ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — September 16, 2019 2 <br />vehicles. There are currently 139 spaces in the lot. The lot could be reduced in size and reserve <br />the ability to expand again in the future. The lot has a fair amount of wasted space. Reducing to <br />100 spaces could reduce the parking lot by nearly 25%. The Church does not want to transfer <br />ownership to the City. <br />Councilmember Holmes felt the Church was being unrealistic to have the City reconstruct a <br />parking lot we don't own. <br />Interim Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom responded that one issue may be <br />severing the parking lot from the building would reduce the value of the property. <br />Councilmember Holden said she thought the idea was to reduce the parking lot size for lower <br />maintenance costs, and get the extra green space as park land. <br />Bolton and Menk Principal Engineer Lloyd described the map with existing and proposed <br />features of the park, which included new trails, reconstruction of the parking lot, construction of a <br />warming house, LED lighting improvements, and general landscape components. The shared lot <br />is proposed to be reconstructed with concrete curb and gutter. There is a proposed maintenance <br />line with property to the south of the line belonging to the Church and north of the line to the City. <br />An ADA compliant trial leads to the warming house. Clearing and grubbing will be required to <br />help create the trail and visibility. There are two concepts for the warming house, a low <br />maintenance structure of concrete with a metal roof and oversized garage door, and a framed <br />structure with wood siding, metal roof and oversized garage door. There would be grading to <br />minimize flooding. She discussed the cost estimates for individual items. <br />Councilmember Holden asked how much the temporary warming house costs. <br />City Administrator Perrault replied that is was approximately $5000 last year. <br />Councilmember Holmes asked for further explanation of the park lighting and wondered if it <br />was necessary with the parks closing at dusk. <br />Councilmember Holden requested the discussion be tabled until there is some agreement struck <br />with the Church regarding the parking lot. <br />Councilmember Holmes agreed. <br />Interim Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom noted that if the City does a <br />substantial park improvement it would need to be ADA compliant, or if a trail is modified or <br />reconstructed it would have to be made ADA compliant. <br />Interim Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom suggested the City focus on <br />reconstructing the northerly parking spots that the City needs and ask for ownership of that <br />portion of the lot be transferred to the City. <br />Councilmember Holden said they would like to see that portion green space as there is no need <br />for the parking lot to be so large. If the parking lot is reduced and reconstructed by the City, the <br />reward would be the green space. <br />
