Pour Concrete in Ice Rink <br /> Ms. Lien explained that both Mr. Peterson and Mr. Palzer have questioned if the Park and <br /> Recreation Committee have ever considered pouring concrete in the hockey rink at <br /> Laurie LaMotte Park. Concrete would create a base under the ice, which would make it <br /> easier to flood and would also ensure a smoother surface on the ice. It could be <br /> constructed so that when the concrete is poured, spickets or hoses could be installed <br /> around the rink for flooding purposes. Also, this would bring a place where youth could <br /> roller - blade, skateboard, etc. in the summer. The committee elected to discuss this option <br /> further at the May meeting, where more specific bids/quotes could be looked at. <br /> Lawn Care Proposals <br /> Ms. Lien explained that Mr. Palter had submitted quotes received from TruGreen <br /> ChemLawn and Greener Pastures — which use organic materials. Mr. Palzer <br /> recommended that we do NOT Spring fertilize at Laurie LaMotte Park and Acorn Creek <br /> Park because the grass is still fairly new and was just fertilized in the Fall. The Park and <br /> Recreation Committee decided to follow Mr. Palzer's recommendation. Mr. Navin <br /> offered to contact Mr. Palzer to discuss this and other issues, and will report back at the <br /> May meeting. <br /> On -Site Sanitation <br /> Mr. Larson explained that he had been in contact with On -Site Sanitation and was quoted <br /> the same fees as last year. Mr. Larson felt there should be a satellite placed at Acorn <br /> Creek Park this year in addition to the ones at Tracie McBride and Laurie LaMotte Parks. <br /> The Committee requested Ms. Lien to have Mr. Palzer go ahead and order three (3) <br /> satellites for the three (3) parks. <br /> Basketball Hoops at Ea ]g a Park <br /> Ms. Lien explained that Mr. Palzer had suggested installing basketball hoops on the pad <br /> that was originally intended to be a tennis court at Eagle Park. Since kids are already <br /> going to the park and hanging out, it would be an inexpensive way to provide something <br /> for them to do. The committee discussed the advantages and disadvantages of installing <br /> basketball hoops, and came to a conclusion that Mr. Porter will explore the fees involved, <br /> and bring it back for further discussion at the May meeting. <br /> DISCUSSION ITEMS <br /> GameTime Quotes, Contract and Payment <br /> Ms. Lien explained that she included these in the packet for the committee to review, <br /> since the original quote did not include benches, picnic tables and trash receptacles, Ms. <br /> Lien felt the committee should see the actual signed contract with all inclusions. <br /> Goetz Landscape & Irrigation Contract <br /> This was included as an FYI, showing the actual signatures and a copy of the payment <br /> sent to Mr. Goetz as a retainer. Mr. Goetz has already begun landscaping around the park <br /> signs. <br /> 5 <br />
