This grant is funded by the Twins ballpark sales tax, which was approved back in 2006. The program encourages local government applicants and non -profit youth organizations to create partnerships. The timeline is short for the first grant cycle, which is November 2, 2009. Awards will range from $10,000 up to $400,000. Matching funds and in -kind contributions are encouraged and will be a factor when being considered for the grant award. Also, attached you will find information regarding the grant program for your review. Mr. Lance Nelson and Mr. Tim Jenzer from the Minnetonka Hockey Association met with City Administrator Brian Heck, Park Coordinator, Kristi Anderson and Park Secretary,Twila Grout last week. The hockey association proposed installing two refrigerated outdoor ice rinks at Freeman Park. A refrigerated rink can start around mid November and go into March (all weather dependent). Flooded rinks normally start around the middle of December to around the 14 of February (these dates are also weather dependent). Attached is a rough draft of the cost for installation and maintenance /running of two refrigerated rinks. These are estimated amounts that were received from St. Paul. The association is working on getting more precise figures to provide at this meeting. Due to the short timeframe for this grant cycle, it was determined that it would be beneficial for the hockey association to provide a presentation to both the Park Commission and City Council at this joint meeting regarding the refrigerated rinks. Once it has been determined if staff should go forward with the grant, the grant amount that will be requested is $400,000. The hockey association mentioned that they would donate $150,000 towards the project. The Park Commission will also be discussing the proposal from the Hockey Association and the grant at their Park Commission meeting. #z 03'• • .• Hennepin County is seeking local units of government interested in developing facilities for amateur sports or recreation. Legislation authorizing the building of the new Twins stadium allows Hennepin County to grant up to $2 million dollars each grant cycle to Hennepin County communities to assist with developing these facilities. These grants will be made through the Hennepin Youth Sports Program. Purpose The purpose of these grants will be to allow municipalities, park districts or school districts to create, expand or improve sport or recreational facilities to enhance opportunities for athletics and recreation. No grant awards may be used for ongoing expenses, such as programming services or operating and maintaining the facilities. Criteria These criteria will be among those considered in evaluating grant applications: • Need for the facility, including recognizing that many changes in youth sports and activities have occurred in the more densely populated cities of Hennepin County • Equitable distribution throughout the county • Leveraging non - Hennepin County funds and in -kind contributions • Sustainability, including ongoing operating funds • Inclusion of environmental improvements Examples The following are examples of potential projects: • Baseball and softball fields • Soccer, football and lacrosse fields • Skate parks • Disc golf courses • Trails Partnerships The Hennepin Youth Sports Program is intended to encourage cooperation between the local unit of government applicants and non-profit youth organizations. The program seeks to create partnerships between the end-users and the owners of facilities in order to maintain high quality facilities for the future. Awards will range from $10,000 up to $400,000. Respondents are encouraged to provide matching funds or in-kind contributions. Matching amounts will be a factor considered in grant awards.

Assuming the City Council continues to contribute $45,000 annually to the Park Fund, it was determined that the Commission could schedule planned improvements of up to $80,000 per year over the next five years without depleting its ongoing CIP fund. With these figures in mind, and the Park Commission's stated priorities, staff re- positioned the schedule of improvements to reflect the primary goals utilizing this budget plan. In addition, the revised CIP schedule reflects modifications to allow the city to capitalize on a cooperative partnership with the hockey association in order to pursue the Hennepin Youth Sports Grant program. Although the potential grant request may be nearly $400,000, with an additional $150,000 coming from the hockey association (as well as an ongoing maintenance commitment), it would be proposed that the City contribute a mere $50,000, with added in -kind services. As a guideline, the CIP provides a vision for future planning, in this case, TKDA had proposed rinks at Freeman, given the opportunity to finance this endeavor in the near term, staff took the liberty of redistributing the 5 -year schedule to accommodate the project. im Proposed the le for Shorewood Parks City of or o Park Coordinator: Kristi Anderson T ennis court overlay $ 6,000 Shelter design & phased in $ 50,000 Pond options $ 2,000 lace plav eaui econ struct Pa rkin g lot ntral lawn /amphithetre Cathcart nnis court overlavi $ 6,000 50,000 wing set replacement $ 2 shelter /warm house $ 50,000 Replace hocky lights $ 50,000 ew rink /synth boards $ 55,000 xpanaireaesign pKing $ 75,000 1 IBadaer Tennis court overlayl $ 6,000 arm house spruce up $ 3,500 Install rustic trail $ 7,500 Picnic shelter /warm nd overlook /benches $ 7,500 construct square /remove rink Skate Park small shelter $ 16,000 drinking fountain $ 7 Comm Garden sign $ 150 blcktp strip of surface $ 4,200 add directional sign $ 150 TOTALS: $ 58,600 $110,250 $ 82,740 $ 83,000 $80,500 $50,000 $ 125,000
