Capital Improvement Plan <br />City of Arden Hills, Minnesota <br />. # <br />10- Park -005 <br />Project Name Valentine Park Improvements <br />Description <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 <br />cleaning of the culverts. The City needs to monitor the lake levels. The park is draining better but has not seen a significant rain to determine <br />how well it is draining. The PTRC has recommended a second opinion on the Valentine Park park drainage analysis_ The park is in need of <br />improvements; to what extent will be up to the Council and the neighborhood. <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 />p y <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 <br />shape and therefore could make it until the park is improved. The park drainage needs to be addressed before amenities are replaced_ <br />Prior <br />I 70,000 <br />Total <br />Prior <br />I 70,000 <br />Total <br />Type Improvement <br />Useful Life <br />Category Park Capital Improvements <br />Expenditures <br />Construction /Maintenance 260,000 <br />Funding Sources <br />Total 260,000 <br />Surface Water Mgmt Utility Fu 260,000 <br />Total 260,000 <br />Department Parks Department <br />Contact Park & Recreation Mgr <br />Priority n/a <br />Total Project Cost: $330,000 <br />2011 thru 2015 <br />2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Total <br />260,000 <br />260,000 <br />2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Total <br />260,000 <br />260,000 <br />Budget Impact/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.
