Section 14-59 of the Arden Hills <br />Municipal Code addresses recreational areas in mobile <br />home parks. The City Attorney has clarified that as long <br />as the pool is required as part of the SUP, the swimming <br />pool must be maintained for tenants' use.

However, in her <br />experience, insurance costs have escalated the cost of <br />the pool. Most businesses have not continued the pool. <br />She stated she believes that if the residents want this <br />pool that they should want to work with the park owners <br />to resolve this issue. <br /> <br />Councilmember Hicks asked if there is any requirement <br />that the City maintain the pool rather than the Park. <br />Fritsinger indicated that there are no minutes that refer <br />to how and why this pool was put in.
