<br />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 />weekfor 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 oj I would greatly appreciate it if you <br />would keep my opinion in mind when discussing at your upcoming budget meeting. <br /> <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 /> <br />VI. UPDATES <br /> <br />City Council approved final payment to Bonestroo for work on Hidden Spring Park as recommended by the <br />Parks & Recreation Committee. <br /> <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 /> <br />lrri2ation at Hidden Sorine: Park <br /> <br />City Council declined to approve an irrigation system for Hidden Spring Park, due to severe budget <br />concerns. <br /> <br />Bids to Treat Ash Trees at Hidden Sorine: and Citv Hall for Emerald Ash Borer <br /> <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 /> <br />Pedestrian & Bicvcle Ramos/Curb Cut Outs on CSAH 14 at Lakeland Circle & Peltier Lake <br />lli:b:l: <br /> <br />A request was sent to Anoka County Highway Department to look at this issue per the Parks & Recreations <br />Committee's request.
