Council Liaison Updates — Mr. Terry Sweeney <br />• There are a few parties interested in the Block 7 parcel <br />•Corrections/modifications need to be made to several of the city's plans, i.e. comprehensive, <br />downtown, etc. <br />0 It was stated to the council members the importance on staying informed about the Park & <br />Rec activities and their vision for the park lands. <br />0 Mr. Sweeney stated the Lions Club is a great resource for additional funds and/or volunteers <br />needed for projects, activities, etc. <br />0 A question was asked about if there was a decision made about the replacement of the hockey <br />rink boards; there has not been. A determination needs to be made by this committee to replace <br />them with wood or a wood substitute or if the park is revamped perhaps a new rink. The warming <br />house is in severe disrepair and needs to be repaired or rebuilt. <br />0 One of the top items listed on the survey of the public for improvements, additions or other <br />changes to the parks was building a new community center. Many people have differing ideas just <br />what a community center should be, therefore a definition should be developed of what Centerville <br />needs and can afford. <br />0 9 1 <br />Motion made by Committee Member Peterson, seconded by Committee Chair Errickson- <br />Grahek to adjourn the October 2, 2024 Park and Recreation Committee Meetin2.
