Discussion Items
Bike Park Update
Markle updated the group, talking about a tour of a bike facility in Woodbury and interest from Three Rivers Park District about collaborating on
the project.
CIP Budget
Markle presented an inventory of park facilities that she assembled with input from managers from Recreation and Public Works, listing
infrastructure items that need attention at the various parks. Wendt asked if the Council will consider making the park project funding a
proportion of the profits rather than a set amount. Markle said that it’s an issue she has raised before and will continue to raise.
Action Items
Monroe and Sheridan Playground Project Quote
Markle showed the group the proposal submitted by Northland Recreation to replace the play equipment at Monroe and Sheridan Parks. The
group unanimously recommended Council approval of the quote submitted by Northland Recreation for replacement of the play equipment.
Veterans Park Boardwalk
Markle reviewed the history of the boardwalk and explained how it has leaked Styrofoam material from the floats, is not accessible to people
who use wheels or ADA-compliant, and is very unsafe and narrow. She recommended removing the existing boardwalk and presented
options: replace the boardwalk, build a bird-viewing dock area, or make the existing one ADA-accessible. Wendt asked if anybody in the group
was opposed to removing the existing boardwalk; the group agreed by consensus that the current one should be removed for safety reasons
and the condition of the floats. Wendt said that the group could further discuss what would replace it when the capital improvement plan is
reviewed.
