<br />City of Centerville <br />Park & Recreation Committee <br />August 5, 2020 <br /> <br />There is currently a water service stub near the trail and it would be prudent to consider the installation <br />of a drinking fountain. New designs include a bottle filling spout; this would need to be in compliance <br />with any current or future Covid-19 regulations or restrictions. There was a consensus by the committee <br />members to obtain a bid for a water fountain with a bottle filling spout. <br /> <br />VI. NEW COMMITTEE BUSINESS <br /> <br />1. Donation from Ms. Judy Hansen <br /> <br />The city has been offered a donation from Ms. Judith Hansen, in the amount of $1,250 for the purpose <br />of placing a bench along the trail, near Meadow Count, in honor of her deceased husband, John. It was <br />suggested to place it at least 2 feet from the trail so no damage would occur from the snow plow. <br /> <br />Motion made by Committee Member Bettinger, seconded by Committee Member Freiermuth to <br />recommend to City Council to accept the donation of $1,250 from Ms. Judith Hansen and direct <br />staff to order & install the bench at the proposed location, near Meadow Court. All in favor. <br />Motion carried. <br /> <br />2. Park Accessibility – Audit Report & Paving Quotes <br /> <br />An accessibility audit of the parks in Centerville has identified 3 park areas that do not have accessible <br />routes to the play structures, benches and/or satellites; they are Royal Meadows, Eagle & Laurie LaMotte <br />Memorial Parks. The improvements would include 76 feet, 4.5 feet, 10 feet and an area at LaMotte of 8 <br />x 12 for access to the building. Also included would be replacing 105 feet of trail along 20th Avenue <br />that is broken with trees growing through the trail. Parks with a parking area do have ADA parking <br />signage and curb ramps. By making these improvements, all of Centerville’s Parks will then be in <br />compliance for accessibility to facilities. Three quotes for these improvements have been received. It <br />was recommended by Administrator Statz that funds should come out of the street fund and possibly <br />some from the Park & Rec trail fund. <br /> <br />Motion made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Bettinger to <br />recommend to the city council to recommend awarding the contract to Muellner Asphalt for the <br />construction of trail improvements in Royal Meadows, Eagle & Laurie LaMotte Memorial Parks, <br />in the amount of $10,584. All in favor. Motion carried. <br /> <br />VII. APPROVAL OF JULY 1, 2020 MINUTES <br /> <br /> Motion made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Errickson-Grahek <br />to approve the minutes of the July 1, 2020 P & R committee meeting as written.
