<br />The Committee discussed the upcoming Wheels Park Meeting, and how they would like <br />to conduct the meeting. After discussion, the Committee directed Ms. Lien to do the <br />following before the meeting: <br /> <br />1. Obtain pictures off the Internet of equipment offered by both vendors, to hang <br />and distribute at the meeting. <br />2. Create a voting ballot for the youth to vote on their choice of vendor, and what <br />pieces of equipment they would like to see. <br />3. Create some type of "Code of Conduct" that the youth will need to sign, <br />specifYing responsibiIity, respect, maintenance, ownership, timeframes, and <br />the fact that the park and/or admittance into the park can be taken away if <br />abused. <br /> <br />Mr. Lee questioned ifhelmets and pads would be required. Mr. Peterson explained the <br />requirements of a Tier I Skate Park, and the fact that proper signage is a key component <br />in requiring helmets and pads, or not. We would need to have a sign that reads "Ride at <br />Your Own Risk". Mr. Peterson has been in contact with the League of Minnesota Cities <br />and when we are at the point of constructing signs, he has a contact to help with the <br />proper verbiage. <br /> <br />The Committee briefly discussed the possibility of a Grand Opening. <br /> <br />McBride Park Timbers and Brush Abutting Pond <br />Mr. Walter explained he had visited McBride Park and had come to the conclusion that <br />not all of the timbers will need to be replaced. Approximately 17 will need replacement. <br />Mr. Peterson had pounded down the nails that were popping out, but it is a temporary fix. <br />They will pop out again. Mr. Walter explained that because there isn't any type of <br />support on the outside of the timbers, they are leaning outward due to the amount of <br />pressure from the sand inside. If dirt were built up around the outside of the timbers it <br />would keep them from leaning. Mr. LeBlanc commented that maybe the Committee <br />should consider a more permanent solution. If the Committee just replaces the timbers, <br />the same thing will happen again in a few years, and the Committee will be looking at the <br />same problem all over. Mr. Walter feh a more equitable solution would be to spend <br />approximately $3,000 now to replace the 17 timbers vs. spendiog a substantial amount <br />more to re-do the entire play area with fibar and concrete. He didn't fuel comfortable <br />investing a lot of money into an already established park, for a border that already exists. <br />There are some areas in the City that don't have anything. Even if it means this is just a <br />temporary fix that buys the Committee five or six years. <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson mentioned there are two (2) benches at McBride Park that are wobbly and <br />wom He would like to replace them with two (2) benches that are currently in storage at <br />Public Works. The Committee agreed with the replacement. <br /> <br />L_______ <br /> <br />5 <br />
