51 Brokke stated he knows Parks and Recreation are highly valued by the community. Legislative <br />52 action would be needed to become a Park Board. Stoner said he thought having a Park Board <br />53 would be an advantage for, after Brokke retires, filling the Parks and Recreation Director <br />54 position. <br />55 <br />56 Gelbach suggested that having a position paper on the Park Board would be helpful. Other <br />57 commissioners agreed that would help them in looking more closely at the advantages and any <br />58 disadvantages of forming a Board. Gelbach will meet with some of the commissioners and <br />59 Brokke to write the position paper. This will be presented at the May meeting. <br />60 <br />61 7. RENEWAL PROGRAM <br />62 Brokke gave a short update on the park renewal program. There are eleven packages with the <br />63 program: Tennis courts, Lighting, Irrigation, Disc Golf, Field improvements, Shelters - Buildings <br />64 and Site improvements, Bridges and Boardwalks, Sidewalks, Natural Resources, Nature Center <br />65 and Skating Center. We are using the Best Value method with the renewal program. Brokke <br />66 noted that some costs are coming in over budget so some of the projects will need to be adjusted. <br />67 <br />68 The new park buildings are a cornerstone of the renewal so maintaining the size and quality of <br />69 those buildings will be a high priority to meet community expectations. Brokke said discussions <br />70 are occurring with the apparent Best Value building contractor, discussing details of their <br />71 proposals. <br />72 <br />73 Staff reviewed the overall Renewal Program and described a preferred approach to make <br />74 adjustments in the program due to budget amounts. For example, remodeling work on the Central <br />75 Park picnic shelters will be scaled back but upgrades will still be done. The new building at <br />76 Sandcastle Park can be built on its present site, to reduce utility costs. The Central Park Lexington <br />77 plans can be adjusted or done later. Rink improvements may be delayed. The wading pool at <br />78 Rosebrook Park will be available but the Splash Pad may be deferred. Following staff review and <br />79 description of the potential adjustments, commission members concurred with approach. <br />80 <br />81 Chair Holt said it was unfortunate that the lawsuit that delayed the renewal program has resulted <br />82 in a lot higher construction and other costs that have affected the program. <br />83 <br />84 Brokke said he is planning on bringing the first six packages to the City Council in April for their <br />85 approval. Hopefully, construction can still begin in May. <br />86 <br />87 8. STAFF REPORT <br />88 Brokke reported: <br />89 • Spring- Summer brochures have been delivered to homes <br />90 • Roseville Community Band and Central Park Foundation are celebrating 50 years <br />91 • Earth Day at HANC April 19 <br />92 • ArtsgtheOVAL and Tapping Time at HANC were very popular over the weekend <br />93 • SNAG Golf and Junior Golf registrations now open <br />94 • Park Renewal Kickoff event planned for May 3 assuming all can be worked out <br />95 • New park building open houses will be planned <br />96 <br />97 Meeting adjourned at 7:55pm <br />98 <br />99 Respectfully Submitted, <br />100 Rick Schultz, Recreation Supervisor <br />
