the development to the rear of the park have voiced interest in addING trees on the parks back side
as well.
Kristi Anderson, of CRR, suggested the City refer those residents to the donation policy for parks,
the vehicle to which other neighbors have volunteered and paid for plantings in the parks if they wish
to line the back edge of the park with trees or screening.
Norman noticed that the tennis courts were not in as bad shape as he first :thought.
It was also observed that the overall geese population has been down due to natural predators in the
area.

• 4. MINNEWASHTA DOG PARK
Chair Davis gave a brief history explaining how the City of Shorewood got involved in this project
for its citizens. Davis stated that, for many years, residents of Shorewood have asked for a dog park.
By partnering with Carver Parks, the City matched a $5,000 donation by the Park Foundation to
make it possible, with additional funding from Chanhassen and private donors. She pointed out that
the park is comprised of 23 wooded acres which are used by many Shorewood residents or anyone
who has a Carver Parks sticker.
The Park Tour adjourned to the regular Park Commission Meting at 7:30 p.m

trail from Shorewood Oaks to Freeman Park observing the muddy poor conditions of this access.
The Commission directed him to provide some options for consideration.
Landini stated that the three options include either laying new chip seal rock at a cost of $1700.,
putting down fabric and new 1/2" rock at an estimated cost of $1500., or using used chip seal
rock removed from road projects slated for July at no further expense than staff time. is

• Hensley voiced his concern over the need and aesthetics to run a trail all the way along between
the two fields, approximately 272 feet. He suggested the baseball association be contacted to
obtain their feedback on this proposal.
Anderson, of CRR, interjected that this area between the fields has always been an issue, which
the City, as well as the association, has tried to address via multiple attempts at planting grass.
Norman suggested they consider taking care of the critical area now, the first 50 -75 feet or so
which is the worst mess. He asked Landini which option he would suggest.
Landini stated that, although it would be a bit loose this year
suggest using the free used chip seal rock this year and folio`
year if need be.

the upcoming winter, plans and specs would likely need to be approved in July with bidding to
follow.
Chair Davis acknowledged that if the overall rink lighting at Manor is adequate, merely
straightening the pole at Manor Park might suffice.
Hensley asked whether the rink lights at Cathcart are of the same vintage as those at Badger and
could be a safety concern. He reiterated his hesitation to move forward on all three parks until
plans or a vision is laid out of where rinks could go.
Landini stated that he would prepare plans for Badger, and
Cathcart for their reference.

far more benefit than the warming house presently.
Norman agreed that the improved shelter would open up Manor Park to more opportunity for the

Chair Davis moved, Quinlan seconded, to recommend abandonment of the well at the
Skate Park and that it be capped off at City expense as opposed to the Park Commission
expense. Motion passed 6/0.
Brown asked the Commission to give staff rationale for them to take to the City Council of why
the expense should not come out of the Park Commission budget.
Chair Davis stated that she believed the bid to be very high and wltfi out record or history of the
well she did not wish to see Park money spent on its abando nment. addition, the land with the
well was MnDOT property prior to becoming park land.
Norman stated that the larger issue at hand is that of wafer quality management which is a City
responsibility to protect the underlying aqua for, and�therein, is a larger issue than where it

Re: Summer Programs
Two of the children's summer programs have taken place. The puppet show, Nancy, Eddie and Friends
was a huge success again this year. There were about 20 kids that made puppets after the show.
There were 24 kids for the DNR FiN program. They had casting, fish identifying and fish printing. The
kids each received a goody bag at the end of the program. Mark from the DNR mentioned that if this is a
• program that we are interested in having again we should contact them in January.
3` Lair skate camp in June was cancelled due to only one registration. For the July 28 session there are two
kids signed up so far. 3` Lair asks that there be at least five to hold the camp.
There are four children's programs left. The Minnesota Zoomobile on July 18. On July 25 there will be the
Nature Discovery program, where kids will learn about plants through a "search and find" and then with
their findings create a craft project. On August S tn there will be the Garden Art where kids will paint a
flower pot and plant a plant. The final program for the summer is the REI Peak Program on August 15
Big Walter Smith & the Groove Merchant Band is set for Friday, July 11 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Re: Authorize Fund Expenditure For Soil Borings At Cathcart Park and Manor Park
Attached is the proposal from American Engineering Testing, Inc. to conduct soil borings for the rink lights
at Manor and Cathcart Parks. The fee is $4,400 as a not -to- exceed fee. If additional borings are needed, the
maximum fee will be increased by $25 per added foot. They would be able to start testing within two
weeks after receiving authorization to begin work. Results would then be provided verbally shortly after
drilling and the report would follow in about two weeks.
• To date the Park Capital Fund has a $286,000 balance.
Staff recommends approval for authorization for expenditure of funds from the Park Capital Improvement
Funds for soil borings at Manor Park and Cathcart Park. If the Park Commission approves authorization for
expenditure of funds it will go to City Council for approval at their July 14, 2008 meeting.

RE: Proposal for Geotechnical Services
Light Towers, Cathcart Park and Manor Park, Shorewood, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Landini:
CONSULTANTS
• ENVIRONMENTAL
• GEOTECHNICAL
• MATERIALS
• FORENSICS
Per your June 18 request, we are submitting this Letter Proposal to conduct the following scope:
Scope
Fieldwork
Drill three standard penetration test borings in proposed light tower areas (where
accessible) to depths of 24 feet. Two borings will be drilled at Cathcart Park and one
boring will be drilled at Manor Park.
Clear underground public utilities through the Gopher State One System. If there are
private utilities in the area (which are not cleared by Gopher State), we will need a
representative from the City to clear such lines (or a private utility subcontractor could be
hired at additional cost).
Measure and document the boring locations. No measuring of surface elevations is
planned.
Laboratory
• Conduct water content tests on cohesive soils (hourly, during lab logging).
• Conduct other unit price soil index testing ($175 budget).
Report
• Logs of test borings, including descriptions of drilling, testing and classification methods.
• Review of soil /groundwater conditions encountered and of pertinent soil properties.
• Recommendations for vertical bearing support (allowable pressures); review of frost
uplift considerations; and estimates of soil parameters for your foundation designer's
study of moment/lateral resistance (density, cohesion, adhesion and internal friction
angle).

the scope described, we will establish $4400 as a not -to- exceed fee. If additional boring footage
is needed (either deeper borings or added borings), the maximum fee should be increased by $25
per added foot.
Schedule
Based on our current backlog, we anticipate drilling can be performed within about two weeks
after receiving authorization to proceed. Verbal results can be provided shortly after drilling. The
report should follow the fieldwork by about two weeks.
Terms /Conditions
Our services will be performed per the Contract Agreement Between the City of Shorewood and
• American Engineering Testing, Inc. For Professional Services, dated September 13, 1999.
Acceptance
Please indicate your acceptance of this proposal by endorsing the enclosed copy and returning it

Re: Authorize Funds For Project 08 -07 - Rink Lights At Badger Park
Attached is the proposal from Musco Lighting for new rink lights at Badger Park. Light - Structure Green is
the lighting system that would be installed (this is the same lighting system that was installed at the football
fields). There is a 25 year warranty on the systems.
The four wood poles will be removed and two — 40' light structures installed. Two additional fixtures will
. be aimed at the free skating area.
The cost for new lighting installed would be $38,492 (not including underground wiring). There may be
some minor cost from the electrician to install the kit for the control -link. The Park Capital Fund has a
balance of $286,000.
After review please advise staff how to proceed. If the Park Commission approves authorization for
expenditure of funds for lighting system at Badger Park it will go to the City Council, July 14, 2008
meeting for approval.

I recommend lighting the hockey rink and skate area at Badger Park using the Musco Light -
Structure Green system. The Light - Structure consists of a pre - stressed concrete base,
galvanized steel pole, remote electrical component box, pole wire harness, and pole top luminaire
assembly with 1500 watt metal halide lighting. Due to poor soil conditions, the pre - stressed
concrete bases will need to be extended. The City will provide soil borings at each pole location
prior to finalizing project. The Light - Structure Green system includes Control -Link wireless
control system, 25 year warranty, and one group re -lamp at the 5,000 hour rated lamp life.
The project, at Badger Park, includes take down of (4) existing wood poles, and the installation of
(2) 40' Light - Structures with extended bases. The hockey rink will be lit to 25 footcandles which
is the recommended light level for safe play. In addition, there will be (2) fixtures aimed to light
the free -skate area. The existing contactor cabinet, for Control -Link, will be used. There will be
some minor cost involved from the electrician to install the Musco kit for Control -Link.
Cost of the lighting system installed is $38,492 not including underground wiring and electrical.

Re: Authorize Funds For Project 08 -08 - Rink Lights At Cathcart Park
Attached is the proposal from Musco Lighting for new rink lights at Cathcart Park. Light - Structure Green
is the lighting system that would be installed (this is the same lighting system that was installed at Badger
Park football fields). There is a 25 year warranty on the systems.
Cathcart rink would have the four wood poles removed and two — 40' light structures installed. It will have
• two additional fixtures aimed at the free skating area. Cost to install the lighting system is $40,881. If the
soil samples come back ok and the standard bases can be used the cost of the lighting system would be
$30,456. These costs do not include the underground wiring and switch gear by the electrician.
The Park Capital Fund balance is $286,000.
After review please advise staff how to proceed. If the Park Commission approves authorization for
expenditure of funds for the lighting system at the Cathcart Park it will go to the City Council meeting on
July 14, 2008 for approval.
