />1 VIII.COMMUNITY FORUM. <br />2 <br />3 Mr. Scott Strigel, 2604 34th Avenue, is with the Boosters. He has spent 2-4 nights a week at <br />4 Silver Point Park. He is very supportive of the dog park and believes Silver Point Park would <br />5 be the best location. Removing Ballfield #2 would be detrimental to their ability to offer t-ball <br />6 within the City. They would need to move to a Saturday-only option. He would like the <br />7 Commission to research having a multi-use rink. Flooding is a concern for Field #2. Parking <br />8 and traffic are a problem. A dog park is a year-round amenity. <br />9 <br />10 Mr. Paul White, 32nd Avenue, was called the dog park guy. He had been surveying neighbors <br />11 regarding a dog park. In the surveys done, there was a very compelling interest. He’d be <br />12 happy to share the survey results. Folks who were interested in a dog park were driving to <br />13 another location, but they wanted something they could walk to. He always drives to <br />14 pickleball. He would hate to lose an ice rink, but if there were more consolidation among ice <br />15 rinks, there might be enough people for a game. <br />16 <br />17 IX.
