Date: 10/08/22 <br />To: Marie Hinton, Chair, Arden Hills (AH) Parks, Trails, <br />Recreation Committee (PRTC) <br />From: Kristine Poelzer, AH PTRC member <br />Agenda item: Improvement Residents Park Use - <br />Request for PTRC discussion at October 18, 2022 meeting. <br />Intended motion: Complete cost feasibility to install <br />door automatic timer open/lock at Perry and Cummings <br />Parks restroom facilities and add to 2024 budget if not <br />capable to install sooner. <br />Background: In July I visited a Lakeville, MN, park and <br />noticed signs stating restroom doors automatically open <br />and close at certain times. <br />Currently AH Perry and Cummings parks’ indoor <br />restrooms aren't open unless the facilities/ball field are <br />rented and when the city holds an event. We don't have <br />staff nor police to manually open and close them every <br />day. The locked restrooms are useless the majority of the <br />time when they could be used every day by residents <br />using the parks and trails. The porta-potties at these two parks could then be used at other AH parks where <br />there currently are none. <br />Lakeville City Hall response to my inquiry: “We have installed automatic door locks to our restroom facilities <br />for some of the same reasons you mention. The system is fairly simple in design, but has worked well for us <br />for a number of years. The contractor that supplied and installed the door locks was Twin City Hardware (TCH) <br />out of Oakdale, MN. Generally speaking, we installed electronic door strikes that are controlled by a <br />timer. The wires needed to be run from the controller to each door which wasn’t too invasive for our park <br />buildings. <br />We continue to have keys that will unlock the door from the outside (in case of a power outage or other <br />reason the doors are not open when staff need to enter the room ). In addition, we continue to have an <br />operable handle on the inside of the door, to ensure someone could exit the room if the door strikes locked <br />while they were inside. <br />If you have any further questions, please contact me. Thank you.” <br />Mark Kruse, Parks Superintendent, City of Lakeville <br />Phone - 952-985-2715 Mobile- 952-985-2719 <br />7570 179th Street, Lakeville, MN 55044
