PARK COMMISSION MEETING SHOREWOOD CITY HALL
TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011
MINUTES
PARK TOURS
The Commission met at the Southshore Community Center at 5:45pm to begin their tour.
SOUTHSHORE COMMUNITY CENTER
Anderson gave the Commission a tour of the Community Center facilities. Robb suggested the
Center consider upgrading the technology on site, for instance, adding flat screen panels to the
conference room. Anderson shared an idea to enhance the deck and landscaping area around the
creek side of the facility to provide an attractive outdoor space.
The Commission questioned the possibility of removing the ‘garage’ structure, keeping the
concrete pad and installing a shelter in its place. Recovering the banquet room chairs was brought
up as well.
GIDEON GLEN
Kjolhaug questioned the erosion control methods used for the trails. Anderson explained a bit of
the history and desire by the MCWD and City to maintain this space as an interpretive passive
space only, but indicated that little has been done to partner with the schools or program it for
educational purposes. The Commission agreed offering programs would be a good addition but
did question the cost for maintaining the storm water pond.
SOUTHSHORE COMMUNITY PARK (SKATE PARK)
The Commission complimented the appearance of the new park signs. They noticed the drinking
fountain, questioned the condition of the skate equipment as looking a bit tired, and noticed space
in the community garden.
MANOR PARK
Anderson and the Commission both acknowledged how lovely the park looks now and how well
used it has become as a model in the community.
The Commission noticed immediately that the bathrooms were not open and asked why they were
not available for use, as well as when the ‘bif’ would be removed. Anderson stated that the park
lead had just informed her the other day that the bathroom timers were not working properly and
that the building inspector still had a few details he was working on. The Commission voiced
their disappointment that, having spent the money to provide indoor facilities and update the
building, why mid way thru the season the park building was not up to snuff. They also wished to
see the porta-potty removed.

In addition, the Commission asked when the info boards discussed for Manor and Freeman would
be installed. Anderson explained that the installation of the cases had been placed on hold during
construction due to vandalism. The Commission directed her to get them put back on the work
list.
Since it was pouring rain during the tour, the Commission made note of the excessive amount of
runoff pouring from the building and directed staff to investigate the installation of gutters and
downspouts directing the water under the gravel walkway near the door and out to the pond - As
well as away from the corner point where the building and shelter overhang meet. Someone
questioned why a rain garden had not been installed at this junction, as they seemed to remember
discussion around this point. In addition, the Commission noticed some large scale erosion
around the picnic shelter concrete pad where water has been pouring off the roof and feared that,
without gutters and downspouts; we may be compromising our new facility.
The Commission suggested an orange fence or barrier of some kind be installed around the dirt,
or supposed grassy area, around the shelter to encourage grass growth. They suggested more
grass seed be added to the area.
Finally, the Commission asked why the gravel area next to the warming house had not been
planted and suggested that, even though the ice maintenance trucks drive on this path during the
winter months, the area could be improved aesthetically by just planting grass, which in turn
would improve runoff.
SILVERWOOD PARK
The Commission was pleased with the new park sign but requested that public works staff trim up
the pine tree and either trim back, a lot, or remove the ‘junkie’ small bushes that block its view
coming west on Covington Road.
The Commission asked that the path be completed that attaches the shelter to the blacktop path
by the playground and bench to complete the accessibility route to the picnic shelter. They
requested that the oddly placed picnic table near the chain link fence be moved.
It was noted that the damaged tennis backboard sheeting should be replaced, as well as, the
bathroom fence surround re-enforced.

A. Park Commission Meeting Minutes of May 10, 2011
Swaggert moved, Kjolhaug seconded, approving the Minutes of May 10, 2011, as
submitted. Motion passed 6/0.
3. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
A.Presentation by Eagle Scout Terence Haines
Haines summarized his proposed project for the Southshore Community Center and asked the
Commission to make a recommendation to Council for a financial contribution.
Robb stated that, as the previous Council liaison, the council had suggested Terrence come back
and share his project details with the Commission, though they already committed to supporting it
and making a financial contribution. They were looking to the Park Commission to make a
recommendation of support and amount.
An ambitious project, Anderson indicated that the steps, small, loop trail, and benches would be a
good addition to the park space near the SSCC.
Robb pointed out that the long term CIP does reflect a loop trail which surrounds Badger Park,
contending that this could be the first step in completing that project.
Anderson suggested it be phased in with the help from Eagle Scouts each year, and asked the
Haines family to refer scouts our way. She stated that public works would be assisting Haines
with the removal of some fallen trees.
The Commission asked how much Haines had raised towards his $3600 estimate.
Haines stated that he was approximately half way there, including contributions from Greenwood
of $266, the Excelsior Chamber $80, Deephaven to be determined and others.
Kjolhaug acknowledged that there would be quite a few man hours required to complete this
expansive project and asked if he had help.
Haines stated that he, his troop, and some friends will provide the labor, while another individual
will help with the chipper, and other adults with power tools. He asked that public works advise
him on the buckthorn removal and who will spray the round-up on the stumps.

TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011
PAGE 4 OF 9
Robb moved, Edmondson seconded, that the Park Commission recommend to City Council
a contribution of $1500 be allocated in support of the project, since it fits with our overall
CIP rationale for parks begin with. Motion passed 5/1, Swaggert dissenting, stating that he
was uncomfortable with the amount.
Mrs. Haines interjected that the troop would give back any leftover funds to the City when
complete and had done so in the past if more was raised or donated than necessary.
4. REVIEW / DISCUSS PARK TOURS
The Commission identified several items within each park for consideration.
Southshore Community Center:
Consider upgrading the technology on site, for instance, adding flat screen panels to the
conference room.
Enhance the deck and landscaping area around the creek side of the facility to provide an
attractive outdoor space.
Discuss the possibility of removing the ‘garage’ structure, keeping the concrete pad and
installing a shelter in its place.
Recovering the banquet room chairs was brought up as well.
Gideon Glen:
Look into erosion control methods for the trails or additional gravel
Partner with the schools or program it for educational purposes.
Whose responsibility would the cost for maintaining the storm water pond be
Southshore Community Park (Skate Park):
Questioned the condition of the skate equipment as looking a bit tired
Is the Community Garden at capacity, if not, why?
Manor Park:
Get Bathrooms open and functional
Remove the ‘bif’
Install the info boards at Manor and Freeman Parks
Since it was pouring rain during the tour, the Commission made note of the excessive
amount of runoff pouring from the building and directed staff to investigate the installation
of gutters and downspouts directing the water under the gravel walkway near the door
and out to the pond - As well as away from the corner point where the building and shelter
overhang meet.
Investigate installation of a rain garden at this junction, with MCWD?

5. DISCUSS/MAKE A RECOMM ENDATION TO CITY COUNCILREGARDING
ADDING GIDEON GLEN TO THE PARK & RECREATION DEPARTMENT
Chair Quinlan indicated that he had requested the Commission consider the future of Gideon Glen
and adding it to the Park System. He questioned what it could be with regard to the Smithtown
Crossing and pointed out that there is little, if any, access to the Glen. Even if it was the original
intent for it to remain a passive space, he maintained it should still be enjoyed by residents.
Edmondson questioned what the future costs of the Glen might mean in the future.
Anderson summarized the current agreement with the Commission acknowledging that
maintenance of the storm water pond would be the City’s responsibility, whether that would be
parks or the city’s storm water fund was unknown.
Chair Quinlan maintained that it should be overseen by the Commission as stewards for its future,
as it has sat in limbo for too long.
Hartmann suggested that in any recommendation made to the Council we make reference to the
wording that, ‘as stewards ‘of the park system we would manage the Glen.
Edmondson pointed out that several issues arise, such as access by trails and parking, if one
considers this addition. He questioned whether the costs would be too much.
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011
PAGE 6 OF 9
Hartmann and Kjolhaug questioned whether the MCWD had provided the City with an ongoing
maintenance or management plan.
Anderson stated that, to her knowledge, there had not been a plan provided to the city.
Robb agreed that, from a management perspective, there are big costs associated with parking
and pond drudging.
Anderson indicated that she could ask staff, Brown, Nielsen, and Heck for more information with
regard to the agreement and maintenance and report back.
Chair Quinlan noted that, this is exactly why the Park Commission should be involved in its
stewardship.
While Kjolhaug agreed that it would be appropriate for it to fall under parks. Just what that means
must be explored further. He suggested they even consider annexing just the pond as a storm
water item, not parks. He maintained that, clearly, from the tour it is apparent the MCWD is not
doing what should be done so far to maintain the plantings. He suggested the City have the
MCWD come out and perform maintenance and provide the city with a wetland conservation
management plan.
6. DISCUSS PROS/CONS OF MOVING THE SSCC (SOUTHSHORE
COMMUNITY CENTER) TO THE PARK AND RECREATION UMBRELLA
Anderson explained that staff had suggested she encourage the Park Commission to discuss to
what level of support or involvement they’d like in the Southshore Community Center. She stated
that, from a programming perspective, the SSCC would provide a wonderful addition to the Fun
Friday activities we host in the parks by providing an indoor alternative. By hosting park events
in the SSCC, we can continue joint promotion and offer year round programming. In addition,
Anderson stated that if it were viewed as a park and recreation amenity to the City, the Park
Foundation may be able to collect and donate money towards it, as well as, provide the non-profit
status often necessary to apply for grants. While operations would continue to be tracked
separately, since the Center is jointly owned, she asked for the Commission’s views and opinions.
Edmondson stated that he continues to be one of the SSCC biggest fans.
Robb stated that obviously the costs could be kept separate as a different line item.
Chair Quinlan asked whether the Commission felt it should provide additional oversight or
whether it should just encourage cross promotion in programming.
On behalf of the Commission, Kjolhaug encouraged Anderson to continue to build a synergy
between the parks and Center programming and maximize the best of both assets.
7. BADGER PARK REHAB RECOMMENDATION
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011
PAGE 7 OF 9
Anderson explained that she had contacted the organizations and found that most were interested
in indoor storage and bathrooms.
Chair Quinlan reported that liaison Hotvet had expressed her opinion to him that the whole
building should be raised. He felt the building could be rebuilt, similar to what was done at Manor
Park.
Swaggert stated that he would support staffs recommendation to create some suggestions and
bring them back for discussion.
Robb stated that what we have now currently fulfills much of the need he is hearing from the
users. It is a warming house, it has indoor storage, but it could be remodeled a bit to make the
bathrooms year round user friendly. By refurbishing what we have and adding storage lockers,
Robb believed we would accommodate the existing need.
Edmondson pointed out that, in his opinion, the enclosed bids seemed awfully high. He believed
the whole building did not need to be razed but instead cosmetic reconstruction and outdoor
restroom access be considered.
Swaggert stated that the line items for the bigger rehab items were attached for consideration.
Robb stated that he would like to see the outside cosmetic rehab done this year and consider the
interior options and outdoor access doors going forward next year.
Hartmann stated that line item 5 should not be handled by the Commission as a CIP item. In her
opinion, curb replacement, parking lot repair and cement work are clearly not the responsibility of
the Park Commission CIP.
Edmondson concurred, adding that nor should line item 3 be considered a CIP Park item -
removal of the paving between the building and parking spaces, replacing the soil with class 5 and
compacting it to a 4’ depth, replacing the soil with sand to correct drainage.
Kjolhaug stated that, with regard to safety, these items need to be done in the near term. In the
longer term, he asked to see some modest ideas for improvement.
Chair Quinlan asked staff to put together a plan for the existing structure to serve the purposes
outlines, with the minimal enhancements to the structure as discussed. Refurbishing the outside of
the structure and dividing up the interior space.
Robb stated that he did buy that the whole building was a structural hazard.
Robb moved, Swaggert seconded, to proceed with the exterior painting project and
directed staff to collect bids for the work to be done to complete items 1 and 4, Exterior
paint and stoop work and report back. Motion passed 6/0.
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011
PAGE 8 OF 9
Chair Quinlan also asked staff to proceed with the staff level plans for minor improvements to the
existing structure to include outdoor access to the bathrooms, interior paint, and indoor storage
and report back with hard cost estimates for these items for consideration in 2012.
Hartmann asked if we should collect input from neighbors of Badger Park.
Anderson agreed that this could be done in advance by survey, or as an open house prior to or
after plans have been drawn up for their consideration.

th
Anderson asked if we wished to proceed with the June 28 park tour of other community parks.
Robb suggested the Commissioners visit a couple of parks and bring back photos to discuss at a
future meeting. If we see something we’d like to consider for our parks this would be a good way
to share.
th
Anderson indicated that she would not be able to attend the July 12 meeting and asked if she
should put this item on the Agenda for discussion. She encouraged the Commissioners to visit any
of the parks from the PowerPoint packet she had sent out earlier, if they had seen any interesting
elements in those photos, or visit other parks that contained items of interest, such as, Frisbee
golf, ultimate Frisbee, hard surfaced rinks with basketball courts, etc.
Chair Quinlan asked staff to send email reminders to the Commissioners to identify a couple of
parks to visit, photograph and report back at the August meeting. He commented that it was a
good time to review and discuss these as we begin our CIP review.
10. NEW BUSINESS
Chair Quinlan announced that Commissioner Trent had sent a letter of resignation to him and staff
that day when he realized that he would be missing another meeting. Quinlan indicated that Trent
was apologetic and willing to stay on until a replacement was found.
As a senior member of the Commission who always provided good input, Edmondson stated that
he would embrace Trent’s participation as much as possible until he is replaced. He wanted Trent
to feel welcome to attend as he is able while we search for a replacement.

Re: Badger Park Warming House Rehab Recommendation
As a follow-up to the Park Commission discussions of May 10 and June 14, 2011, Coordinator Anderson
was directed by the Park Commission to A) put together options to remodel the existing structure at a staff
level, and B) provide estimates for the minor patch work and exterior painting of the warming house for
consideration.
Building Inspector Pazandak, will be attending the Park Commission meeting to share staff level plans,
similar to what was done for Manor Park warming house to include storage space and out/indoor accessible
bathrooms, with the intent that the City apply for the Hennepin County Youth Sports Grant.
In addition, attached are several estimates from exterior painting contractors, as well as, an estimate for the
prep, patchwork, and labor required to ready the shelter for painting and clean-up the facility. Originally,
$5,000 was allocated for the exterior facelift for the warming house.
In addition to painting, Pete Seamans Construction estimate of $1975.00, which includes tearing off the
lean-to fenced area, roof repair, two new steel doors, boarding up one door and residing the exterior,
patching hardie board where necessary, caulking and renailing siding and facial boards should be included in
the base total. An add-on item to repair the stoop for the door, would be an additional $2,250.00
Each of the painting contractors estimates include materials, labor, power washing, scraping/sanding, filling/
priming, and two coats, including the foundation. The estimates range from $2,090.00 to $3931.00
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Park Commission should
1.Direct staff to pursue one of the staff level remodeling projects as proposed, obtain further detail,
and follow the application process for the Hennepin County Youth Sports Grant
2.Recommend the City Council award the painting contract to Eclipse Painting Contractors in the
amount of $2,090.00; and award the construction prep work to Pete Seamans Construction in the
amount of $1,975.00 for a total project exterior facelift cost of $4,065.00
3.Do nothing
Badger Park Shelter: Brain storming, wild ideas and wild cost estimates.
Badger Park Shelter Project Options:
1.Remodel and repair existing building. $5,000/50,000
a. Two in-swing doors, wall/door to new storage area and minor stoop remediation.
$3,000
b. Bathroom remodeling. $9,400
c. Other? /Exterior painting and siding repair.
d. Other? /Removal of exterior storage.
e. Other?
2.Replace building with (1-female/1-male) bathrooms, seasonal/all year use.
$25,000/$30,000
3.Replace building with (2-female/2-male) bathrooms, seasonal/all year use.
$35.000/$40,000
4.Replace building with (1fm/1m) bathrooms and warming house. $90,000
5.Replace building with (1fm/1m) bathrooms and detached pavilion. $45,000
6.Replace building with (1fm/1m) bathrooms and attached pavilion. $65,000
7.Remove building and provide portable bathrooms. $4,000
8.Move hockey rink and install youth sport field or village green. $6,000
Site conditions to address:
1.Soils, fill, water and frost heave of soil.
2.Frost is heaving paving and fence for tennis court.
3.Location and use of bathrooms or shelter.
4.Existing shelter is larger than needed.
5.Existing shelter needs repair and is not energy efficient.
Project Considerations:
1.Floating slab.
2.Screw pilings for small building.
3.Fabric type pavilion.
4.Options for building use and location.
5.Options for how park would be used.
6.If ice rink was moved to Tonka Bay, could Shorewood Staff do the ice and Tonka Bay do
the warming house/toilets?
7.Paving ice rink for tennis court would need to address soil conditions for settlement and
frost movement that would damage the paving unless it was a grass or clay court.
8.Future use of park could be considered prior to investing in existing shelter.
9.Remodeling costs could be invested in new building and new direction for park.
10.Cost to collect preliminary project information, soil tests, structural design, other.
11.Combine project with street sweeping removal for public works. If this is possible, it may
provide $20,000 to $40,000 removal costs savings that may be used for work on the park.
This is not for sure, needs additional research but just might work.
12.Future, flex tennis court. Warming house area
13.Projects 1. a. and 1. b. do not address condition or frost lift of stoops/slabs around
building.
14.Doors are estimated at light weight insulated steel, not heavy duty steel like Manor Park
Shelter. Locks and timer are not included in estimate.
15.Hard cost determination needs to have a firm determination of project scope and
commitment. Hard cost will have cost to develop. Contractors are hesitant to develop
hard cost unless they know the project is developed and confirmed commitment to
proceed.
16.Opening up part of the existing shelter for pavilion could increase frost development under
existing floor, damaging floor and building.
17.Heating building appears to have reduced damage to building. The paving and grade
around building has moisture in soil and is not protected from frost expansion. This lifts
the walks and paving above the building, causing building use/maintenance issues.

Re: Agenda Item 7 – Review CIP for 2012
Attached you will find the capital improvement projects for the years 2011 – 2015, the Park Inventory and
Priority Needs Assessment and the Park CIP Wish List for your review and discussion.
A few items that the Park Commission may want to review and determine if they would like to add or
change to the CIP are:
The installation of message boards at all the parks. If this is something that the Commission would
like to have at the parks you may want to add this item to the CIP. The estimated cost for a medium
message board is $690.
Another item that is on the CIP for 2012 is tot lot items for various parks. As Cathcart, Manor and
Freeman Parks have installed either a new playground or updated tot pieces; the Commission may
want to consider moving the $12,000 to Badger Park to update the play equipment at that park.
Also, the skate park equipment is scheduled to be updated in 2014. The Commission may want to
determine if this should be moved up on the CIP to update the equipment earlier than scheduled.
The Commission needs to review the 2011 plan and recommend a program to the Council as well as
recommend / request transfers to cover the program.
