Parks&Recreation Committee <br /> Meeting Minutes 09-02-09 <br /> City bypassing this service especially since the League paid for a new drag last year for the City to use. <br /> Centennial Lakes Little League has provided baseball and softball opportunities for boys and girls in our <br /> community as well as contributed to improvements to the fields and this is accomplished through the help of <br /> their volunteers. I don't see where the big costs savings would be figuring 1 hour per day, 4 days a <br /> week for the months of May and June. Lastly, the League doesn't have the equipment available in <br /> Centerville to maintain the fields or personnel available to take care of I would greatly appreciate it if you <br /> would keep my opinion in mind when discussing at your upcoming budget meeting. <br /> As this is a City Council decision, the committee can only recommend the ball fields be maintained by <br /> Public Works Staff in the manner they have in the past allowing the Centennial Little League to continue <br /> using the fields. <br /> VI. UPDATES <br /> City Council approved final payment to Bonestroo for work on Hidden Spring Park as recommended by the <br /> Parks&Recreation Committee. <br /> The Council gave preliminary approval to the trailside park that will be constructed along Main Street <br /> downtown. This is a component of the trail grant project. <br /> Irrigation at Hidden Spring Park <br /> City Council declined to approve an irrigation system for Hidden Spring Park, due to severe budget <br /> concerns. <br /> Bids to Treat Ash Trees at Hidden Spring and City Hall for Emerald Ash Borer <br /> City Council declined to approve chemical treatment of Ash trees to prevent Emerald Ash Borer. Staff will <br /> see if there are any available recommendations from the Department of Agriculture or Anoka County Parks <br /> on chemical treatment of Ash trees. <br /> Pedestrian & Bicycle Ramps/Curb Cut Outs on CSAH 14 at Lakeland Circle & Peltier Lake <br /> Drive <br /> A request was sent to Anoka County Highway Department to look at this issue per the Parks & Recreations <br /> Committee's request. No answer has been received at this time. <br /> VII.
