3. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
City Engineer Brown stated that Charlie Davis from Public Works asked Engineer Brown
if he would talk with the Park Commission regarding eliminating pets from the parks.
People are ignoring the ordinance on dog feces and it is really bad at Freeman Park. He
stated that there are a lot of dog feces around in the parks and especially in the play area.
This is unsanitary with kids around.

Commissioner Themig stated that he was surprised that there was no leash requirement, •
and thought maybe this should be considered. Engineer Brown said that what people do
is take their dogs in the ballfield area and block the gate opening with the trash barrel and
let the dog run and, they don't pick up after the animal. There are people out at Freeman
every morning and Charlie has talked with them about how they are not abiding by the
rules.
Brown asked if requiring our Police Officers to go out and enforce the ordinance is
practical? Commissioner Themig suggested additional signage around the parks as an
interim step. Commissioner Puzak felt that first we should have the officers enforce the
ordinances. Commissioner Arnst felt that a couple tickets might affect them.
Commissioner Themig suggested having a leash ordinance solely in park areas.
Commissioner Arnst stated that when people let their dogs run they are not going to go
and pick up after their dog, but if the dog was right there with their owner they would
more than likely pick up after the dog. Commissioner Puzak suggested that Charlie call
the police. Commissioner Themig said to let the dog owners know this has come before
the Park Commission and if you don't start picking up after your pet the next step is dogs
will not be allowed in the parks. Commissioner Amst asked that it be very clear wording
so that people get the point. Consensus was to have the police work with Charlie and put
a few more signs out. Engineer Brown will report back to the Park Commission in a
month.

Freeman Park:
Items are listed below (Discussion of Freeman Park Issues).
5. DISCUSSION OF FREEMAN PARK ISSUES
• North Parking lot — Multi- Purpose Building — Engineer Brown stated that he is at a
stand still with the project. He needs direction as how to proceed. Do we want to try
and get a revision, modifications? Puzak asked what was in the Capital Improvement
amount. Administrator Hurm stated that this was on the agenda for the next meeting;
$60,000 for the building, $40,000 for the sewer, plus $10,000 from the foundation.
Commissioner Dallman stated that for this amount you might get the concession part
and roof with no bathrooms.
Commissioner Puzak suggested going to council and say this is what you get and we
need help or we say this is where we will start and add on to it in the future. We
need to start someplace. Administrator Hurm explained that you could go to the
council and do that through the revision of the Capital Improvement Program. If you
can show a good financial plan take it to council. Additional revenues are building
up. Instead of $1,000 now we will be getting $1,500 for every lot. This will be an
additional $25,000 coming in here over the next 5 years in projections. Administrator
Hurm will put something together for the Park Commission to look at in the Capital
Improvement Program which may show a temporary deficit to be covered by the
General Fund.
Commissioner Dallman was wondering if we could go with a concession stand and
the picnic shelter and let the Park Foundation go after the bathrooms. Puzaks feelings
are bathrooms are driving this as an amenity. In order to build a bathroom you need a
heated building because of the plumbing and that gets you closer to a warming house
and the rest can be changed. Commissioner Themig questioned if we should not look
at a warming house yet, and add the walls at a later time. We could do the bathrooms
and picnic shelter. But then we need the concessions. Puzak feels that the concession
is is the only way we will get out of the revenue deficit. We are going to have to go into
Park Commission Meeting

the building. Commissioner Dallman suggested that they put up the concession and •
have the Park Foundation do fundraising for the bathrooms. Administrator Hurm
asked the Park Commission if they are still viewing this as an amenity to the park
now that it is more than double the cost or is it too costly? Commissioner Arnst's
feelings are that it is an amenity to the whole city. Commissioner Arnst asked now
that we have a base line to work with ($195,000) maybe we could get some creative
ideas within the next six weeks without cutting out the bathrooms and the concession
area. Engineer Brown stated that he will go to Chaska Building Center and see why it
is so expensive.
Commissioner Themig also feels that bathrooms in the park are more than an amenity
to the park he feels they are a requirement with the use of the park and activities that
are there. He stated the least amount of support is in the concession part of the
building because he doesn't feel you can bring in a lot of revenue doing that. He
suggested building the bathrooms and picnic shelter next to it. Commissioner Puzak
agreed that the bathrooms are the immediate need. He does feel since you have the
running water and sewer the concession stand is not that much more work and it is a
source of revenue.
Council Member Zerby suggested that the Park Commission come up with more than
one plan and bring it to City Council It was decided to have Engineer Brown come
back with some plans. 0
• There was discussion regarding how nice the parks look and that some type of
appreciation should be shown to Charlie from Public Works for his hard work on
making the parks look beautiful. It was decided that the Park Commission would get
a card and present it to Charlie and the crew.
• Picnic Shelter — No changes
• Proposed batting cage — Engineer Brown is working with Gordy Lindstrom.
• Viewed where the decks of the closest unit of Shorewood Ponds will come. There
was discussion as to the dust from the parking lots, and how this will impact the new
development. If the parking lot is blacktop there will need to be a pond.
Commissioner Themig suggested to proceed on looking at the parking to the north
and south, what would it take to pave and if it is gravel how do we reduce the dust.
Are there any opportunities? Would Osha's be willing to give us their backyard for a
pond? The immediate thing is the road. We need to look at the big picture, put some
money in the budget. Commissioner Themig's concern is traffic flow from the
southside. If you shut the road off now there is no natural turn around, no traffic
flow, because people park everywhere. If you close the road there is no place for
them to turn around. Engineer Brown confirmed that the road could be closed with
the development and investigate as to what might be done as to minimizing the dust
and making adequate use of the land, and to see what is necessary as far as a pond. is

Themig moved that the Park Commission recommend to Council to proceed with
designing for the closure of the road along field #2 at Freeman Park and explore the
options for addressing traffic flow and parking on the south side and north side of
the road closure. Puzak seconded.
There was further discussion:
Commissioner Puzak asked if Eaglecrest Development is building units and depending
on existing parking lot to become a free full circle cul -de -sac that is an encroachment and
the use of that arc is an encroachment into the park. It may or may not happen on game
days. On tournament days there will be parking problems. Engineer Brown stated that he
sees no difference than the North parking lot. Commissioner Puzak stated that he was
trying to express his concern that there is inadequate parking now.
Motion passed 311. Dallman opposed.
• Safety Netting — Still waiting on the easement documents signed by the residents. The
purpose of this is: 1. Permission to put up the poles and netting and
2. Is a waiver of insurance liability for them?
Administrator Hurm is still waiting for the signatures.
• Engineer Brown is working with Gordy Lindstrom on the placement of batting cages,
signs and relocation of storage shed.
• Scoreboard — Commissioner Dallman expressed that it should be out in left field.
Engineer Brown agrees and has talked to Gordy about this.
• Netting — There will be some tree trimming necessary to install the netting.
Commissioner Dallman mentioned that he met with Gordy Lindstrom regarding
where the netting would be. Gordy Lindstrom said that the netting would go far south
next to walkway in Shorewood Oaks. Administrator Hurm stated that he plan was
that they were going to meet out there with the neighbors and work it out with them.
Commissioner Arnst asked Administrator Hurm if he could follow -up with the
neighbors, sending them a letter asking if they could meet with them on a certain date
and time regarding the netting. If the neighbors don't show at least the Park
Commission made a reasonable effort.
• Plant Trees — Charlie will do.
• Map for trail.

Shorewood. MN 55331
Dear Mr. and IMs. Healy:
I have talked with Blaine Conant concerning an encroachment agreement for their
property and for yours to install nets behind Field #2 in Freeman Park. The agreement
would also indemnify and waive the property owners from claims arising from use of
Freeman Park. He said that he had talked with you about the agreement document, but
• that you did not seem favorable to the idea. Attached please find a copy of the said
encroachment agreement that we have prepared for your property. Please review it and
give consideration to executing this agreement.
I will be out of the office for several weeks, but please free to talk to Larry Brown the
City Engineer about any of the details of the agreement, or feel free to communicate with
Deputy Clerk Teri Naab who will be happy to facilitate execution of the agreement.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
Sincerely,
James C. Hurm,
City Administrator
