Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes October 4, 2006
Committee Member Seeley requested the following sentence on the top of page 3 be changed to
reflect a rain garden type of drainage opposed to a rain garden. The committee discussed whether
or not a water fountain could be installed using some type of rain garden for the water runoff
Committee Member Seeley also asked to clarify the paragraph on page 3 regarding the
CommUnity Impact Grants from Home Depot in that the response in the minutes were from the
City Attorney and it was never the Parks & Recreation Committee's intention to involve the
Centennial School District.
Motion was made by Committee Member Merkel, seconded by Committee Member Seeley,
to approve the September 6, 2006 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes with
the above corrections. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
VI. COMMITTEE BUSINESS
Oath of Office - New Parks & Recreation Committee Members
Chairperson Peil administered the Oath of Office to both the new committee members; Mr.
Kevin Selander and Ms. Carrie Jakober and welcomed them to the committee.
Tracie McBride Memorial Park Renovations
The committee received a letter from Mr. Josh Nelson who is 10 years old and lives near Tracie McBride
Memorial Park. Mr. Nelson's letter requested renovations for the park that would include moving the
sandboxes over towards Brian Drive making room for a baseball or football field. Ms. Stephan also
received suggestions from a teenage resident requesting the City consider football fields at either Tracie
McBride Memorial Park or Acorn Creek or both. It was said that on any given fall night there are football
games being played by the neighborhood kids at both parks and even a small football field would be great.
Chairperson Peil did not bring in the playground equipment catalogs, but will do so at the next meeting.
Chairperson Peil will also meet with Mr. Paul Palzer before the next committee meeting to determine
exactly what needs to be removed from Tracie McBride Memorial Park and when it can be done.
The committee discussed having a full court basketball court at Tracie McBride Memorial Park and the
advantages and disadvantages to having lights. Having lights may disturb the neighboring residents, but
Committee Member Seeley stated that without lights it would really limit the playing time during the
school year. The lights would not have to be very high for this purpose and they could be on a timer to
shut off at say 9:00 nightly. The committee discussed having a football field either at Tracie McBride
Memorial Park or Acorn Creek Park. Acorn Creek has a lot of unutilized open space and the committee
would like to consider not only a football field at this park, but a parking lot as well. There is currently no
parking.
Consideration of Shelter at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park
The committee questioned if the City were to build a picnic shelter at Laurie LaMotte Memorial
Park and wanted to install a water fountain, could it be done without installing sewer by having
the water run off into a rain garden type drainage area?
Mr. Palzer, Building Official, said state code does allow for this and it could be done.
20f5
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes October 4, 2006
Chairperson Peil informed the new members that there is approximately $24,000 in charitable
gambling funds that were donated to the City by the Spring Lake Park Lions a few years ago and
has been held for warming house renovations. Currently there are no further renovations that are
going to be done to the warming house so these monies could be used for a shelter at this park.
Chairperson Peil questioned what is the purpose of the structure? The committee felt the main
purpose would be shade and water for those families who are involved the sporting activities at
the ball fields. The committee questioned then would it be better to have bleachers or picnic
tables? Bleacher would limit the shelter to games only, but picnic tables would limit the seating
at the games. Chairperson Peil stated we have catalogs specific to just shelters. Concrete will
probably be the most expensive item. The water may also be expensive since it would have to be
run quite a distance.
1601 LaMotte Drive I Centerville Lake Property
Some questions that came up when the committee toured the property were: 1) Do we own the
parcel where the pump house sits and if so, are we responsible for removing the pump house
also? 2) If we do not own the pump house parcel, can we put up a privacy fence around it to hide
it from the view of the park and/or to keep children from playing in that area?
The committee discussed the fence that currently surrounds the property and whether just the
gate should be removed and the rest of the fence left up, basically to keep people who are using
the park from encroaching on the neighboring properties. The fence in front is surrounded by
lilac bushes. A fishing pier is being considered, though there were objections from the abutting
properties concerning a pier. The committee thought perhaps a dock with a 'T' at the end and
seating would be a nice addition. Chairperson Peil stated there are often grants available for
fishing piers. The committee has many upcoming projects and expenditures so whatever is done
at this park will probably be done in phases.
The committee needs to consider a name for the new park at 1601 LaMotte Drive. Committee
Member Amundsen had suggested a name at the last committee meeting that reflected the park
being environmentally friendly, such as EcoPark. Mayor Capra suggested as the City's 150th
birthday approaches in 2007, a name reflecting the heritage and history of the City might be
appropriate. One suggestion was Heritage Landing. The committee liked the name Heritage
Landing, but one concerns was 'landing' implies boat launch and there will be no boat launch at
this site. There may also be confusion over Heritage Landing and Heritage Lab, which is in the
Anoka County Chain of Lakes Regional Park. The committee will come up with some ideas
before the next committee meeting.
The committee discussed bathroom facilities opposed to a satellite, but there is indoor plumbing
at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park and they cannot be open without an attendant at the park. If a
satellite is used at 1601 LaMotte Drive there are various places it could be hidden from view or
an enclosure structure could be built.
Ms. Stephan reported the City is waiting further information regarding the following issue
concerning this property:
30f5
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes October 4, 2006
Mr. John Meyer, Finance Director and Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works Director were out visiting
the new park property and reviewing the work for the demolition of the house and garage and
remembered that the storm sewer system at that driveway is not complete from the 2004 street
improvements. An email was sent by Mr. Patzer to Mr. Mark Statz, City Engineer with the
following questions:
Do you have plans for the completion of the storm sewer system? Does it include a pond on the
new park property or just some piping and a rain water garden type structure? Let me know if
you have a plan and if this needs to be reviewed by the Rice Creek Watershed prior to completion
of the work.
Update from Mr. Patzer September 25, 2006:
We are waitingfor a plan from Mr. Mark Statz, City Engineer, for the new park property. We are
hoping to put whatever they come up with along the south property line.
Update from Mr. Dallas Larson, City Administrator, on the demolition of the house and the
DNR Grant:
The demolition proposal presented at the last City Council meeting for the building demolition
appeared a bit high. We have requested a proposal from another area company and should have
that for consideration shortly. All inquiries to move the home have resulted in the determination
that it isn't cost effective.
Our request for a DNR grant to purchase the remaining St. Paul Water parcel was approved in
the amount of $150, 000. Finance Director, Mr. John Meyer, is working on the grant agreement
and related paper work. We should be able to close on the remaining land by mid November.
VII. UPDATES
YMCA Summer Proe:ram(s)
Committee Member Amundsen will update the committee on this item at the next scheduled
committee meeting.
Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Plav Structure - Sod & Trail Stub
The sod has been installed for a cost of $2,178.00. This exceeded the original quote (not to
exceed $2,000) as more sod was needed than originally estimated. The sod was laid
approximately 15' further to resolve a potential drainage problem. The trail stub has been
installed.
Formine: Subcommittees
Since there is a significant amount of research & planning to be done before spring 2007, the
committee formed subcommittees breaking them into the following:
40f5
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes October 4, 2006
1) Tracie McBride Memorial Park & Acorn Creek Park (Chairperson Peil, Committee Member
Jakober, Council Member Paar) 2) Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Shelter (Committee Members
Amundsen & Selander) and 3) 1601 LaMotte Drive (Committee Members Seeley & Merkel).
Pheasant Marsh 3rd Addition I Center Street Trail Stub
Pheasant Marsh, 3rd Addition has completed paving and curb. Bike paths and restoration are in
the process of being done. Mr. Tedd Peterson, Public Works Staff, walked the proposed trail
through Pheasant Marsh 3rd and the extension to Center Street with representatives of JR Hill
(the company installing the trail) and Bonestroo (City's engineering fIrm) to insure the placing of
the trail and the curves on the trail were conducive to plowing. The City is working with JR Hill
to install the trail stub from where the Pheasant Marsh trail ends to Center Street. The idea was
this was the opportunity to install this trail stub as without the stub the Pheasant Marsh trail will
just end in the fIeld. Some issues have come up however, that will put the Center Street trail stub
on hold. The abutting property owner at 1890 Center Street has a fence and landscaping installed
on the utility easement of the out lot, approximately 30' outside of their property line. The City
asked the property owner to remove the fence and install it back within their property line. The
homeowners report they were told years ago the property was theirs. In researching the property,
the out lot is not owned by the City as was previously thought by City Staff, but was tax
forfeiture in 1992 and is owned by the county. The City is currently pursuing the option of
buying the out lot from the county and working with the property owner to resolve the issue.
Update from Mr. Dallas Larson, City Administrator:
Downtown Redevelopment
The City's grant application to Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic
Development will have a decision in October. The grant focuses on Block 8, which is the block
north of the city property. (This concerns the Parks & Recreation Committee as the grant
mentioned above includes multiple trail stubs).
We met with Father Fitzgerald of St. Genevieve to discuss an option on the property they own
next to the lake (rectory). He indicated that they may consider an option for later purchase, but
they are not interested in parting with any property at the present time. I am working with the
City attorney to draft an option agreement that would give the City the opportunity to buy the
property if they decide to sell.
IX. ADJOURNMENT
Motion was made by Chairperson Peil, seconded by Committee Member Seeley, to adjourn the
October 4, 2006 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting at 8:20 p.m. All in favor. Motion passed
unanimously.

SUBJECT: Centennial Youth Hockey Association's Request for the Use of Laurie
LaMotte Memorial Park Hockey Rink for the 2005-2006 Season
DATE: October 26,2006
Centennial Youth Hockey Association's Use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park for Dry Land
Practice
CYHA requested the use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park for Dry Land Practice from August 10,
2006 through September 2006. This was approved by the committee and by City Council, but CYHA
was unable to use that time. CYHA again requested the use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park for Dry
Land Practice beginning in October and running through the start of outdoor ice. I sent the request
directly to City Council with the guidelines set in the previous Parks & Recreation Committee's
recommendation and City Council approved it at the October 11, 2006 City Council Meeting. CYHA
is currently using the facilities at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park for Dry Land Practice.
Attached is a request from the Centennial Youth Hockey Association for the use of Laurie LaMotte
Memorial Park Hockey Rink for the 2006-2007 season. Following, for your review, is the
recommendation to City Council from the Parks & Recreation Committee for the 2005-2006 season
and a copy of the waiver that was signed by the association for the current season.
Centennial Youth Hockev Association - Use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Hockey Rink for
the 2004-2005 Season
Ms. Laurie Powers, Outdoor Ice Coordinator for the Centennial Youth Hockey Association (CYHA),
sent a request to the committee regarding the use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park ice rink for the
2005-2006 hockey season. CYHA would like to use the rink for outdoor ice as they have in the past
and are requesting extended dedicated hours.
The committee discussed the association's request for additional ice time and opted to keep the days
and hours the same as in the past seasons, allowing Centerville residents access to the ice with the
exception of8:00 - 9:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Amundsen to
recommend to City Council approving the Centennial Youth Hockey Association's use of the
hockey rink for the 2005-2006 season with a dedicated half sheet of ice from 7:00 - 8:00 p.m. and
a dedicated full sheet of ice from 8:00 - 9:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. All in Favor:

Re: Centennial Youth Hockey Association (CYHA), Dry Land Practice
CYHA would like to request the use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park for fall dry
land practices. Dry land training begins in October and runs until the start of
outdoor ice. We use two other city parks for the dry land season, and were hoping we
could offer a third choice. The memo for CYHA Coaches is attached to this request, as
well as the signed waiver. The schedule for usage, as well as the coach's contact
information, will be provided as soon as it is available.

MEMO
TO: Parks & Recreation Committee
FROM: Kim Stephan
SUBJECT: Updates
DATE: October 26, 2006
City of Centerville Code of Ethics
Included in your packet is a copy of the City of Centerville Code of Ethics. This needs to be signed
yearly (in lanuary) by all committee members, but the new members need to review it and sign it to
finish out the current year. Please return the last page to myself or Mr. John Meyer, Finance Director.
Open Skatine: Coupons for Schwan Super Rink
When the City of Centerville entered into the agreement to support the Schwan Super Rink's
expansion, it was agreed the City would receive passes to coordinate some type of City event and offer
free ice time. City Administrator Larson recently received 48 Open Skating Coupons and would like
to pass them on to the Committee to determine a use for them.
Consideration of Dedication of Park at 1601 LaMotte Drive durine: the Anoka County
Sesquicentennial
Mayor Capra requested this item be passed onto the committee for discussion:
I met with the Anoka County Sesquicentennial committee for the 150th of Anoka County. They
wanted to know if we (the city) would like to have theformal dedication of the lake property park be
part of the official Anoka County sesquicentennial celebration.
I told them I would get back to them. After their suggestion I thought maybe we could have the park
open as soon as it is completed, but hold aformal dedication during our Fete des Lacs celebration.
I would like to have the Parks & Recreation Committee discuss this at their next meeting and
provide input back to the counciL
Replacine: Skate Park Equipment
Public Works supplied pictures of the skate park equipment that was removed due to damage. I did
not copy the pictures for the packet as they are in color and the damage does not show very well in
black and white. These will be available at the committee meeting. Public Works suggested not
ordering replacements from Sun Ramp as it was not felt the quality was as good as some of the pieces
lof3
from other vendors. Replacement parts were checked into to repair the existing pieces that were
removed, but Public Works Staff found this not to be a feasible option.
Available Property in Peltier Preserve
Per Mr. Dallas Larson, City Administrator:
Would you let the P&R Committee know that a representative of the owner of Lots 4, 5 and 5a of
Peltier Preserve has asked if the City is interested in buying these lots for a park. I told him that it
would be unlikely that we could afford them, but that I would pass his idea on to P & R for their
feedback.
Attached is a plat map for Peltier Preserve identifying the parcels.
Pheasant Marsh 3rd Addition & Center Street Trail Stub
Per City Administrator Larson, the City Engineer is satisfied with the as-built grading plan for
Pheasant Marsh 3rd Addition and the City can begin by issuing up to five permits for model homes.
Additional requirements will need to be met before occupancy permits can be granted. Included in
your packet is a copy of the Park Dedication Fees paid by Ground Development for Pheasant Marsh 3rd
Addition in the amount of $84,000.
The abutting property owner at 1890 Center Street had a fence and landscaping installed on the utility
easement of the out lot, approximately 30' outside of their property line. The City asked the property
owner to remove the fence and install it back within their property line. The homeowners report they
were told years ago the property was theirs. In researching the property, the out lot is not owned by the
City as was previously thought by City Staff, but was a tax forfeiture in 1992 and is owned by the
county. The City is currently in the process of buying the out lot from the county and the property
owner has moved the fence back far enough to install the trail.
The Pheasant Marsh 3rd Addition trail & the Center Street trail stub should be completed within the
next week. The base is in place, but the contractor has been waiting for some of the sections to dry out
before laying the asphalt. Included in your packet is the invoice from James R. Hill, Inc. for
surveying costs associated with the Center Street trail stub in the amount of $850.
1601 LaMotte Drive - Centerville Lake Property
After touring the property at 1601 LaMotte Drive at the last scheduled Parks & recreation Committee
meeting, the committee questioned whether the City owns the property where the pump house is
located and whether the City will be required to remove the pump house.
Mr. John Meyer, Finance Director, stated the City bought the first parcel with Park Dedication Fees
which included the house, garage and 112' of lakeshore. With the grant monies and partial Park
Dedication Fees the City will purchase the open space on the north of the house with an additional
112' of lakeshore. The City does not own the parcel the pump house sits on and the pump house will
remain the property of the St. Paul Water Utility for the time being. Mr. Meyer also stated that if at
some future time the pump house is abandoned the City will try to purchase that parcel also. The
closing is scheduled for November 21,2006 on the balance of the property.
20f3
There was an article written in the St. Paul Pioneer Press regarding the house at 1601 LaMotte Drive
being sold or tore down. The article listed the house as being sold for $1 to anyone who could move it
and prompted many inquiries to City Hall. City Council had approved a proposal from Olson Sewer
Service to raze the home, but at the October 11, 2006 City Council Meeting the City Council
postponed the work for two weeks to see if the City would get a viable proposal to move the home.
City Administrator Larson reported at the October 25, 2006 City Council Meeting that there hadn't
been any viable proposals to move the home, so the contractor will be given authorization to proceed
with demolition.
Major Capra provided some alternative names for the park along the idea of Landing or Point:
Park:
Commons
Square
Playing Field
Playground
Recreational Area
Shoreline:
Beach
Shore
Seashore
Water's Edge
Acorn Creek Park
The committee questioned whether both parcels shown on the map of Acorn Creek Park belonged to
the City as it wasn't clear where the boundaries were. I found the pin numbers for both the parcels at
Acorn Creek Park and checked the PIN numbers with the county. Both parcels are owned by the City
and there is enough room for both a parking lot and a football field.
