<br />Parks & Recreation Committee <br />Meeting~m~03~3~4 <br /> <br />Wheels Skate Park <br /> <br />The committee discussed the option of contacting a representative from Sunrise, one of the <br />suppliers of skate board equipment, to help determine the placement of various pieces and what <br />could be effectively added to what is currently owned by the city. <br /> <br />Reoort of Ice Rink / Warmin2 House Season Closin2 <br /> <br />Chairperson Peterson reported the Ice Rink Attendants did a great job this year. The rink was <br />only closed one day when there was an 8" snowfall. Chairperson Peterson stated there were <br />approximately 1,000 people who used the rink during the 47 days it was open. The committee <br />would like to see the Parks & Recreation Committee sponsor more frequent Skate Nights next <br />season, perhaps every Friday. This will be looked at in the fall of2004. <br /> <br />St. Paul Water Utili tv Prooertv on CenterviJIe Lake <br /> <br />The committee was given a copy of a memo from City Administrator Moore-Sykes to the City <br />Council questioning whether the City Council and the Parks & Recreation Committee would be <br />interested in purchasing the St. Paul Water Utility Property on Centerville Lake. Vice- <br />Chairperson LeBlanc suggested inquiring to see if the city could purchase one of the parcels <br />opposed to both. The committee would like the City Council reconsider the previous decision <br />to not purchase the properties and further research the options available. Council Member Lee <br />will present this to council. Chairperson Peterson will contact Mr. Bill Tschida from the St. <br />Paul Regional Water Services to inquire if they would consider selling one lot, and if so, would <br />the price of $270,000 be less if the property were purchased before being assessed for the <br />upcoming street improvements. Also, would the price be reduced if the City of Centerville <br />took responsibility for removing the water main pipes that are located on the property. The <br />Parks & Recreation Committee feels this property would be a wonderful asset to the City of <br />Centerville and there currently are enough monies in the Parks & Recreation Budget to finance <br />this project. <br /> <br />vm.
