City of Centerville Parks & Recreation Committee June 6, 2012 3. Volunteers for Park Monument Signs /Contact Area Schools - Currently Royal Meadows and Hidden Spring have many weeds that need to be removed; there has been some clean-up done at Tracie McBride; the remaining parks are in very good shape. The playground at Tracie McBride has sand, not wood chips. Contacting Area Schools for volunteers will be tabled for now. 4. Sand Volleyball Court a. Quotes, Specifications, Preparation & Construction — Committee Member Grahek obtained an additional bid in the amount of $22,000 for the first court and $19,000 for the second court. The first bid would cover getting the equipment onsite, so the bid for a second court should be somewhat lower. The Committee would like to obtain an additional bid. Currently there is $11,000 set aside for the construction of one court, plus the pledge of a $5,000 donation from the Dead Broke Saddle Club. This project may need to be postponed until 2013 depending on the best bid received and total funds available. b. $5,000 pledge from Dead Broke Saddle Club — Committee discussed having staff contact them since this donation has not yet been received. However, since there is some re- evaluation being done of charitable gambling, which may impact the actual amount of their donation, the Committee decided to hold off further discussion of this until August or September and keep it an open item on the Action Items List. 5. Special Event Permit Application — Fete des Lacs Skate/Run/Walk This event is scheduled for July 28 with set -up beginning on July 27. There was discussion about modifying the skate course due to some areas being too narrow for passing. Chairman Branch sent that information to the Anoka County permit department with the proposed changes. He then explained the differences between various types of events and that many are geared for the professionals, not as much for the amateurs and this event should be focused on fitness and recreation, primarily for the amateur. Motion was made by Committee Member Haiden, seconded by Committee Member Grahek to recommend to the City Council to approve the Special Event Application for the Fete des Lacs Skate/Run/Walk on July 28, 2012, with one modification on the application i.e. page 2, #4, last line: add "Kids" after the number 50. All in favor. Chair Branch abstained. Motion carried. 6. Park Facility Permit Application: Hidden Spring Park — August Wedding Motion was made by Committee Member Grahek, seconded by Committee Member Peterson to recommend to the City Council to approve the Park Facility Permit Application for the wedding in Hidden Spring Park on August 25, 2012.
