I will place it on the next EDC Agenda. It should be noted, however, that we currently have approximately 200 of the folders in stock which, will be used before reordering, so this will not be something that is done in the near future The City Council made a motion at the April 24, 2002 Council Meeting to retwn the $1,913 to the Centerville Lions as it was given to the City of Centerville and subsequently Parks & Recreation in error. I have talked with Rhonda Lynch at Wargo Nature Center and we will have a Registration Form to proof at the May 1, 2002 scheduled meeting. She mentioned to me that the school is usually willing to distribute flyers, but only if fees are waived for those unable to pay, or assistance is offered. The balloons and weights were located and the buttons are available to the Lions for Fete des Lacs. FYI Enclosed copies of the following: A news release from the Rice Creek Watershed regarding the new phosphorus law. Fete des Lacs Parade information and registration form.. The Wheels Park insurance claim has been paid for the stolen ramp. There is a copy of the check for the amount of $2, 194. 17.

Skate Park Attendants and the 2002 Park and Rec Budget FROM: RE: ............................................................................ The Commission is looking for an opportunity to hire a skate park attendant because of park vandall~ The staff received a copy of an e-mail that Mr. Wayne LeBlanc sent discussing his ideas of the number of hours an attendant would be needed. In reviewing the Park and Rec budget that is attached, you will find that there is a line item under programming for wages and sa1aries at $19,344.00. Originally, the City Council approved a summer intern for Parks and Rec whereby, the City would hire a student to develop a summer program and this individual's wages would be paid from this line item. Since then, the Council has rethought that idea and at this point has decided to use most of those funds in the hiring of a financial director. Also, Mr. LeBlanc indicated in his e-mail that beca1lse there was hardly an ice ~kS\fing season, that there may be sufficient monies in the budget to cover a large portion of the skate park attendant's salary. Staff's calculations indicate that there would be roughly $1,200 for an attendant's salary at this point. If the Committee would sit down and determine the number of hours a week they feel are critical to having someone at the skate park, Staff could submit that recommendation to the Council with suggestions on where to take the money :from to support this hiring. I am also checking with the Police Chief to find out which daytime hours seem to have the most caDs to the park. I hope to have that information attached to this memo, but if it is not, I will present that information at the Park and Rec meeting on May 1. Also, the issue of a shelter around the port-a-potties was brought to my attention. There is approximately $11,500 in capital improvements that might be used for this construction. Please discuss and have a recommendation for Council if this is a project that you would like to pursue. ~ Sweeney From: Sent: To: LeBl~, Wayne J (Wayne.LeBIanc@UNISYS.com] Thursday,\AprlI 04, 2002 9:53 AM 'Tom Lee~ 'de'; Unda Broussard Vickers; 'Brian Walter'; 'Kathy Pair; 'Tedd E.

Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 9:39 AM To: Wayne.LeBlanc@ONISYS.com Subject: Re: Park and Rec & Volunteer Day If my math holds up, there could be an attendant there 12 hours a day, seven days a week, through the whole skating season for about $16,128.00 That's a rate of $8.00 per hour. (good money for a young adult to hang out at the park) The ~bney that wasn't spent on the rink attendant this winter could cover a large portion of that. I think the skate park is a very nice attraction, I'd hate to see a few bad apples spoil it for the others. It's too bad there isn't something we could do to keep the trouble away. 1 :E .... Q.

Pursuant to due call and notice thereot: the Parks and Recreation Committee of the City of Centerville held the regularly scheduled meeting on April 3, 2002, at City Hall, 1880 Main Street. PRESENT: Karla DeVme Brian Walter Kathy Peil Suzanne Seeley Wayne leBlanc Tom Lee Tedd Peterson (!JJ [Ji]@~~[[@W@@] ABSENT: STAFF: None Kim Stephan COUNCIL: Linda Broussard-Vickers I. CALL TO ORDER 1. Roll Call Chairperson Ms. DeVme called the meeting to order at 6:35 p.rn. II. APPEARANCES ill. CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES Motion was made by Mr. LeBlanc, seconded by Ms. DeVme to approve '. the Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes of March 6, 2002, Ayes - 5, Nays - 0 Abstained - 2 (Lee, Peterson). Motion carried. lof8 Parks &; Recreation MeetfDg Minutes 04103/02 ~ OLD BUSINESS 1. Wargo Nature Center Summer Program Update Ms. Peil gave an update on the information she had received from Mr. Murowski, Wargo Nature Center Recreation Specialist, in regards to the Summer Park Program. A tentative schedule and guidelines were supplied to the committee for review. Mr. Murowski has a probable summer assistant so Wargo's staff shortage should not affect the amount of days available to the city. I . The sessions will be scheduled for one (1) hour from 12:00-1:00 p.rn., except for the biking/swimming activity which will remain two (2) hours from 12:00-2:00 p.rn. The programs will be scheduled each Tuesday beginning June 11, 2002 and ending August 13,2002, excluding the week of July 2. Registration will be set up through City Hall. There will be a limit of 30 children per session, if there are more than 30 children interested, Mr. Murowski. will run another session from 1 :00-2:00 p.rn. The cutoff for registration will be the Friday prior to each session. Discussion as to how to limit phone calls to City Hall and how' to most effectively roll the excess children over into the second session once the maximwn is reached. Ms. Pell will get together with Staff to determine what will work best. Open enrollment will be closed to large groups to allow the general public to take advantage of the programs. Second sessions may also be scheduled for large group registrations such as Apple Academy. The canoeing activity will be scheduled as an hour session also. There is an age limit for this activity and Anoka County needs a waiver signed for each child for both canoeing and swimming. Ms. Stephan will contact Rhonda Lynch at Wargo to get more specifics on this and additional information on each program. The activities that were selected are geared more for older kids, but because of staff limitations the programs cannot be as creative as Mr. Murowski would have liked. Because the Pond Study was so popular last year it will be offered multiple times. The cost to the city will not increase this year, but remain at $50.00 each two (2) hour program. Wargo will bill the city at the end of the season. A $2.00 minimwn fee for each child per session was decided on. Prepaid fees will be collected at the time of registration. It needs to be determined what will be the procedure if children show up at the activity without being prepaid and registered. 2of8 'AI .' Parks &: Recreation MeetiDg MiDutes 04/03/02 I The need for volunteers was discussed. It will be noted on the registration form that adult volunteers would be appreciated and parent involvement is encouraged. Volunteers are especially needed for the biking/swimming and canoeing activities. The committee discussed various ways of advertising. Mr. Lee suggested sending home information from school, but questioned whether the school would do that because of secwity reasons. Suggestions were the City Hall sign, cable, the website and possibly the local paper. Advertising should begin in May. Ms. Devine will check into advertising in the paper and Ms Pell will do a flyer announcement Council Member Capra said that the City Council was considering ,. taking out a ~ page add quarterly in the Quad and perhaps the Summer Park Program could be included. Council Member Capra added the Parks & Recreation Committee could kickoff this program by having a table at the April 27, 2002 Volunteer Recognition Day Celebratiop. which is scheduled from 10-1 :00 p.rn. at City Hall. This celebration is to show appreciation to all volunteers and their families and to help promote volunteerism within the community. It will also include an award ceremony. Ms. Devine will need to let Council Member Capra know if Mr. Porter will be presented with his recognition plaque at the award ceremony on April 27, 2002. Council Member Capra would like the Parks and Recreation Committee to be involved. Motion was made by Ms. Peil, seconded by Mr. LeBlanc to accept the Wargo Nature Center Summer Park Program as laid out by Mr. Murowski and charge a $2.00 prepaid fee per child. All in favor: Motion earried Unanimously. Council Member Capra questioned where the balloons and balloon weights went after the Fete des Lacs Festival. She would like to locate these for the Volunteer Recognition Celebration. Ms. Peil asked if staff had received her e-mail requesting the remaining buttons for Fete des Lacs. Ms. Stephan will check on these supplies. COlmcil Member Capra reported the City of V'llinai~ Heights has a 'Party Trailer' to rent to residents for a nominal fee, which includes tables, chairs and grills and suggested perhaps Parks and Recreation would like to do something like that in the future. Mr. Peterson will locate the Parks and Recreation banner. 3of8 Parks" Recreation MeetiDg Minutes 04/03/02 2. Fund RaisinglLittle League - Concessions at Laurie LaMotte Park The Lion's Branch Club volunteered to sell concessions at Lamie LaMotte Park during Little League games 3 days per week. There are games 4 nights per week. Ms. DeVme requested committee members consider selling concessions the additional day. Mr. Lee said it was a possibility for him, but the other committee members were otherwise committed. The games are scheduled from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. and the Lion's Branch Club would open the stand at 6:00 p.m. Mr. Walters reported there is not a schedule published as of yet, but the games start Monday, . May 4th. Discussion was held as to what percentage of the profits would be donated back to the city. Council Member Vickers suggested 50% in following charitable gambling currently being run by Dead Broke Saddle Club and the Spring Lake Park Lions. Ms. Devine suggested on the nights the Branch Club runs the concession stand they would donate 20% of the profits to Parks and Recreation and if committee members opt to run the stand on the additional night the Branch Club would then increase the percentage for that night Council Member Broussard-Vickers stated that council will want reporting that profits are used in community, either going to Parks and Recreation or another community fimction. There was discussion as to asking Little League if they were interested in the additional night, but the consensus was it would become too complicated involving Little League. Mr. Peterson was concerned about clean up issues and who would have keys. Ms. De Vme said the Branch Club would ensure cleanup took place and they would only require one (1) key and would share it Motion was made by Mr. Lee, seconded by Mr. Walter to recommend to the City Council that the Centerville Lion's Branch Club run concessions at Laurie LaMotte Park during Little League games donating 20% of the proceeds to the Parks and Recreation Committee. Ayes - 5, Nays - 0, Abstain - 2 (De Vme, Pei.l}o Motion carried. ~ 3. Enclosures for Satellites Discussion as to how much money was actually in the capitol improvement account and is this where the money for the satellite enclosures would come from. The financials show $11,500 currently in this account. Council Member Broussard-Vickers reported that anything in capital improvement would not 4of8 Parks & Recrealion Meeting Minutes 04/03/02 necessarily be approved as the city may have an unexpected expendinn-e, and the summer intern money will probably be used to upgrade the computers in the office as they are beginning to have serious problems. More information will be available by the next scheduled meeting. Ms. Stephan will get clarification on the financial reports as they are not easily understood. Ms. DeVme said that the committee had Previously considered and rejected the idea of preformed satellite enclosures. Mr. Walters will get accurate measurements and figures for .the price of enclosures. Discussion as to whether Acorn Creek Park: will be done in same place as last year? Mr. Peterson reported they all have . to be done the same or not at all. Mr. Peterson also reported Public Works has only ordered 4 satellites this year because of the dRmRge done to Royal Meadow Park: last year, there will not be a satellite there this year. There will not be any picnic tables at Royal Meadows Park either because of the damage done. Mr. Peterson will price auger rental and get a concrete estimate to report at the next meeting. Ms. DeVme suggested a spring tour of the parks as a group to familiarize Ms. Seeley with the parks and check out situating for satellites. It was decide to meet on April 27, 2002 at 8:30 a.m. at Acorn Creek Park. This will be prior to the Volunteer Recognition Celebration. 4. Trail Grants (Update) DNR Grant Discussion was held as to when/how the committee should start looking into grants for 2003, as it is too late for this year. Ms. DeVme would like to see the money that is being collected from the Spring Lake Park Lion's charitable gambling to be used as a matching grant This fall the committee will meet with City Admini~trator Ms. Moore-Sykes to pursue grant options. 5. The Shores Trail (Update) CenterviUe 4-Lane Highway Mr. leBlanc sent all committee members e-mail on his findings with Anoka County. The 4-lane highway is coming through and the chances of stopping it are zero. Mr. leBlanc reported the Highway Department did not know about The Shores, but they do now. The amount of easement The Shores is going to dedicate is already adequate. Counc.il Member Broussard-Vickers said the City Council is setting up meetings to try and have some input and that the cost of acquisition will determine where exactly the road will go. Anoka County representative John 5of8 Parks & Recreation Meeting Minutes 04/03/02 Olson had made promises that they wouldn't proceed on this without input from city, but they did. Council Member Broussard Vickers . suggested the committee . give some thought to having The Shores developers give the money to Parks and Recreation for the cost of the trail in lieu of the trail. The city would use engineers and county standards to determine specs and this would then go into the developer's agreement Mr. Peterson questioned as to when the park dedication fee would increase and would Parks and Recreation receive those fees or would they go into the general fund? Council Member Vickers reported Pheasant Marsh dedication fees are at $1,800, but Phase n will be at the new rate of $3,000. It is uncertain at this time where these monies will go. Motion was made by Ms. PeU, seconded by Mr. Lee to recommend to City Council to accept monies in lieu of a trail. Motion earried unanimously. 6. Bonestroo Trail Maps (Update) Mr. Peterson was unable to reach Ms. Scheller from the EDC committee, but Ms. Stephan include the request for the EDC Committee to consider publishing the trail maps in the New Resident Packet on the April 16, 2002 EDC Agenda. Mr. Peterson will get the maps to Ms. Stephan. 7. Spring Lake Park Lion's Donation Council Member Broussard-Vickers informed the committee that the Spring Lake Park Lion's donation would be returned to the Lions as it had been given to the City of Centerville in error. Also reported was the discussion at the last council meeting directing the Lions to set up some other type of fund where they could direct the contributions from charitable gambling to, as the council prefers it no longer come through the city. The Lion's intent was that the money be used for a Park Shelter/Concession Stand, but the City Council does not have to use it for that pwpose. While the City Attorney said it would be good politics to follow the wishes of the Lions, it is not necessary to do so. Mr. Peterson presented plans and ideas for a play structure at Lamie LaMotte Park and would like to pursue charitable gambling :funds as a way of financing the play structure. Mr. Peterson's estimAtp. for the play equipment is $22,700. There is currently $26,000 from the 6of8 '" Parks &; Recreation MIleIDJg Minutes 04/03/02 Spring Lake Park Lion's charitable gambling donations and Parks and Recreation could also apply for this money. Council Member Vickers also suggested contacting the Dead Broke Saddle Club. Mr. Peterson will pursue how to apply for fimds. Some discussion as to where the play structure would be situated There would need to be netting over it to protect it from the fields. Ms. De Vme asked Mr. Peterson to figme out fall zones for room, perhaps using Royal Meadows as an example. Ms. DeVme suggested leaving the $26,000 alone to use for matching grants this fall. 8. Goetz Landscaping Tree Payment (Update) Ms. Stephan informed the committee that Mr. Goetz had over billed the city and that a refund would be forthcoming. The money will be placed back into the account the trees were paid for from. ~ NEW BUSINESS 1. Wheels Skate Park for Upcoming Year Lengthy discussion was held as to the best way to prevent problems at the Wheels Skate Park in the upcoming season. There are concerns with hiring attendants such as; is there money in the budget, what hours are the most important to cover, can enough people be hired, will teenagers be able to handle the problems that were occurring last year? More police patrols are desirable, but not practical. It was suggested that there be age restrictions or limited hours for specific age groups, such as 1-4:00 p.rn. reserved for younger children, but the problem would be in enforcing it. Mr. Peterson questioned who would hire and superviSe the rink attendants and what were the chances of finding adults for the position? In looking at the financial statements supplied to the committee it was \Dlclear as to which line item applied to the attendants. Ms. Stephan will get additional information on this item for the next scheduled meeting. Council Member Broussard-Vickers questioned whether anyone had talked to the police department about their feelings towards the skate park? Mr. Peterson said that Chief Heckman would prefer Centerville did not have a skate park as it has caused so many problems. The police don't have the time, fimds or desire to give any more support. Council Member Broussard-Vickers asked the committee if they could get $20,000 by selling it the equipment and if the money would go back into a park fund opposed 7of8 "'" , Parks" Rec:reatioQ Meeting Minutes 04/03/02 to the general fimd, would the committee sell the equipment? The committee agrees the city cannot go the entire year with problems such as last year and the rules should be clear from the beginning, any incidents and the ramps will be sold, closing the park Council Member Broussard-Vickers suggested putting out the equipment, posting signs with clear expectations, not hiring attendants, but solicit adult/parental vobmteers and give the park: a trial month. Mr. Peterson said after the equipment was removed this fall hockey players used the rink extensively and there was never a problem. Perhaps put some of the ramps out and leave the hockey roller bladers on the south end, with a separation net. It was suggested to open the park for mon~ evaluate after the month and if there are problems, sell it. " Mr. LeBlanc suggested adult vobmteers instead ot: or in addition to an attendant. Ms. Stephan said utility bills were going out in the following week and a flyer requesting volunteers could be included. The committee decided to try this and evaluate at the next meeting, including in the flyer that if enough volunteers were not fomd the opening of the park may be delayed. The hours decided on are 8 a.m. to 8 p.rn.. Discussion as to why Lino Lakes doesn't have problems with their skate park and why the small group of people who are causing the problems can't be caught instead of allowing them to ruin it for everyone. Council Member Broussard-Vickers said she would support the money staying in Parks and Recreation if equipment is sold. Mr. Walter said the rink will get a lot of use as a cement rink, so the surface would be utilized. The skate park: opening will not be determined until the next scheduled meeting. Motion was made by Ms. Peil, seconded by Ms. Seeley, to adjourn the April 3, 2002 Parks and recreation Meeting at 9:16 p.m. AU in Favor: Motion carried Unanimously SofS ~~~,,~L~ ---=-~ ----~'-"j From to 4298629 at 4/24/02 11:00 AM Pg 001/003 , TRANSMISSION RICE ClEEK I' WATERSHED .

Pg 002/003 Minnesota Department of Agriculture 90 West Plato Boulevard St Paul, l\.finnesota 5 S 107 (651) 297-1629 News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Friday, .L\.pril19. 2002 Contacts: Michael Schommer, Communications Director, 651-297-1629 Jerry Spetzman, Water Quality Advisor, 6S 1-297-7269 MDA says new phosphorous law is good news for MDm.esota lakes and streams ST. PAUL, Minn. - The future is looking a bit clearer for Minnesota's 10,000 lakes today after governor Jesse Ventura signed into law a bill restricting the use of phosphorus fertilizer in Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington Counties and setting a 3 percent (by weight) limit outside the metro area. Phosphorus is an important nutrient for plant growth, but soils in many parts of the state already have an abundance of it. When excess phosphoms is applied to soil, it can wash off into nearby lakes, streams and rivers where it accelerates algae growth. Excessive algae growth dimini!ilbes water quality and can cause problems for fish and other aquatic life. The new law is designed to reduce unnecessary use of the nutrient, but it provides exemptions for farm land and golf courses. It also allows phosphorus to be applied to new sod and to phosphorus-deficient soils. The rv1innesola Department of Agriculture (MDA) regulates fertilizer sales and use. As such, the l\.IDA worked closely with lawmakers and interest groups for the past three years to develop sensible phosphorus legislation. Given the clear benefIts of reducing unnecessary phosphorus use, . MDA Commissioner Gene Hugoson said the new phosphorus law is good news for the entire state. . "This new law is the result of several years of work on this issue," Commissioner Hugoson said "Several years ago, we put together a program in south Minneapolis to build awareness of phosphorus issues among homeowners near Lake Hmiet. We had encouraging results, and this law extends the benefits statewide." \Vhile the phosphorus law will help boost water quality, there are many other lawn care practices homeowners can take to reduce phosphorus runoff into lakes and streams. Yard materials such as soil, tree leaves, grass clippings and pet -waste are other major sources of phosphorous. When these materials move off the landscape and onto streets or driveways, they can be washed into storm drains that lead directly to nearby lakes or streams. The MDA says the following practices can help keep Minnesota~s lawns and lakes healthy: Keep storm drains clear and do not rake lawn debris onto the street; Sweep. up sand for reuse or contact your citY for proper disposal; Direct water from downspouts onto your lawn and away from the house and paved surfaces~ Mow high and often, keep mowing height between 2~ and 311z inches; _ When mowing, discharge grass clippings into the lawn and away from paved surfaces; Sweep up any grass clippings that land on sidewalks, driveways or other hard surfaces; Reseed bare spots in your la"'"D and keep seeded areas moist for tbree to four weeks; .,..., , Fete des Lacs Parade Sponsored by the "City of Centerville" Saturday, August 3, 2002 at 10:00 a.m. Centerville, MN , This year's theme: "Let Freedom Ring" *Last year was a great success; help make this year even better! *Free Advertising - Huge Audience *DonationsVVclcollle *Awards - Theme, Non Theme, and "Best of the Besf' *Fun & Laughter for everyone *Prolllote tealll spirit within your business, neighborhood and/or committee *Creativity encouraged Relrlstrations must be received no later than Julv 19. 2002 Mail the enclosed registration form to: John N.

Today I spoke with Alice Jacobs a comp1ian~ specialist with the Minnesota Gambling ~ Control Board. According to Ms. Jacobs the city will need to review and correct the . wording in its ordinance. Under Section 4. Profit~ we need to state the trade area in . ~..~... which ~e 50% profits ~ be used for la~ purpo~s. Base~ on !he ~t that we have % ~ 0.:.,., an ordinance we have to mclude the coDlDlDDity ofLmo Lakes m this ordinance. ". . ~ ~ ~ We also should only be receiving a payment of 10% to the city based on Minnesota ,,~ II( J~I{ .f, Statue and this amount has restrictions on how it can be used. Please refer to the attach~.~ .wr . information. .' ~ ~ pt*. Ms. Jacobs stated we cannot disburse monies to the Centerville Lions Club and directed ~ me to the Gaming News issue for December 2001 for examples of issues regarding problems with doing.so. She will hopefully fax to the city further information regarding funds and local Lions Club OrganirJltion issues to be concerned about regarding the same. Ms. Jacobs stated ~e have the right to request from the Spring Lake Parks Lions Organi7J1t1on and the Dead Broke Saddle Club their" Schedule A" which is submitted monthly to the MinnesOta Department of Revenue. This form includes all profits from the establishment such as Kelly's, Trio or WISe Guys. In addition we can request a "Schedule CID" which is sent to the Minnesota Gambling Control Board. This form will show all disbursement of the 50% profit funds disbursed by these organizations. Please note if no disbursements had been made in a given month no form would be submitted. After spt'SIking with Ms. Jacobs I personally believe we need to further investigate this rl1a1:ter before taking any action regarding this money and we need to amend our ordinance. I would also like to request the above-mentioned information for review from all parties operating charitable gambling with the City of Centerville. . ..
