rather $104,000 is remaining for Park Improvements. It is being considered to do the basketball <br />and the tennis courts initially. The tennis courts are estimated to cost $59, 072; basketball courts <br />are estimated at $67, 822. The shuffleboard came in at $14,900. However, with discussion of <br />moving the Senior Center down here to the Rec Center, it seems wise to hold off on the <br />shuffleboard courts until a decision is made. Unfortunately, the total of the tennis and basketball <br />courts is $126,894, and the remaining appropriation is only $104,000. Todd suggested that the <br />commission needs to either approach City Council for the difference, or simply choose to do one <br />or the other. The question was raised if the resurfacing of the old basketball courts can be done <br />in-house, in order to “buy” a few years out of them. In this way, it would be feasible to do the <br />tennis courts and relocate, and, possibly, improve the horseshoe pits. Todd stated he would speak <br />with the Service Director regarding the possibility of the Service Department resurfacing the <br />basketball courts. Also, it was mentioned that the Service Department will be doing asphalt work <br />on the cart paths for Springvale. Would the Service Department also be able to lend labor and <br />equipment to laying asphalt for the jogging path? Certainly, materials will need to be purchased, <br />but perhaps the work can be done in-house. Again, this will need to be discussed with the new <br />Service Director. However, Todd said to keep in mind that he is also asking for a new Zamboni <br />and a used dump truck already from Service. Hopefully, with the new Service Director there will <br />be an opportunity to create some unity between the Recreation Department and the Service <br />Department. <br /> <br />Michael reported on the status of pending ordinances on behalf of City Council: <br />? <br /> <br />The electrical ordinance was passed for the emergency repairs; it is a no bid, so they can begin <br />work as soon as the contract is in <br />? <br /> <br />The recreation brochure bid ordinance was passed <br />? <br /> <br />The fee schedule ordinance should pass at the next meeting (tomorrow); just need to update <br />with the new rates (20% increase) <br /> <br />At this time the commission was asked for volunteers to sit on the fee schedule sub-committee to <br />establish program fees. Volunteers were: Bill Kelley, Sandy Sorge, and Randi Jones (Duane <br />Limpert, Councilman also volunteered to sit on the committee). <br /> <br />REPORT BY SAFETY DIRECTOR <br />None. <br />SUB-COMMITTEE REPORT <br />None. <br />OLD BUSINESS <br />None. <br />NEW BUSINESS <br />None. <br />MOTION TO ADJOURN <br />A motion was made by Michael, with a second by Bill. All were in favor. <br />Meeting adjourned at 8:53pm. <br /> <br />Let it please be noted that some parts of the taped minutes were inaudible or very difficult to <br />comprehend. It was also difficult to distinguish certain voices at various times, therefore, <br />names associated with inquiries may be incorrect. I apologize, I did my best. <br />Page 5 <br /> <br />
