In addition, Brown stated that the Bridgeland Development Group petitioned the city to bring municipal water to the site north of Manor Park, around the bend up Suburban Drive, since the City plans to be bringing water down Manor Road currently as part of another project.

A a PARK COMMISSION AGENDA TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2005 PAGE 2 OF 4 5. MANOR PARK POND WATER QUALITY TESTING - (Park Commissioner Westerlund) 0 Westerlund presented the Manor Park Pond water quality monitoring results from the summer. To review, the Commission had visited the site during its annual park tour and agreed that the pond's water quality should be addressed via monitoring over the summer. At the outset, the Commission believed that the pond suffered from algae blooms and free floating green algae, -x,hich hlor_.ks the suns rays from reaching the bottom of the lake and decomposes at the bottom using up the little oxygen that exists for the plant life and forming muck. In an effort to measure the total phosphorous, both dissolved and particulate, chlorophyll a, and the amount of free floating algae in the water, Westerlund agreed to collect samples over the summer. The samples Westerlund collected would check water clarity, how thick the algae growth was, and the dissolved oxygen at the top and bottom. Westerlund shared slides from the various testing dates; June 2" d the lake was fairly clear with lily pads and duckweed, though difficult to measure water quality due to the thick growth of macrophytes, weeds. On 7/14/05, Westerlund pointed out that mats of filamentous algae had begun to form covering the top in a green slimy algae. On 8/6/05, the entire surface of the pond was covered with the filamentous algae and decomposing algae covered with gas bubbles. Westerlund stated that she presented these facts to the Limnologist, who deduced that the pond was not suffering from a green algae problem, as first thought, but from a filamentous algae problem, or macrophyte problem. A difficult problem to solve, Westerlund presented several options. First, she proposed a • chemical fix, which is often costly and requires toxic herbicides. Next, is a biological solution using crayfish to rid the pond of the macrophytes, but these may creep into the watershed, thus creating a new problem. A bacterial solution using bags of barley straw could prove to be cost effective and easily implemented. Finally, a physical solutions such as dredging, an expensive alternative; aeration, effective only near the aerated area; or shading, a cheap and relatively easy way of dying the water in order to shade out the growth. On slides from 8/31/05, Westerlund pointed out that there were several nice stands of native plants around the shoreline of the pond. However, she also shared slides of the excessive geese fecal material in and around the children's plays area, which poses a public health threat. She suggested that the Commission pursue its original plan to plant native vegetation as a buffer between the play area and the pond in order to deter the geese. This barrier of plants would be helpful. As the phosphorous is already in the sediment of the pond and reloads it, Westerlund asked the Conunission for their thoughts on the proposed solutions. Hensley asked what the goal for the pond was. Westerlund stated that, initially, the Commission chose to address the water quality issue, but also wished to use the native plantings buffer as a lakeshore restoration example. Chair Davis asked how the new development would impact the stormwater volume. Brown stated that there would be ample pretreatment at the development site. He pointed out that • the outlet to the pond would be improved as the City brings a watermain past the pond. While there is not a great deal of capacity in a 3' deep pond, filtering options are necessary to improve the stagnant waters and quality. PARK COMMISSION AGENDA TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2005 PAGE 3 Or 4 0 Hensley commented that, to him, it sounded as if the pond was striving to become a wetland, as opposed to a pond at all. Loheit asked if the health issues could be treated hand and hand with the water quality and aesthetics. While separate issues, Westerlund maintained that each could be addressed simultaneously. Young stated that he would like to see a treatment plan to attack each of the options for spring 2006. Chair Davis agreed that planting a buffer would both deter the geese and improve aesthetics and could be done so with a limited investment. Westerlund believed that, with an expert's assistance, the planting project could be completed for just a few thousand dollars. Brown stated that the Kestral Group put together a plan for the Gideon Glen project and could be approached to do so for Manor Park. Hensley stated that he believed barley straw bags might be the best options for the City, as an inexpensive alternative, to the others out there. Young moved that the Commission endorse Westerlund's explorations of plantings, collection of estimates and proposals for those, as well as, barley straw bales, and report back to the commission to resolve the Manor Park Pond issues for spring 2006. Loheit seconded. Motion passed 6/0. Brown suggested that Westerlund put together a brief article for the newsletter, as the study and proposals for the Manor Park Pond are both interesting and informative. 6. BUCKTHORN BUST EVENT Saturday, November 5"', 2005, from 9 am — 12 pm. Brown reported that 7 people had signed up so far, in addition to Commissioners and White. He noted that the weed wrenches had arrived and would be available for use after the event. Commissioners Davis, Farniok, and possibly Westerlund and Loheit promised to attend the event. 7. PARKS FOUNDATION ART IN THE PARKS VOLUNTEER SIGN UP Young stated that the Foundation was looking for additional assistance, though he would be volunteering for the event, also scheduled for November 5 "' 8. DETERMINE DATE FOR NOVEMBER PARK COMMISSION MEETING Brown indicated that he would investigate the opportunity to hold the meeting at the Southshore Community Center on November 15 "'. Brown reported that the Concessionaire has expressed interest in running the Concessions for 2006, noting that the city received $1500 for the 2005 concessions.
