CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: March 13, 1996 <br /> TO: Parks & Recreation Committee 1 <br /> FROM: Cindy S. Walsh, Parks & Recreation Director <br /> SUBJECT: March Committee Meeting Agenda Information <br /> 1. Perry Park <br /> A. Grand Opening (Saturday, June 1) <br /> The Committee started to brainstorm possibilities for the grand opening. Please <br /> consider other possibilities to share with the Committee at the meeting. <br /> B. Playstructure Planning <br /> I will bring a few examples of possible structures to the meeting. The Committee <br /> should decide which features they want and price limits. I will then send out <br /> requests for proposals to various playground manufactures. <br /> C. Fundraising <br /> I have obtained a $5000 grant for the Phase II of Perry Park (playstructure). I will <br /> continue to explore other alternatives. <br /> 2. Gateway Flower Planting <br /> I have enclosed a diagram of what Arden Hills Nursery is proposing for the site at <br /> Lexington and County Road E (southside). I will explain it at the meeting. <br /> 3. Banners <br /> According to Lynette Kreidler's records, the total price for banners was $5,840. While I <br /> agree that the banners add positively to the County Road E area, I am not sure that this <br /> should be a Park Fund expenditure. I will try to get prices on new banners. The <br /> Committee needs to discuss the replacement policy for banners. The banner concept and <br /> printing should be approved by the City Council. <br /> 4. Trail Update <br /> I have had conversations with the North Townhouse Association regarding their property <br /> line. I will update the Committee at the meeting. <br /> The apparent low bidder for the 1996 project appears to be Thor Construction at $37,385 <br /> for the main sections. $15,159 for Alternate A and $14,375 for Alternate B. <br /> The City Council will approve these bids at the March 25 Council meeting. <br />
