ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – SEPTEMBER 21, 2020 6 <br /> <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom reported the study cost $35,000 to complete. <br />The cooperative agreement indicates the City paid $9,000 and Ramsey County paid $26,000. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant summarized the comments of the Council stating the consensus was to keep this <br />project under consideration, but with updated traffic information in a post COVID world. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom commented he would bring the Snelling <br />Avenue roadway improvement project feasibility study back to the Council and would have the <br />County Road E/Snelling Avenue intersection improvements as a separate project. <br /> <br />D. Winter Recreation Programming <br /> <br />Recreation Programmer Vaughan stated the City Council Special Work Session on July 27, <br />2020 included a discussion of recreation programming and challenges associated with COVID-19. <br />The Council directed staff to evaluate alternatives for winter recreation programs and place this <br />information on a future work session for Council consideration. Staff has organized winter <br />recreational activities into five categories. The Council may have questions or request additional <br />information regarding these programs. Final direction from the City Council is needed by the <br />October 19 work session if the Council wishes to publish the winter recreation guide during the <br />last week in October. Staff provided further comment on the proposed winter programming <br />opportunities and requested feedback from the Council on how to proceed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked how the warming houses would be disinfected. <br /> <br />Recreation Programmer Vaughan explained the rink attendants would clean the buildings <br />frequently. He stated staff could draft a plan for the warming house maintenance. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden expressed concern with the size of the warming houses and how many <br />people would be using them during the winter months. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung questioned what type of policy would have to be put in place to <br />ensure social distancing would occur during the winter months on the ice rinks and within the <br />warming houses. <br /> <br />Recreation Programmer Vaughan commented staff would have to set a maximum occupancy <br />limit within the warming houses. He indicated the warming house attendants would have to be <br />coached on implementing and enforcing the occupancy limits. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant inquired if the City should provide outdoor rinks for general skating this winter. <br /> <br />Council consensus was to support the City providing outdoor rinks for general skating this winter. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked if the City should provide warming houses and attendants this winter. <br /> <br />Councilmember Scott did not support the City having its warming houses open this winter. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung agreed the City should not open the warming houses.
