Capital Improvement Plan <br />City of Arden Hills, Minnesota. <br />2012 thru 2016 <br />Project # 12 -park -005 <br />Project Name Hazelnut Irrigation <br />Type Improvement <br />Useful Life <br />Category Park Capital Improvements <br />Description <br />Department Parks Department <br />Contact Park & Recreation Mgr <br />Priority n/a <br />Total Project Cost: $26,000 <br />Hazelnut Park has a soccer field and a ball field. In the past. improvements to the soccer field have not been done because the property <br />belonged to Trinity Lutheran. The City Council agreed to purchase property from the church. The field is in poor condition due to the lack of <br />irrigation. The surrounding landscaping is in poor shape as well. Staff estimates the addition of irrigation to the ballfield, soccer fields and the <br />landscaping around entrance of park to cost between $23.000- $26.000. <br />Justification <br />The PTRC tours our parks and have indicated that irrigation for our main sport fields and landscaping would be beneficial to users and <br />aesthetically pleasing. In addition. the PTRC recommends a drinking fountain when this work is done. The new approved Maintenance Plan <br />has a fertilizing schedule for our sport fields that would benefit greatly from irrigation. Staff discussed this project with NSSA - North Suburban <br />Soccer Association and they have sent a letter to the City indicating that they would like to donate $5.000 toward this project in 2012. <br />Expenditures <br />2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Total <br />Construction /Maintenance 26.000 <br />26,000 <br />Total <br />26,000 <br />26,000 <br />Funding Sources 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Total <br />Capital improvement Funds (P1 18,000 18,000 <br />Donations 8,000 8,000 <br />Total <br />Budget Impact/Other <br />26,000 26,000 <br />Improvement of this field will decrease the amount of labor devoted for maintenance and field repair costs.
