• Minutes of Regular Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting Village of Arden Hills July 29, 1986 Village Hall Call to Order The meeting was called to order at 7:40 p.m. by Chairman Sand. Roll Call Present: David Sand, Adele Anderson, Don Messerly, Alan Montgomery, Tom Mulcahy, Jim Otto, Mark Peterson Absent: Gerald Dreyling, Keith Enrooth, Mary Gillies, Jim Mishek Also Present: Councilman Tom Sather, Parks Director J. T. Buckley Planner Orlyn Miller Finance Committee Liaisons Trudy Rautio, Chuck Mertensotto Approval of Minutes It was moved by Mulcahy, seconded by Anderson, that the minutes of May 20 be approved as submitted. Motion carried unanimously. Cummings Park Hockey Rink, Lighting, and Shelter Planner Miller presented construction plans and cost estimates for the park shelter (warming house) previously planned for Cummings Park. (At May meeting of this committee, Miller had been asked to prepare plans for a garage-type structure with attractive roof design, large overhangs, and having the front side extended to create a porch effect - no plumbing). • Preliminary estimates of the costs of a contractor constructed (stick-built) versus prefab building revealed that the cost of a contractor constructed building would be considerably less. Miller is proposing a 20 x 20 foot building, with a 10 foot overhang in front. The building will have a hip roof and asphalt shingles. Committee discussed having a shake shingle roof, but decided against it because shake shingles are (1) more vulnerable to vandalism, and (2) more flammable. Committee recommends redwood siding. Plans include a plywood ceiling inside and outside (under overhang). One steel pedestrian door and one 6 foot wide overhead equipment door are provided. Committee recommends the equipment door be 8 feet wide. Rationale for this request is that the cost of an 8 foot door is about the same as a 6 foot door, and the interior will be more usable for storage purposes with an 8 foot door. Building will be constructed on a concrete slab. The quotation does not include cost of electrical wiring. It was Miller's opinion that wiring could probably be done most economically by the firm installing the hockey lights. Committee concurred to ask Buckley to get a quotation for this cost. Committee recommended heating with electric heaters. Committee further recommends that insulation and interior paneling be added to the building plans. Since cost is not expected to exceed $15,000, Committee would like quotations from several contractors for the building. It would probably take about three days to prepare the concrete slab; construction time is estimated at three days • to a week. Motion was made by Peterson, seconded by Otto, that the following construction plans for Cummings Park be recommended to Council for approval:
