4. REPORTS
A. Report on City Council Meeting
Woodruff reported that the City Council discussed the CIP for all departments in a work session.
He noted that the City would be sending a letter to the County and the Three Rivers Park District
requesting they standardize the signage and eliminate the trail crossing striping to deter
confusion at the crossings.
Woodruff went on to explain that the Council decided to go forward with testing sediment in
Manor Pond to get a handle on what it would cost the City to dredge the pond if the sediment is
considered hazardous waste.

Robb asked what the obligation would be if the sediment is deemed hazardous.
Woodruff stated that, if the sediment is deemed hazardous, the City doesn't have to dredge nor is
it obligated to do anything with the soil material.
Anderson reported that the City Council chose not to pursue the Hennepin County Youth Sports
Grant this first round and encouraged staff to coordinate its efforts with the hockey association
and obtain answers to some of the questions that the Commission and until rose. It suggested
staff consider alternate locations, such as Badger, and partnerships f y 6 e tune grant
applications with the County.
Davis asked where Badger Park came from in the discussion.
Heck added that the City is unsure whether it wishes rocedd

evaluate the reservati .i policy until it's been further tested. She stated that she would continue to
work with Carlson, as well as, others to bring more lessons to the parks.
D. Update on Manor Pond
The update had been covered within the City Council review.
While thought to be classified as a wetland in the 1930's, Heck noted that the pond had been
dredged soon after, since that time the classification has changed and the MCWD no longer
considers the pond to be a wetland but instead a storm water pond. Heck added that testing was
expected to be returned within two weeks, at which time, staff will report back.

Acting Chair Davis asked where the hinds to perform the dredging were anticipated to come
from.
Woodruff pointed out that, since it is considered to function as a storm water pond, the funds
would likely come from the storm water fund.
Davis stated that planning for Arctic Fever was coming along nicely and that a 5 -1 OIL cross
country ski race was in the works as was the addition of movies offere tents on the lake.
Anderson added that the Southshore Community Center was goil et in on the action of

Heck noted that the uId install a coated steel fence around the perimeter of the garden

Anderson indicated that staff had estimated the need for 650 s.f of fencing material at 4 -6' in
height for the project. In addition, until the drinking fountain were installed, public works would
be asked to place up to 10 rain barrels at the site, but noted that the access to water would be
appreciated from the public works perspective as well. She reminded the garden team that the
City does use herbicide in its parks, though the contractor would be directed to avoid the garden
area. She suggested the Commission consider making a recommendation to the Council after it
reviewed the CIP under item 7.
Woodruff noted that the Commission should consider the start-up costs and expenses as outlined.
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES

DeMers pointed out that that startup costs for the installation for the fencing would be a one
time cost and the drinking fountain was planned for the skate park anyway.
Anderson stated that, while it might be important to figure out the pond issues first, the
Commission should take the time to consider what uses it is looking for from the Manor Shelter.
Anderson stated that she and Administrator heck had met with members of MCE last week to
discuss what kinds of programs and facilities they would be looking for to run out of Manor
Park. They were pleased to hear the City was considering making the n - pessary improvements to
the facility to support their programs for that end of town.

to the City Council th t the Manor Park Shelter be cleaned up, winter storage moved
elsewhere, bathrooms added to the facility, running water and sewer be made available,
review the lighting and roof conditions making the necessary alterations, completing
necessary ADA improvements, and that an interior work table be added to the facility all to
support the end goal of offering programming and a more complete facility for public use
on the east side of Shorewood, taking into account city programming opportunities and
partnerships with other user groups. Motion passed 5/0.
7. REVIEW UPDATED CIP FOR PARKS
Anderson pointed out that the proposed Park CIP that was distributed incorporated many changes
made at a staff level and presented to the City Council for review. She stated that she would hand

and promote drying out of the area over the courts. With regard to Manor Shelter, Heck stated
that he chose to error on the high side estimate for the shelter renovation as a place card holder
which can be revised or remain..
With regard to Cathcart Park, Heck noted that, although Chanhassen does not wish to participate
on major improvements, they will continue to provide for mowing and trimming for the park.
With this in mind, the Commission had still planned to make some necessary improvements
including the installation of tot pieces and improvement of the hockey lights which are in
disrepair.

In an effort to provide for aesthetic control, the Commission may wish to also purchase and
install the fencing for the skate park garden. Heck noted that, since there was a drinking fountain
slated for installation in 2011, it made sense to make this improvement available for use in 2010
for the garden plots which will alleviate the stress put on public works also.
Heck also presented the concept of improving the rink and warming house facility at Badger Park
in coordination with the hockey association using the Hennepin County Grant.

continue sue grants to ` to an of the proposed improvements. Davis stated that while she
is all for mo s, she is n ecessarily supportive of chilled rinks given the ongoing burden
of chilled rinks.
Heck pointed out tha taff employees have now taken grant writing classes and will begin to
focus efforts on pursu,' these opportunities.
Woodruff suggested staff consider adding 10 picnic tables per year using some economies of
scale. He noted that the revised CIP, though front end loaded, represented good expenditures of
funds if the Commission shared their reasoning.
Quinlan felt the Commission had spent a considerable amount of time in the panning phases for
each of these expenditures over the course of this year, with help from staff and TKDA updating
the Master Plan. Since we spent little this year, lie felt justified in the proposed expenditures for
2010. In fact, Quinlan asked to move the park signs item into 2010 also.

The Commission felt the 2010 project list to be considerably full and agreed to place the signs
item in 2011, but suggested staff use the later part of 2010 to initiate the process for installation
in early spring of 2011.
Defers concurred, noting that the Commission had been slowed waiting for and executing the
process and plans with TKDA and he looked forward to moving on with some of these items for
2010.

SUBJECT- Financial Update
Attached you will find the Park and Recreation budget through 11/30/09 and the Park Improvement
Fund as of 11/30/09.
The Park and Recreation budget is an account in the general fund and is supported by the general levy.
You will notice that the current level of expenditure exceeds the budgeted amount by .20% with one
month left and the $45,000 transfer has not been made to the Park Improvement Fund. The projection
is for the Park and Recreation fund to run about 20% over budget for 2009.
The largest overage is found in the contractual services line of the budget and is over as the 2009 budget
did not include additional funding for Community Rec. Resources additional contract for park
coordination activities. The other line you will notice is the engineering fees. This represents
disbursements to TKDA for the master plan study. The 2009 budget only contemplated $1,000 in
consulting services.
The 2010 budget contemplates and includes the contractual services from CRR and the additional staff
time associated with support for operations. The 2010 budget also includes additional funds for
materials and supplies to provide more general maintenance to the systems.
The Park Improvement Fund started the year with a balance of $261,710.47. The improvements made
to date total $13,922 for an ending balance of $248,788.40. The transfer of $45,000 is not included in
this total so the estimated beginning balance for January 1, 2010 is $293,788.40.

Re: Agenda Item 4C — Manor Pond Testing
The Park Commission asked for an update on the Manor Pond testing. City Engineer, James Landini is
working with the engineering firm on testing the pond at Manor Park. He mentioned that the surveying will
be taking place the end of December. This is all dependent on the weather and that the pond is iced over.
With this in mind, this may affect the skating at the pond this winter and whether the warming house will
be open or not.

Re: Update on Tot Car Pieces for Parks
At the last Park Commission Meeting the Commission voted to recommend to Council the purchase of 5
Pace Action Car Ride playground pieces for the parks. At that time staff mentioned potential perimeter
placement for these items and shared the Commission's recommendation with the Public Works Director.
During its City Council meeting, the Council asked whether staff had obtained additional quotes for
competitive items from other manufacturers, as well as, for more information with regard to installation,
shipping, etc., the total package.
At that time, staff met with Public Works Director Brown who indicated that there is more to the process
than deciding to purchase playground pieces for installation. The additional considerations include fall line
distances, playground perimeter allowances and whether the parks can currently accommodate these added
items without moving the `curb' perimeters for the playgrounds themselves.
Staff will be evaluating with Public Works personnel the feasibility of installing added elements in the
parks, given these fall distance requirements and curb standards. In addition, staff will investigate additional
quotes for other small pieces and would urge the Commission to consider whether they would find it
acceptable to consider something other than this specific pace car piece if the estimates and fall line
requirements dictate so. Staff will report back with Public Works assessments and sample
recommendations at the next meeting.

SUBJECT- 201-0 Staffing and contract
The council was presented with information and recommendations regarding staffing allocation
adjustments and the contractual relationship with CRR regarding the operation of the Park functions
during a work session on Monday, December 7. The council will be asked to take formal action on the
issue at their Monday, December 14 Council meeting.
The issue of interest to the park commission is the status of staffing allocated to the park function and
the Community Rec. Resources contract.
For 2009, the City allocated .65 FTE administrative assistant time to parks and entered in to an
agreement with Community Rec. Resources to work with the commission in gathering and providing
information and follow -up on issues and items needed by the Commission to make good
recommendations to the City Council regarding the operation and maintenance of the city's parks.
Based on general feedback, it appears that this arrangement has been fairly successful and the
commission has seen more responsiveness and follow -up on issues than in the past. There have been a
few rough patches and I take some responsibility for this by not being more hands on in the beginning.
The Commission has an aggressive plan for 2010 and as such, I am recommending to the Council that
the City continue to contract with CRR for at least another year as well as to increase support time to
the Parks. I will also be more active in making sure there is better coordination between staff and CRR
so as to minimize the roadblocks that may arise.
Continued assessment of the contractual arrangement will be done throughout 2010 to see if any
changes are needed in 2011 and beyond.

SUBJECT: m 20 .0 - 2011. GOALS AND OBJEcrIVES
Council and staff have been developing and discussing goals for 2010 and 2011 for the past several
months. A few months ago, the Council — over two meetings — reviewed and developed a list of
objectives for the identified goals. The goals are divided in to the following larger categories:
infrastructure, parks, recreation, and environment, public safety, planning, zoning and inspections,
finance and personnel, and communications and citizen involvement.
After the council identified the broad scope of objectives, the process of prioritizing the objectives
began. The list of objectives was provided to Council and staff to rank on a three point scale. 1= must
be done in 2010; 2 = nice to accomplish in 2010; key for completion in 2011; and 3 = not required in
2010, begin planning in 2011 for completion in 2012 or later.
The Council is discussing the prioritization of the objectives at their Monday, December 7 meeting and
staff would like to get the park commission feedback on where they see the priorities for parks over the
next couple years.
Commission feedback will be included in the final document that will go to Council at the December 14
meeting.
Attached you will find the goals and objectives that pertain to parks, recreation and environment.

At the previous meeting, the Commission identified their vision for programming and the need for updates to the
shelter at Manor Park as a community amenity for the east side of Shorewood and presented this to the Council.
During its Council Meeting, the Council indicated that it was their intent that the Park Commission put
together a committee consisting of one Council Member (Zerby) and one (at minimum) Commissioner, to
host a neighborhood meeting at the Manor Park shelter to obtain neighbors input.
Staff would suggest the evening of December 16th, the morning of Sat Dec 19 or holding off until Jan 5"'
or 9 th for the neighborhood meeting at which time the Commission will present their vision for the park and
its facility to the neighbors, ask for their input of how this fits into their view for the park and what
activities they'd like to see there. Staff will create a draft neighbor survey for the Commission to review at
Tuesdays Commission Meeting.

Re: Review and Recommend Placement of Memorial Benches, Revised Donor Policy and Style of
Benches at Parks. — Item 48
The Park Commission reviewed the Donor Policy including the addition of Memorial Benches, a sample
bench as is used in Chanhassen, and suggested park locations at its October 13 meeting and sent the item
on to the City Council for recommendation.
The City Council supported the Memorial Bench concept and asked staff to further define specific
placement for the benches within the parks, as well as, provide additional bench estimates and samples for
consideration by the Commission and Council.
Based on referrals by Council to neighboring communities, staff has provided additional bench samples for
consideration by the Commission, including those originally from Midwest Playscapes of concrete, a
wooden bench from Victor Stanley, and a recycled plastic wood look bench from Clearwater Recreation,
refer to attachment, for the Commission's consideration.
The Commission should also review the revised Donor Policy which reflects the changes to the Memorial
Bench section language, as well as, the proposed park placement for each bench and make a
recommendation to the City Council.
Staff Recommendation:
Upon review, staff recommends that the Park Commission support the proposed changes to the
Donation Request Form as well as, a listing of designations for bench placement, and provide options
for the benches and send the item onto City Council for their approval.

Twila Grout — Park Secretary
Date: December 3, 2009
Re: Community Garden Plots
At the last council meeting, staff shared with council the guidelines for the community garden plot, and the
recommendation of the fencing and drinking fountain that the Park Commission made at their meeting.
Council asked that a layout of the garden plots be shown on a map in relationship to the skate park,
discussion continue to see how much staff and city resources would be going towards the plots and how
much it would cost to run water to the drinking fountain.
The map is attached for the Park Commission to review where the garden plots are in relationship to the
skate park currently. If the City chooses to add additional spots, the plots will likely run in a north/south
direction so as to be nearer the water access.
Since the inception of the community garden the city and the gardeners have had requests from residents to
be put on a list in case it is decided to rent out plots. There are a total of five individuals on the waiting list
interested in a plot. As discussed at the previous Park Commission meeting, the garden would have 10
plots, with one being the demonstration garden. The other nine plots would be 8' x 10' plots. Shorewood
residents would pay $30 per plot and non - residents would pay $45.
Kristi has spoken with Plymouth and Chanhassen regarding their garden plots. Plymouth has 87 garden
plots which are sold out every year with an accompanying waiting list.. Chanhassen has 55 plots which are
sold out each year and have 40 individuals on a waiting list.
Although the installation of the drinking fountain has always been a part of the Master Plan for the skate
park whether the gardens exist or not/ The installation of the water fountain has been moved up to 2010 in
the CIP. This past summer Public Works placed water barrels at the site for the gardeners to use for
watering. The installation of the fountain would also help with supplying water for the gardeners and would
free up Public Works time in filling water barrels every day. Kristi spoke with other cities on resources for
watering. Plymouth has 9 water spigots and provides hoses and one set of spray nozzles at the beginning of
the season, as does Chanhassen. Minnetonka supplies the water for the gardeners. All three cities
concurred that providing access to water was a critical element if a city chooses to offer plots in order to
alleviate pressure placed on public works stag. At this time stagy is investigating the cost to run water to
the drinking fountain and will report back to the Park Commission once costs have been determined,
Public Works will excavate the bed and remove the topsoil and rototil. It will be the responsibility of the
gardener to mulch/fertilize their garden,
The fencing will be up to each individual if they would like to fence their plot. The City of Plymouth does
not provide fencing for individual plots and requires each gardener to do so on their own, and has not had
any problem with this.
Staff developed a draft set of guidelines that it shared with the Commission at the last meeting. Another
revised draft is attached for the Commission to review. Under Proposed we added "up to" 10 total, and on
the second page under The City's Participation the following was deleted: that Public Works would replace
with composted topsoil /manure /mulch, and the first bullet was deleted (the city will install fencing).
Staff recommends that the Park Commission recommend to City Council that the Community Garden Plot
project move forward for 2010 at the South Shore Community Park following the attached guidelines and
that staff will provide figures for the installation of running water to the drinking fountain as part of the
Master Plan for this park once it has been determined.

Until the City installs a fountain with hose adaptor, Public Works (PW) staff will
place 10 Rain barrels at the garden plots — 1 intended for each plot.
While it is understood that an herbicide will be used in the parks, the gardeners
request that the contractor avoid the garden side of the park and/or allow a 10'
buffer around the garden area. While it is anticipated that `mother nature' will
provide rain water for the barrels, PW will fill barrels when dry conditions persist
The City will provide a park sign, similar to the current brown park signs, which
identifies the site as the `Demonstration Garden Plots, City of Shorewood'
The City will provide notification to one `point of contact' within the board if any
unkempt or rundown conditions are noticed (unkempt, excessive weeds, tools left
out, dead /dried up plants) who will notify the applicant they have one week to
clean it up — if the conditions are not addressed within one week, the Garden team
may reassign the unseemly plot.
The City is not responsible for lost /stolen items, gardeners are responsible for the perpetuation
of the site, as well as, those working the site. Gardeners will be expected to supervise their
children /volunteers on site, Nor is the City responsible for impacts from 'mother nature',
damage from hail storms and inclement weather, or from pests and. deer.

Re: Damage to Parks
Three recent incidents of damage to parks were reported by Public Works staff to the City (FYI) for your
information at the Commission level.
First, Public Works Director Brown reported that on November 24, 2009, Public Works personnel found
that the "Rumble and Roll Slide' at Silverwood Park had been damaged. Director Brown has made contact
with the contractor to obtain a replacement quote and documented the damages to file a potential insurance
claim. Photo attached.
Second, on December 2, 2009, Public Works personnel reported that during their morning rounds of facility
checks they found that the eave at Manor Park's warming house had been damaged. It is unknown how the
damage was sustained. Photos are included for review.
Consideration with regard to replacement, insurance, and further security are under consideration regarding
these instances.
Finally, Public Works crews reported that on December 2, 2009, another break -in occurred at Badger
Warming House. This has been an ongoing issue. The warming house was broken into, with only minor
damage occurring. First aid supplies were removed from the cabinet, and thrown about the structure. A
fluorescent bulb was also broken.
A similar incident occurred approximately two months ago. During that instance, a fire extinguisher had
been discharged interior to the building. Crew members spent a day cleaning up the residue. During both
instances, it appears that the perpetrator spread the door frame, to gain entry. Parks personnel are
reinforcing the door frame and putting a security clasp across the door during the off season. In addition the
SLMPD will be notified of the activity.

RE: Damage to Silverwood Park Playground Equipment
Prior to my taking medical leave, I had reported that on November 24, 2009, Public Works personnel had
found that the "Rumble and Roll Slide" at Silverwood Park had been damaged. Since my return, I have had
an opportunity to investigate, document that damage, and make contract with the vendor.
Below are photos of the equipment, the slide and the damage sustained.
The playground equipment is manufactured by GameTime. The vendor that is the supplier is Minnesota
Wisconsin Playground. I have been in contact with the sales representative for the area and am expecting a
quote for replacement within a two day period.
