Capital Improvement Plan 2010 thru 2014 <br /> City of Arden Hills, Minnesota <br /> Project# 10-Park-005 ia.t <br /> Project Name <br /> . <br /> Valentine Park Improvements <br /> Type Improvement Priority n/a <br /> Useful Life Contact Park&Recreation Mgr <br /> Category Park Capital Improvements Department Parks Department <br /> Description Total Project Cost $3309000 <br /> The City completed a drainage study of this park. The City Council has asked for the PTRC to review and recommend potential park <br /> improvements as well as seek neighborhood input. The elevation of Lake Valentine has improved due to removal of the beaver dam and cleaning <br /> of the culverts. The City needs to monitor the lake levels into the spring thaw. The park is still too low and is very wet due to drainage from the <br /> neighborhoods. Council will want neighborhood input on the type of improvements this park needs. <br /> Justification <br /> This park is in poor shape. The parking lot is in need of replacement and there is no shelter,as it was moved due to the flooding. The play <br /> structure was installed in 1990.On the City's 20 year replacement schedule,it should be replaced in 2010,however,the playground is in fine shape <br /> and therefore could make it until the park is improved. The park drainage needs to be addressed before amenities are replaced. <br /> Prior Expenditures 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Total <br /> 20,0001 Planning/Design 50,000 50,000 <br /> Total Construction/Maintenance 260,000 260,000 <br /> Total 50,000 260,000 310,000 <br /> Prior Funding Sources 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Total <br /> 20,000 Surface Water Mgmt Utility Fun 50,000 260,000 310,000 <br /> Total Total 50,000 260,000 310,000 <br /> Operational Imp act/Other <br /> The park improvement will help with maintenance because the park is usually so wet,it is difficult to mow and when done,one large area is not <br /> able to be mowed at all.
