City of Centerville <br /> Park & Recreation Committee <br />April 1, 2020 <br />the recently donated light for the sledding hill with additional wiring of areas near the skate park <br />and along the trail being future goals of the Committee. He reported that the bid was for $7,110 <br />for the services and felt that this was a viable bid from a responsible contractor. <br />Discussion ensued regarding funding, Park Dedication Fees, Capital Equipment Funds, etc. City <br />Administrator Statz stated that the funding would come from the Capital Equipment Funds. <br />Several Committee Members had questions or comments: when work would be commenced, was <br />the bid lower due to additional work on site, previous quote received for same work of $15,000, <br />etc. <br />Motion by Chair Waeghe, seconded by Committee Member Errickson-Grahek to <br />Recommend to Council to Authorize the Electrical Services/Installation at Laurie LaMotte <br />Park Contained in the Bid Associated with the Irrigation Project. <br />All in favor. Motion carried. <br />VI. NEW COMMITTEE BUSINESS <br />1. Port-a-Pots <br /> <br />Administrator Statz reported that the City has received several request for these to be placed in the <br />parks. He stated that upon discussions with Staff that it has been determined that proper sanitation <br />cannot be achieved by the vendor which services the facilities once a week to properly protect the <br />public from the spread of the COVID-19 virus. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Committee was that they concurre <br />aff and the Committee would review the item again for possible <br />placement. It was also felt that many activities (organized soccer and baseball/softball) were also <br />ceased so the usage would be minimal at this time. <br /> <br />2. Vandalism of Laurie LaMotte Drinking Fountain <br /> <br />Administrator Statz stated that the drinking fountain in the park has been vandalized/broken two <br />(2) or three (3) times in the last several years and suggested that the Committee consider <br />alternatives to the existing fountain. He suggested either removing it or providing something that <br />was more durable such as a metal ground mounted fountain. He also reported that an individual <br />was found guilty of vandalizing play equipment who is now completing community service <br />through the City. <br /> <br />Committee Member Seeley had concern for the indoor drinking fountain located within the <br />warming house. She stated that it is badly stained and unappealing to drink water from. <br /> <br />The Committee discussed switching of the two fountains and replacement. City Administrator <br />Statz stated that this funding would also be from the Capital Equipment Funds. The Committee <br />requested that quotes/proposals be provided at their May meeting. <br /> <br />3. Zoom Conference Meeting Format <br />Page 4 of 6 <br /> <br />
