Attachment A <br />Roseville 2021 Legislative Priorities <br />Seek financial support for capital improvements for the state and regional asset of the <br />Guidant John Rose Minnesota OVAL and support facilities through the State Bonding Bill <br />The Guidant John Rose Minnesota OVAL and support facilities have been an ongoing financial <br />partnership with the State of Minnesota since its inception and construction. Specially, the <br />OVAL was constructed in 1993 after receiving $1.9 million from the State of Minnesota. <br />General capital improvements were made in 2006 and 2008 after receiving an additional $1.1 <br />million from the State of Minnesota. <br />The OVAL is home to local Hockey organizations, Greater MN Speedskating, Midway <br />Speedskating, USA and MN Bandy. <br />Due to the state and regional nature of the Guidant John Rose Minnesota OVAL and the ongoing <br />financial partnership with the State of Minnesota, it is again time to consider seeking financial <br />support for upcoming capital improvement needs. It is important that this financial partnership <br />continue as time and depreciation warrants capital improvements to the facility. <br />An assessment of the mechanical systems and infrastructure condition was completed in 2018 <br />that identified the capital costs needed for the Guidant John Rose Minnesota OVAL. <br />In the 2020 Legislative Session, the City received $3.9 million in state bonding funds for the <br />OVAL repairs. Additional funds, estimated to be $753,000 are needed to complete the repairs <br />and refurbishment of the OVAL facility. These costs would be to: <br />1)Repair the roofs over the banquet facility, the lobby, and mechanical building which also <br />includes structural modifications to support rooftop solar panels. <br />2)Renovate Banquet Facility and rooftop mechanical units <br />3)Restroom remodel to improve conditions and make the space ADA accessible. <br />The City of Roseville seeks financial support for capital improvements for the state and <br />regional asset of the Guidant John Rose Minnesota OVAL and support facilities through a <br />future State Bonding Bill. <br />February 8, 2021 Draft <br /> <br />
