Staff met with Hanke to discuss construction, maintenance, location, etc. <br />Hanke is proposing to build a 100' by 40' dirt track with a corrugated tube edge located north of <br />the existing parking lot at Irish Avenue Park. Hanke is asking for assistance from Public Works <br />with the initial groundwork. Public Works Director Scott Anderson estimates that the work would <br />take approximately 4 to 6 hours. It is anticipated that there would be some additional mowing at <br />the park, but no other changes in the park maintenance schedule. The majority of the track <br />construction and future maintenance would be handled by volunteers. Because of the simple <br />setup, the track could easily be moved or removed from the park. Staff recommends approval <br />of the proposal to build a remote controlled car track at Irish Avenue Park. <br />Please see the attached location maps. <br />7:35 pm Senior Programmina <br />Parks Planner Shayla Denaway will present an update on a few items regarding senior <br />programming and services.
