III. APPEARANCES
Mr. Mark Statz, Citv Engineer - Update 2010 Trail & Park Proiect
Mr. Mark Statz, City Engineer was in attendance to update the committee on the progress of the
Trail/Park Project scheduled to begin in 2010. Mr. Statz gave the new committee members a brief
1 of 8
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes 03-03-10
overview of the project as well as answered questions from Mr. Wilharber and Sonya Murray
regarding how the park may affect the abutting St. Genevieve property. Mr. Statz stated they are
within days of submitting the project to MNDOT. This project has been in the works for over a year
and was rushed through last spring in the hopes of qualifying for stimulus funding, which did not
come through, but the planning continued as part of the MNDOT Federal Grant. The City has been
acquiring easements, which is a lengthy process, but as that portion is completed the project will be
ready to go out for bids. The committee discussed the cost estimate which is just for the two parks
and only a portion of the entire project. Previously the committee had opted to remove the kiosk,
which would be a trailhead map area and the pergola as the price estimates were too high. The
committee felt there could be a less expensive option for the kiosk. There was space left in the plan
for a future pergola. Also removed were pedestrian lights (3) along the trail. Mayor Capra
questioned leaving the pergola and kiosk in the bidding process as alternates and the committee agreed
that would be a good idea. Mr. Statz will add these items as alternates.
Mr. Statz went over some of the features; the main focus will be the circle fountain, the concrete
surrounding the fountain will be colored with one foot sections of exposed aggregate or textured
concrete between the circles. The water from the fountain will flow towards the perimeter and be
pumped back into the fountain. The electrical for the fountain will be located south west of fountain
amongst some plantings. In the design plan labeled L504 in the upper right hand corner detail is
shown of the curbing around the exterior of the fountain, it will be sandblasted and kept wavy with the
intention of keeping skate boarders off the surface. It will also be posted as No Skate Boarding. The
words `May Peace Prevail on Earth' in multiple languages will be added as inserts into the
surrounding concrete walk (L402) instead of actually engraving the granite centerpiece. It was
questioned whether the fountain would run 24/7 and Mr. Statz said it would be on a timer. A concern
also was the depth of the water and whether it would be a hazard to children. Mr. Statz stated the
floor of the fountain will be sloped, so that there will be no pooling.
There is a grassy area to the west which originally the landscape engineer proposed planting a low
grow, low mow mixture of grass, but the committee would prefer regular grass. It is a fairly small
piece as far as mowing is concerned and the committee would like to make it look as nice as possible.
Also briefly discussed were benches, bike racks, trash receptacles and plantings. A drinking fountain
is in the plan located east of where the pergola would be located. The committee discussed the variety
of trees being planted and benefits of each. Mr. Statz stated some of the larger ones are proposed to
get an overhead canopy so the fountain doesn't look so big. Mr. Johnson suggested Birch or Locust
to get more of a see through effect.
Mr. Statz stated the project should be out for bids and ready for construction by the end of July.
Mr. Wilharber, as a trustee of St. Genevieve stated one of the things the parish is concerned about is
that the church's sign will be blocked by the founta.in and by the future development of trees. Mr.
Wilharber commented the Church Trustees would have liked to have had input from the beginning of
the project, but moving forward they would like the committee to be mindful of the sign and perhaps
consider moving it. The committee had previously discussed this item and as the project progresses
there is a probability the sign will be moved. There is now a signed easement agreement between the
church and the City for a trail easement for land on east side of the church property with the City
providing the church with some funding for plantings along that trail to construct screening. This trail
does not involve the parks, but will connect to it. The church's annual dinner is in August and Mr.
Wilharber would like to request that there is no construction equipment left in the area during that day.

Meeting Minutes 03-03-10
Mr. Statz stated he would ensure construction is worked around that area to eliminate any problems
with the chicken dinner.
Mr. Wilharber voiced one concern as a citizen; what does the big picture look like to the general
public with the City borrowing $4Q0,000 against future park dedication fees to use as the matching
portion of this grant when we know what the future is looking like for development. Mayor Capra
assured Mr. Wilharber that this has been discussed by City Council. She stated the $750,000 grant
that was received has been applied for years and while this may not be the best time to do this project,
if we lose these monies they will not be available to us again. The parks are only about 15% of the
total project which will connect many trails throughout Centerville.
Included in the packet was the latest Sidewalk & Trail Map prepared bry Bonestroo and proofed by Public
Works Staff. This includes the trail and park additions for 2010. A black & white version is going in the 2010 —
2011 Business Directory so the `future' part of the trails was removed and the parks were named. City Council
approved the naming of Trailside and Cornerstone Parks.
Mr. Wilharber reported as he was picking up trash along the trail next to his property he noticed the
trail is breaking up pretty badly from tree roots and was hoping this could be looked at and worked
into our maintenance plan. Ms. Stephan will pass this on to Public Works. '
Mr. Tom Lee, 2010 Fete des Lacs Parade/8K Run and Music in the Parks Pro�ram I�,
Mr. Lee was unable to attend the meeting but relayed to the committee the foilowing via speaker
phone: ,
Mr. Lee stated he needs to get feedback from Mayor Capra and City Council regarding the paid
participants for the parade before making a decision as to whether he is organizing the parade this year
or not. Historically, participants have been paid at step off, this guarantees a performance. Last year I
we didn't make it to step off because of the rain, but all of the participants wanted to be paid anyway. '
As that wasn't the agreement, Mr. Lee did not pay them. Now, to get them to commit, the agreement
would have to be made in advance to get paid regardless of if they perform or not. Without the paid �,
participants, the parade will be pretty small, but Mr. Lee would like City Council to make the decision
as he would rather not decide to spend $5,000 of t�payer money for what could be a short parade and
the only event for the day. Mr. Lee feels the money would be much better spent by the Parks &
Recreation Committee, spread out over maybe a dozen evenings through out June, July and August,
rather than in 45 minutes on one Saturday morning.
He also said we need to talk about volunteers for the 8K Run, even if we don't do the parade. He felt
it would be so much easier to focus on one event.
Mr. Keiselhorst and Mr. Johnson were present to talk about Fete des Lacs, what the Centerville Lions
were doing this year and how that affects the 8K Run. Mr. Keiselhorst stated the City for many years
funded the fireworks, free kids rides, advertising and a good portion of all rentals, big hockey rink
tent, stage, lights, business expo tent, porta-pots, tables, chairs and sound for the Battle of the Teen
Bands. With City funds unavailable, and years of declining business donations, the following events
will not be hosted by the Lion's Club this year: Business Expo/Craft Show, Fireworks, Free Battle of
the Teen Bands, Medallion Hunt, Free Kids Rides on Saturday, Friday Night Street Dance, Free
Lorenz Dance Show, Free USA Karate Demo Show, Lion's Car Show, Free Big Band Music on
3 of 8

Meeting Minutes 03-03-10
Sunday. The Lions will host and pay for on their own, the Annual Softball Tournament and Street
Dance. There will still be a hockey rink tent with stage, sound and lights, porta-pots, tables and chairs;
but on a smaller scale. The Lion's Club will still be doing concessions throughout the weekend, but
the weekend will not be the traditional Fete des Lacs weekend, but instead the weekend prior (July 30,
31 & August 1).
Discussion was had as to considering moving the parade to the same weekend as the Lion's events,
canceling the parade or continue to have the parade the traditional weekend with the 8K Run. Mayor
Capra said she was open to moving the parade to a different date or having it August 7�', but felt there
would be a lot of disappointed people with no parade. Mayor Capra said she would speak with Mr.
Lee about possible event insurance. Committee Member Gral�ek felt the City should not pre-pay
anyone. The consensus of the committee was to try and move the parade to the same day as the
Lion's events (Saturday, July 31 St ) and have the 8K Run alone on August 7�'.
IV. CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES
Februarv 3, 2010 Parks & Recreation Committee Meetin� Minutes

V. COMMITTEE BUSINESS �
i
Schwan's Suaer Rink � Skate Nights I
I
Ms. Stephan provided the committee with a copy of the complete contract from the Minnesota I
Amateur Sports Commission regarding the National Sports Center/Schwan's Super Rink and the City !
of Centerville. The Special Terms for Scheduling Rights for the Centennial Cities is on page 3. The �
City has an opportunity to have one free skating event scheduled some time each fall and an additional �
48 passes to use how we chose. We currently have 32 free passes at City Hall, probably from 2006. �
Ms. Stephan emailed Mr. Pete Carlson, Director of Operations and Programming, to ask him how to
proceed with scheduling an ice event and requested 48 passes each for 2009 & 2010. He responded
with the fol�owing:
That works for us. I will send over more skate passes. To have an event this fall, we would need an
ice request March 2010. We are working on fall 2010 as we speak. The only thing you have to do is
let me know what date and time you would like to skate. I suggest you give me three dates that work
for you. I will do my best to fit you in to one of them. Once we get a date and time set we can discuss
what you want to do. The ice time is free. If you want to add hot chocolate and cookies there a
charge for that. Let me know what you are thinking after your meeting.
The Parks & Recreation Committee needs to pick 3 dates for a skating event in the fall of 2010
so they can be submitted to Mr. Carlson and determine how the free passes could be distributed.
After discussion the committee requested Ms. Stephan request one of the following Saturday dates for
a Centerville Skate Night; September 11, 18 or 25, 2010, preferably between noon and 7:00 p.m.

Meeting Minutes 03-03-10
Music in the Parks Pro�ram
Ms. Stephan received the following email correspondence from Ms. Kathi LaValle. She is
unable to attend this meeting, but wanted her request brought to the committee for discussion.
Does Centerville plan to offer music in the park again this year? I play with the Centennial
Communiry Band, which is 35 member concert band in Circle Pines and they have asked me to
contact you about performing a concert. Would this be a possibility? The Centennial Communiry
Band plays classical concert music. I am not sure about how they would fit. The leader asked me to
check with you. They usually play parks for about $300 to be donated to the fund that goes for buying
additional percussion instruments, or music. We've played at Blaine Ciry Hall Park a couple of times
for that amount. (But I think they would play for less) It's really a very good band. Maybe they would
have to set up in the parking lot? It may not work. Let me know what you think...I can ask the band
leader.
The committee is interested in this option as well as the other bands affiliated with Ms. LaValle that
played in the parks last year. They would like Ms. LaValle to attend the next meeting if possible to
discuss dates, bands, availability and costs.
The committee would like to use the $1,500 donation from American Family Insurance for the Music
in the Parks Program in 2010. '
�
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Selander to i
recommend to City Council fund the 2010 Music in the Park Program with the $1,500 donation �,
received from American Family Insurance. All in Favor. Motion carried unanimously. I

i
Chairperson Branch requested this item be tabled until the next scheduled Parks & Recreation '�
Committee Meeting. �
Discussion of History of Parks (Future Developments, Plans, Additions, Park Overview) I
This item was tabled due to the length of the meeting.
VI. UPDATES
Review of Skate Nights
The committee felt the Skate Nights went very well and were well attended. All comments received
were favorable about the event. The committee would like to continue this as a yearly event.
2010 � 8K Run
Update from Chairperson Branch via email:
Mr. Allen, Vacation Sports has sent a request to Mr. Dallas Larson, City Administrator, for the use of
the trails and Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Warming House for March 20, 2010 to hold a spring

run. Scheduling a new run in less than a month's time will be difficult, but if they can get the proper
permits and approvals necessary, I would support their request. It would also be an opportunity to
promote Centerville's 8K by adding fliers to their goodie bags.
Flea Market / Cleanup Davs
The only update Committee Member Seeley had was that she had contacted the Master Gardner
Program and while she had not received a confirmation at this time, she was confident that one or two
Master Gardeners will be present.
Sand Vollev Ball Court at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park
Included in the packet was a Centerville Project Requirements Form -Volleyball Court,
PRELIMINARY document prepared by Committee Member Haiden.
The following input was from Committee Member Haiden via email.
It should be noted that it appears that there is not enough room fo� the volleyball court between the
play area and the recreation skating rink. I have outlined a few other possible places for it in this ,
document. �'
Per input from Mr. Tedd Peterson, Public Works on page 2 of the PDF it is marked with an X in the
areas the volleyball court would not work because of existing soccer fields. The one area where it
may work size-wise is marked WET as Mr. Peterson stated this area is low and always wet. ,
The following input is from Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works Director, after reviewing the
documents submitted by Committee Member Haiden:
After reviewing the proposed sites, I think consideration of locating the volleyball court at Tracie
McBride Memorial McBride or Acorn Park should be researched. Tracie McBride Memorial Park
has drinking fountains and lots of room.
The committee will continue to keep this item on the agenda for review, possibly moving it to Tracie
McBride Memorial Park. While there is room for the volley ball court at Acorn Creek Park, there is
no parking. Parking for this park may want ta be looked at in the future also.
Liebel Pronertv on Main Street (Caura)
Mayor Capra stated she has been doing research with the Minnesota Archeological Society and has
contacted an attorney who does work with casinos and may be able to offer help depending on the
identity of the tribe(s) located in the Centerville area. Mayor Capra said this is a work in progress and
she will keep the committee informed
Bald Eagle Water Ski Club & Trimmins/Brushins Trailside Park
Mr. Da11as Larson requested and received permission from St. Paul Water Utility to brush and trim the
lakeshore per request of Mr. Mark Spitzmueller, Bald Eagle Water Ski Club and the Parks & Recreation
Committee. This was necessary because while the City owns the park property, St. Paul Water Utility retains
the lakeshore. Public Works brushed and trimmed trees the week of February 22, 2010 and volunteers from
6of8
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes 03-03-10
Parks & Recreation and Bald Eagle Water Ski Club hauled all the brush off the lake and placed in piles near the
trail on Saturday, February 27, 2010. Public Works will then chip it.
Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works Director sent the following concern via email: There is a concern about
clearing the brush and trees in the area of the manhole and sanitary line along the lake in the park. The line is
less than ten feet from the lake and if the shoreline erodes any farther, it may affect the sewer line.
Mr. Tedd Peterson, Public Works, Mr. Mark Spitzmueller, Bald Eagle �Nater Ski Club, and Ms. Stephan
discussed the issue of tl�e sewer line, as well as erosion of the bank. The trees will not be removed, but were
trimmed up as far as possible. The stabilization of this bank should also be addressed. Mr. Peterson suggested
rip rap when the park is being developed and requested the committee discuss this with Mr. Statz, City
Engineer.
Vice-Chairperson Grahek reported he worked with Bald Eagle Water Ski Club Members and they
questioned whether we can trim private property with awner's permission, such as the rental property
abutting the park. Mr. Spitzmueller's concern is the approach for the skiers is not smooth right now;
if they wanted to get closer they would have to come in really sharp. Committee Member Grahek
talked to Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works who said Public Works cannot trim on private property, even
with the property owner's permission. Perhaps the Ba1d Eagle Water Ski Club members could
approach the property oumer regarding this. Mayor Capra was concerned about the Ski Club's
jump/ramp sitting right in the middle of what would otherwise be a very nice view. It was mentioned
the jump is mobile, to a certain extent.
Movies in Park
Committee Member Peterson asked to have this put on the agenda to get direction from the committee
as to whether he should continue to research this item as something the committee would like to offer
either as a free park program or possibly a fund raiser for the committee. Committee Member '
Peterson stated rental of the equipment could be up to $2,000, but felt there were other options that
would work and be more economical. It was the consensus of the committee to have Committee
member Peterson investigate other options and while the committee probably could not charge for the
event due to copy right issues, it would be possible to have a`free will offering' or perhaps sell
popcorn.
Accelerator Plav Epuipment Recall
Mr. Tedd Peterson, Public Works found the Accelerator Play Equipment being offered through the
current catalog. This equipment was recalled due to a safety issue. Ms. Stephan contacted Mr. Harlan
Lehman, Minnesota Wisconsin Playground, Inc., the salesperson for the equipment questioning: why
is this still being offered if it was recalled? We are not happy with the piece of equipment as it is
because it was altered from something the children used and enjoyed to something that is not what we
ordered or intended for that playground, it is now basically a pole. We were not compensated for the
change and feel the quality is less than we purchased. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Through multiple discussions it was determined the new version of the Accelerator Play Equipment
will be shipped to the City free of charge and Public Works will install it.

VII. FINANCIALS
Included in the packet was a Proposed Amended Budget provided by Mr. Mike Jeziorski,
Finance Director with input from Chairperson Branch.
Email update per Mr. Jeziorski:
I am also tracking other various budget amendments throughout the general fund budget so once
there is a good enough number we will put it before Council for approval- probably after Ist quarter
in April.
Grants to finance upgrades to certain little league parks - I have not had much luck fanding anything
to this point, but I will continue to look as time allows.
As for a grant for the Liebel property we expect that Met Council will have a grant solicitation very
shortly for enhancement grants. We will continue to watch for the solicitation, which would likely be
for 2013 or 2014 funding.

TO: Parks and Recreation Committee Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
SUBJECT: Committee Business
DATE: Apri11, 2010
Music in the Park
In 2009 the committee had a budget of $1,000 for the Music in the Parks Program and did 4
consecutive Tuesday evening performances. For 2010 the budget is $1,500 which would mean offer
more performances or pay the performers more. I suggested to Ms. LaValle the idea that the program �
would be possibly 6 weeks running into the first 2 weeks of August. Ms. LaValle offered two potential I
dates: �
�
BBB Jazz Combo would like to play Tuesday, July 20�` (That is their only available Tuesday and they
also enjoyed playing last year. If that works, that would be great.) i
The 7 Cats Swing is available Tuesday, August l O (I hope you will hold that one for us. We played
over at Chauncey Barret Gardens for their Valentines pot luck, and they are hoping to see us again.)
Consider the following from Ms. LaValle:
i
i
Does Centerville plan to offer music in the park again this year? I play with the Centennial i,
Community Band, which is 35 member concert band in Circle Pines and they have asked me to contact ',
you about performing a concert. Would this be a possibility? The Centennial Community Band plays '
classical concert music. I am not sure about how they would fit. The leader asked me to check with
you. They usually play parks for about $300 to be donated to the fund that goes for buying additional
percussion instruments, or music. We've played at Blaine City Hall Park a couple of times for that
amount. (But I think they would play for less) It's reaZly a very good band. Maybe they would have to
set up in the parking lot? It may not work. Let me know what you think... i can ask the band leader.
Also correspondence from Mr. Tom Lee regarding Music in the Parks:
BRETHREN would be willing to perform some classic rock covers, but we'd want to play at least for a
few hours, just too much gear to move around for a couple short sets. IdeaZdy, it'd be dark out, so we
could bring our light show. And in place of payment, we'd want P&R to host another BBQ or how
about an Ice Cream Social?
My friend's blues band might be interested, depends on the schedude, but they'd want to get paid,
pro8ably like �400. There are a couple of teen bands that I think are decent, which are ALWAYS
looking for a place to let them play and since there won't be a Battle of the Bands for them this year
this could be an option. And I might be wilding to do another solo thing (for free), if I'm needed to fall
out the schedule, but again, P&R would have to do something with the money they would have �aid
me.
My vision for Music in the Parks would be to present a different musical genre (roc� soul, country,
blues, metal, swing, bluegrass, pop and classical) every week, all summer long.

Earth Dav Activitv, Saturdav, Auri118, 2009
The Committee will meet on Saturday, April 18, 2009 at 9:00 a.m. at City Hall to cleanup local parks.
Garbage bags and latex gloves will be provide to participants. Ms. Stephan will post information on
the web site and on the City sign.
Satellites in t6e Parks
With budget cuts and attempts to eliminate items that are not essential, Mr. Paul Palzer, the Public
Works Director, requested the committee look at whether something different could be done with the
sa.tellites currently in 4 of the parks (Eagle Park, Tracie McBride Memorial Park, Laurie LaMotte
Memorial Park and Acorn Creek Park) for 7 months of the year. Each satellite costs $230 per month.
This would be $1,610 per park, $6440 for the 7 month period. Mr. Palzer and myself discussed the
number of complaint ca11s received last year regarding satellites and they were all for Laurie LaMotte
Memorial Pazk. We need to either have an additional satellite at this park, or ha.ve it cleaned twice per
week opposed to once. An additional cleaning per week is $25. What we are proposing is to eliminate
two of the sateliites (Eagle, Acom) as these are sma11 neighborhood parks, and add an additional
cleaning for the satellite at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park. 'The additional cleaning would be
approximately $700, saving $2,500. One additional concern is Eagle Park has tennis courts, we may
not be able to eliminate tlus satellite.
Also discussed was the possibility of having the restrooms at the wazming house opened during Little
League hours, either by the coaches or the possibility of the concession stand being open.
Concession Stand / RaisinE Funds for Parks & Recreatioa
Mr. Palzer suggested the committee look at opening the concession stand as a means of raising funds
for Parks & Recreation. It has been done in the past having the warming hause concession stand open
for the months and hours of Littie League when there are a lot of people in the park. Hot dogs, pop,
water, candy, pop corn could be sold ta prafit the committee projects.
Fete des Lacs Parade / Activities Cancelled bv Centerville Lions ��

FROM: Kim Stephan
SUBJECT: Committee Business & Updates
DATE: April l, 2010
The following information is provided by Mr. Mark Statz, City Engineer:
I will not be attending the Parks & Recreation Committee meeting, but please ha.ve the committee
review the attached sketch of the proposed pergola with sandblasted concrete posts to match the '
treatment of the sidewalks and fountain curb. The only thing they are looking at here is whether or not
they are OK with the concrete posts (four corner posts). Other choices would be steel (more I
expensive, more maintenance) or timber (susceptible to vandals). This design would be our
recommendation, but we aze open to whatever the committee may suggest.
