Call to Order Jim Taylor called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m. Present: Roger Clarke, Rachel Berger, Dave Strub, Jim Taylor, Noel Schmidt Absent: Derek Larsen Staff Present: Scott Anderson, Public Works Director Shayla Syverson, Economic Development/Parks Intern I. Approval of Minutes of December 9, 2009 The minutes were corrected to note the absence of Derek Larsen. Strub made a motion, Berger seconded to approve the minutes of the December 9, 2009 Parks Commission meeting. All Ayes. Motion Carried. II. Update on Hanifl Fields Shelter Design by Landform Kendra Lindahl, Teresa Forsberg and Angie K. from Landform presented the design development documents of the Hanifl Shelter. Forsberg reviewed the changes that have been made to the design as recommended by the City Council in July. These included things such as using stained concrete floors, reducing the paved area around the building, and using architectural shingles. Using a geothermal system was explored but posed a large additional cost and would not be "greener" or have a payback over the life of the building due to the shelter's planned use. The current estimated cost of the shelter is on budget with previous estimates.. Some materials were presented by Forsberg that had been selected by the Sub - Committee: cedar planks, fiber cement siding, and aluminum & glass entrance doors. The planned schedule is to have bids out in March, award bids in April and break ground in mid-May. III. Discussion on Earth Day Roger Clarke discussed having a clean-up day to celebrate Earth Day in Hugo. Possible clean-up projects include Hardwood Creek Trail, Clearwater Creek Preserve, and planting trees in the parks. Scott Anderson will look at possible locations for planting trees and make recommendations. With the City's Spring Clean-up (hazardous material drop off day with Washington County) on April 24, the proposed day for an Earth Day clean-up is April 17 or 18. IV. Discussion on White Bear Lake Community Services and Recreation Advisory Council Roger Clarke volunteered to attend the Advisory Council meetings, representing the Hugo Parks Commission. Jim Taylor volunteered to attend if Clarke was unable. V. Continued Discussion on 2010 Park Goals VI. Update on Meeting with Hugo Lions Club Jim Taylor gave an update to the Commission about his recent meeting with the Hugo Lions. Scott Anderson also attended the meeting. The Hugo Lions share the interest of the Parks Commission in doing something for teenagers. Options discussed included fixing the tennis courts to build basketball courts and creating a skate park. Noel Schmidt shared that in polling about 80 middle school youth from Hugo, he found that there was a large interest in a skate park, and secondarily in basketball. Other options brought up by the youth included a sand volley -ball court and other equipment. Roger Clarke also recommended Frisbee Golf as an optional interim use. Clarke worked on the Podvin Skate Park and has surveyed other cities on their skate parks. The Commission discussed the potential disturbance to the residents around Lions Park and fundraising to offset the cost. Jim Taylor, Dave Strub and Scott Anderson will meet with the Lions to continue discussion. The Parks Commission agreed to invite the kids [that showed an interest in a skate park at other meetings] and the neighbors of Lions Park to the March meeting to discuss a skate park. Changes were made to the 2010 Park Goals to emphasize saving for future park development and creating an interim use at Lions Park for teenagers. Roger Clarke made a motion, Noel Schmidt seconded, to approve the 2010 Park Goals with the discussed changes. All Ayes. Motion carried. VII.
