Presentation from Skate Park Desian Grou Shayla Syverson, Parks Planner informed that a skate board design group was assigned to work with the American Ramp Company. A webinar was held on May 20, 2010 and a concept plan for the equipment was put together with the American Ramp Company. Hugo youth were present to discuss the plan. On May 17, 2010 the City Council directed the Parks Commission to continue to get specifics on additional skate parks and work with the Lions Club on the concept for the Lions Park. In a recent meeting with the Lions Club, the Lions expressed concern that placing skate park equipment inside the existing tennis court space would not leave enough space for Good Neighbor Days. Pete Pederson, from the Lions Club discussed building the skate park on the west end of the existing tennis courts. The Lions Club is willing to donate up to $10,000 to help with costs involved with the fence extension, building a new base for the concrete slab and the additional asphalt overlay/stripping to have this change implemented. Berger made a motion, Larsen seconded to approve the revised budget and concept plan with the changes requested by the Lions Club and recommend approval of the grant by the City Council.
