4. PRESENTATION BY EAGLE SCOUT – NICK HOSTETTER
Chair Quinlan welcomed Nick to the meeting. Quinlan informed the Commission that Nick contacted
him about doing an Eagle Scout project in Badger Park or for the Southshore Center and he is looking
for possible ideas. Quinlan asked Mr. Hostetter to provide the Commission with what he is
considering.
Hostetter stated he is from Troop 702 in Minnetonka and is looking for an Eagle Scout project. Part of
process is completing a permanent project. He told the Commission he can recruit 20 – 40 people to
assist with the project and is interested in anything needed at the park. He listed a few possible ideas
such as rehabbing a warming shack, rehabbing the hockey rink, doing a trail, restriping the tennis
courts, repainting play structures, etc. He said he is open to anything the Park Commission and City
have. He stated the project needs to be about 150 hours. He told the commission he is planning for
sometime in the spring or summer and plans for a one to two day project.
Chair Quinlan stated Nick has come at the right time as the Commission is currently looking at re-
designing Badger Park and one of his project ideas may fit well with this process. Quinlan also
indicted that Nick spoke to Kristi Anderson about projects at the Southshore Community Center.
Nicks father offered a few comments.

Nick mentioned that he used to be a big basketball player and noticed there is not a court at Badger
and Tonka Bay just updated their court at Manitou Park. He thought a basketball court might be a
nice addition to Badger. He did not know where a good place to put one would be as the city floods
the area behind the hockey rink.
Quinlan noted that the City does have a couple of courts, one at Cathcart and one at Silverwood.
Quinlan then asked Heck to express any concerns or issues the City may have regarding a project.
Heck stated the City encourages and supports these projects and he has been involved in two projects
so far. One was the rehabilitation of a bridge and walking path adjacent to the Southshore Center and
the other a composting set up at the community gardens. Heck stated what the city needs from the
scout is a project plan and what resources the scout needs from the city in terms of staffing or
funding.
Kjolhaug asked for clarification from Nick on the number of volunteers and he reiterated he would be
getting between 20 and 40. Kjolhaug then stated there is a pending project in Freeman Park involving
the removal of Buckthorn and he thought this might be a good project.
Heck clarified that the city is applying for a grant with Great River Greening to cover ½ the cost of
Buckthorn removal from two areas in Freeman Park and Great River Greening relies on volunteers to
help in the removal process.
Gorden asked about woodchips and pathways that might be pending. Heck responded that no plans
are in place as of yet, however, there has been discussions on putting a trail along the creek in Badger
Park.
Edmondson asked about fund raising for the project. Nick stated he has not started this process as of
yet.
Quinlan suggested coming up with a short list of projects and then to work with Nick on selecting a
project that would work for the city and Nick. Quinlan stated this could be done at the meeting in
March and recommend the project to the council. Quinlan then asked Mr. Hostetter to send the
projects identified by Ms. Anderson.
Quinlan stated there was some interest in establishing some trails in Badger Park, but he is unsure of
the time and effort needed to put in a 100 or so yards of trail.
Mr. Hostetter stated there is a program called “National Trail day” in June and proceeded to explain
how this program works. He indicated several organizations, such as churches, home improvement
stores, outdoor recreation stores, etc, get involved with volunteers and supplies. This might be an
opportunity to explore.
Heck stated the commission is having a joint meeting February 28 and the commission could convene
a brief meeting following the joint meeting to consider this item. This would allow for council
consideration at their March 12 meeting.
Following a bit more discussion, the commission consensus was to gather a short list of projects and
meet with Nick following the joint meeting on February 28 to consider and recommend a project.

Quinlan thanked Nick for his willingness to do a project.
DETERMINE LIAISON FOR CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS FOR MARCH, APRIL AND
MAY
Quinlan then asked who will do the park commission report to Council for the March, April, and May
meetings. After some debate, commissioner Edmondson volunteered for the March 12 meeting.
Commissioner Gordon volunteered for the March 26 meeting. Quinlan volunteered for the April
meeting. Commissioner Kjolhaug volunteered for the May meeting.
DISCUSS BADGER PARK PRIORITY SETTING
Quinlan began the discussion on Badger Park planning and priority setting by outlining what the
Commission discussed at the last meeting and indicating that part of this meeting is to develop the
Commissions vision for Badger Park and for the Park system as a whole.
Quinlan read the mission statement developed by the Park Commission in 1996: The Shorewood Park
Commission shall guide the development, implementation, and maintenance of Shorewood’s
recreational System. The recreational system consisting of parks and a multi-purpose trail network
shall provide the community and neighborhoods with a safe, attractive, and diverse recreational
facilities and dedicated trail network.
Gordon asked about the changing demographics for Shorewood. Heck stated the city is getting older
and stated according to the recently conducted survey, there is an age “bubble” at the 45-54 (34%)
and another at the 55-64 (20%) age groups.
Heck asked the Commission to think about what the strengths or positive aspects Badger Park
possesses and what are some of the disadvantages or drawbacks of the Park. The Commission
proceeded to discuss and identify a few of the positive aspects of the park. These include the
generally central location, size, connection to the Southshore Center and City Hall, the creek, and
woods were also noted as strengths of the park. The commission then listed a few of the negative or
disadvantages of the park. These included size, soil conditions, parking, and high water table.
Heck then asked the commission to identify some of the existing uses of the park space as well as
what some of the potential uses might be. The Commission identified organized sports (football,
lacrosse, tennis, skating, walking, dog exercise, kid’s recreation (playground), passive recreation, and
neighborhood recreation e.g. pick-up games as existing uses). Potential uses included a display area
with information on the history of the city and the area, an outdoor amphitheater, basketball, chess
tables, bocce ball, shuffle board, horse shoes, a formal garden area for weddings and such events. The
general thought was to make sure the park hosted amenities for the changing demographics of the
city. The other strong thought was to ensure a cohesive connection between the City Hall and
Southshore Center to create a campus type feel.
Finally, Heck asked the Commission to consider what might not be a good fit with the Park. The
commission listed three items. Those being the football field, community gardens, and tennis courts
e.g. moving from two courts to one court.
The commission then addressed what their particular vision for Badger or the parks as a whole is.

Gordon stated her view is the parks provide services that an individual will not provide on their own.
She used the example of not having a tennis court or skating rink in their yard.
Quinlan voiced his thoughts and stated he believes parks contribute to an increase in the quality of life
of the Community that anyone in the community can use for any purpose.
Edmondson read excerpts from the Minneapolis Park Board vision statement. Minneapolis Park
Board and Recreation Board exists to provide places and recreation opportunities for all people to
gather, celebrate, contemplate, and engage in activities that promote health, wellbeing, the
community, and the environment. Experiences health, fun, and learning for all people. He stated that
in a nut shell it is community pride and support. He then expressed how he envisions Badger Park. He
views Badger Park as a multipurpose-integrated space to coincide with community center and city
hall.
Kjolhaug stated he sees parks as outside space providing recreation organized or not, connecting with
people and nature – parks provide opportunities for all ages, in every park, in every season.
Heck stated these are all very good statements. He also stated the commission has been at this for
about an hour and felt it a good idea to end the discussion at this point. He will summarize the
information for the next meeting where the commission can begin to assemble a plan for the park
based on the discussion from tonight.
Brown pointed out that in the discussions of Badger Park; the commission take in to consideration the
placement and location of various amenities. He stated it is as if the “park fairy” came out and
indiscriminately sprinkled things around the park. The commission agreed this aspect must be a part
of the overall plan.
DISCUSS AND RECOMMEND RINK POLICY
Quinlan moved the commission to the ice rink and warming house policy. Quinlan outlined the
purpose for developing the policy explaining that the city currently does not have a policy on when
rinks and warming houses are opened, when they close, when to consider not starting rinks, etc.
Quinlan stated he wants to open the topic for discussion and asked if this policy needed to go to
council if approved tonight. Heck responded that the Commission makes the recommendation and
then it goes to council for final action.
Edmondson asked about the section related to rink warming house opening and closing and asked
about the term “should conditions permit.” He stated that is a rather wide open and vague statement.
Heck stated conditions fall to the public works department. Heck added he feels the city would go
back to the statement regarding creation of ice and the conditions that are necessary to begin to form
ice. Brown stated input by staff assigned to parks is key in the determination of ice conditions. He
will rely on their input on ice conditions in making decisions. He stated that dates are difficult in that
the entire process is “at conditions permit.”
Kjolhaug brought up the thought of having staff time available during the night to flood rather than
during the morning as is done now. Brown stated that the critical issue is building a good base and
that he talked to staff about this and there is some agreement to working out a “shift change” in order
for the development of a good base. Staff will look at this potential for the next skating season.

Commissioner Edmondson moved to recommend approval of the policy. Kjolhaug seconded the
motion. Motion carried.
REVIEW AND RECOMMEND PURCHASE OF PICNIC TABLES
Quinlan moved on to the picnic table discussion. He noted the document provides the option of two
different tables from two vendors; the vendor used in the past two years and a new vendor. One of the
tables quoted is constructed of expanded metal and the other is perforated metal. The vendor the city
usually uses indicated the tables are perforated metal and not expanded metal. Quinlan stated he
prefers to keep the same type of table and color and therefore recommended the past vendor provide
the tables again this year.
After some discussion as to what type of table we actually have, Heck suggested the commission
return the item to staff for clarification.
NEW BUSINESS
Quinlan asked for new business. He stated Kristi and Twila have been discussing a musical event at
the SSCC on June 1. Quinlan said there are no details as this point; he just wanted to make the
commission aware of the event.
STAFF AND LIAISON REPORTS/UPDATES
Heck stated there is a joint meeting scheduled for February 28 and asked if the Commission has any
specific issues to cover with the Council beyond the resident survey and Badger Park. Quinlan stated
he would like to address Gideon Glen as part of the parks.
Quinlan asked staff if there was anything new from the council meeting held last night or information
on grants.
Heck stated the city is applying for a tree grant and stated the council did not authorize applying for
another grant for the county road 19 trial segment. Heck stated a big concern expressed by the council
is the overall cost for the implementation of the trail plan. Heck stated staff will bring this issue back
to council to try and iron out the issues associated with this item.
Heck stated the community survey presentation went well and stated residents are quite satisfied with
the city and the park system.
Edmondson stated a neighbor attended the meeting to discuss the issue of safety and other traffic
concerns along Country Club Road.
Kjolhaug mentioned the issue of the grant for buck thorn removal as well as the Christmas Lake
development and the park dedication fee. Heck stated that dedication fee goes in to the park
improvement fund and not into the general fund.
Commissioner Hartman moved to adjourn the meeting, commissioner Edmondson seconded
the motion and it carried. Meeting adjourned at 9:19 p.m.

2. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR.
There were no matters from the floor this evening.
3. RECAP JOINT MEETING
Quinlan stated the meeting with council was good and asked for comments. Robb stated it was good
and liked that council came up with goals for the city and the commission can work on the items
related to the goals. Swaggert asked about trails and who “owns” the trails.
Quinlan stated there was a committee that addressed the planning of the trails and producing the
report. Robb asked about the purpose of the committee – what the deliverables were. Quinlan outlined
the work of the committee as it relates to trails.
Heck outlined that at present, Park Commission is the overseer of the trail implementation plan. The
suggestion is to move this to the Planning Commission as they have better experience with public
hearings and since trails are part of the transportation plan, it makes sense to have it with the PC.
Heck also stated that trails that go through the parks are the purview of the Park Commission.
The commission spent some more time talking about the level of feasibility studies. Kjolhaug asked if
there is a way to prepare a lower level study that might separate some trails from others.
After additional discussion, the commission moved on to the next item.
4. REVIEW QUOTE FOR RESURFACING TENNIS COURTS FOR CATHCART,
SILVERWOOD, AND MANOR PARKS.
Commissioner Quinlan introduced this item and stated this is the same firm that did the coating in the
past and the work appears to be good.

Heck indicated that Dermco- Lavine has done an excellent job in the past. He stated that staffs
concern is investing $6,500 in Manor to seal it might not be the best use of funds, which is why staff
recommends holding off on the maintenance of the Manor court so staff can assemble other options
that might be better and more longer term fixes.
After some additional discussion, Commissioner Hartman made the following motion as stated
below.
Commissioner Hartman moved to recommend the city contract with Dermco-Lavine to
resurface the court at Cathcart and Silverwood, and have staff consider additional options for
Manor. Grodon seconded the motion. Motion carried.
Commissioner Kjolhaug departed the meeting at 7:45 p.m.

Playscapes in the amount of $7,917.30 including taxes and freight. Edmondson seconded the
motion. Motion carried.

Quinlan talked about the Eagle Scout project that Nick Hostetter is looking to do. Commissioner
Robb stated he thought continuing the trail from the SSCC and heading along the east end of the
Football field. The Commission directed staff to contact Mr. Hostetter of the project suggested by the
commission. The Commission is also interested in the development of a form for future Eagle Scout
projects.
Quinlan stated that this is the last meeting for Commissioner Robb and thanked him for his excellent
work and contribution to the commission.
Nick told the commission the Marines called him back to duty and he will be going to training for

Re: Agenda Item #6 - Summer Activity with Southshore Community Center
The Southshore Community Center is planning an event for all ages – from seniors to young families. It is a Country
Music Hoe-Down and Cowboy Poetry Community Dance/Music in the Park event at Badger Park. Kristi Anderson,
the Director, is looking for sponsors to help offset costs for the festivities and asked if the city would like to help
coordinate the event.
st
The event is scheduled for Friday, June 1 from 6-8 pm at Badger Field. The country singer, Red Johnson, is well
known in the metro area and played last summer at the Waconia American Legion, along with cowboy poetry &
storyteller Rich Bellert.
It is the desire of the SSCC that they partner with sponsors in order to avoid ‘charging’ for tickets to the outdoor event.
Not only would collecting tickets be difficult, but Anderson noticed that within the community survey, residents
indicated that they enjoy Music in the Park opportunities and thus, she thought this might be beneficial to both the Park
Commission and the SSCC. While planned as an outdoor event, in case of inclement weather, we have the indoor space
of the SSCC to utilize.
Anderson has also spoken to the American Legion, who is considering making a financial donation or providing ‘picnic
food’ to sell at the event to help offset costs for the SSCC. She will let the Park Commission know what the Legion
decides after their next board meeting.
The cost of the band and storyteller is $1,000., similar to fees of past MIP events. The company that does the sleigh
rides for Arctic Fever is willing to supply a wagon for the band to play on. He is charging $100 to cover his gas
expense. He is not charging a rental fee.
Kristi can be reached at the SSCC ahead of time at 952-474-7635 or will try to stop in at 7:30 during the
park meeting to see if there are any questions.
Attached is a copy of the summer events budget. After reviewing the budget the Park Commission will need to discuss
and determine if they would like to sponsor or donate towards the cost of the band for this fun event. If so, it will need
to be determined what amount they would like to put towards the event.

Re: Manor Tennis Court
Park Commission discussed and approved resurfacing Cathcart and Silverwood courts at their meeting on
February 28. The Commission based their recommendation on information provided by Dermco-LaVine, the
contractor that resurfaced courts in the past. The Commission did not include the Manor Park tennis court in
the recommendation. Dermco-LaVine evaluated the Manor Park court and found issues with the base of the
court. Dermco recommended removal of the existing asphalt and repaving rather than resurfacing the court.
They did provide a cost to resurface the court if the city wanted to go that route.
Staff recommended the Commission hold off on Manor to give staff an opportunity to discuss the process,
cost, and other possible options with Dermco-LaVine. Staff met with Dermco – LaVine on Wednesday,
March 7 and discussed the possible options.
Options:
1)Resurface the court – includes some minor work on the asphalt base - $6,500.00. The company
representative stated based on the condition of the court, the city can expect to resurface again due
to cracks within 18 to 24 months.
2)Remove the asphalt base and approximately 1” of existing class 5 rock. Replace and compact the
rock and put down two layers (lifts) of asphalt base and paint. The process would take about 1.5
months, depending on weather, as the asphalt needs to cure approximately 30 days before painting
the court. The representative stated the life expectancy is about 30 years for the cost of $30,000-
$35,000. He recommended resurfacing every 5 years thereafter. Cost per year approximately =
$2,166. Includes resurfacing every 5 years.
3)Install a product called “Versa-Court.” This product consist of inter-locking tiles placed over the
existing court. The surface is 100% maintenance free, warranted for 15 years, and last 30+ years.
The underlying court surface can crack and it will not affect the playing surface. If weeds and other
items begin to grow, staff can use Roundup or another herbicide to kill the growth without harm to
the tiles. The court can still be cleaned with a leaf blower, garden hose, or power washer in the
manner already used by staff. The cost to install these tiles is $25,000. The company representative
stated that this produce is used on a court or two in the City of Eden Prairie. The time to install the
tiles is approximately two to three days, depending on weather. Cost per year approximately $833.00
Staff will provide a sample of these tiles at the meeting for you.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Commission recommend the installation of the Versa-Court product at
Manor Park.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Park Commission
FROM: Brian Heck, City Administrator
DATE: March 6, 2012
SUBJECT: Summary of February 14, 2012 Badger Park Discussion
The commission continued their discussion of Badger Park and the amenities they feel are best
suited for this park.
The main focus for the commission during this discussion was on how they each envisioned
Badger Park. The commission began by considering the strengths and weaknesses of the park.
The commission landed on a couple key strengths of the park: location and connection to the
Community Center and City Hall. As for weaknesses, the commission identified parking, soil
conditions, and size. Taking off from this point, the commission began to discuss and explore
what they viewed Badger Park becoming.
Commissioner Edmondson outlined his view of the park by characterizing it as a connection
bringing together the community center and city hall. Some of the things he sees for the park
include a place for outdoor events such as weddings, an amphitheater, and a picnic area.
Other commissioners see an area that provides a mix of active and passive recreation that also
works to tie the community center and city hall into what can be better characterized as a
“campus” type feel.
Badger Park Vision statement:
I tried to take comments made at the meeting and massage them in to a brief vision statement.
The commission can revise and clarify this statement.
Badger Park will become the connection that ties City Hall and the Community Center together
and will provide a space for community gatherings and supports lifelong leisure activities.
Where does this leave the commission, especially as it relates to redesigning Badger Park?
Looking at the previous discussions, the Commission identified and discussed a few of the top
priorities in terms of amenities and left the others for future discussion. To review, the top
priorities were:
1) Picnic Shelter
2) Football field – Lighted. This was also referred to as multi-use green-space.
#8
3) Restrooms
4) Tennis Courts – not lighted
Attached is the summary of the ratings.
As the commission progresses in defining what amenities fit with the vision above, it might be a
good idea to meet with the immediate neighborhood as well as sports associations that currently
use the facilities.
For this meeting, the commission should focus their discussion on those amenities that serve to
fit the overall vision of the park.
STRENGTHS:
Proximity to City Hall and SSCC –alternatives for many activities campus
feel.
Central location in the City.
Good sized space – open to many different possibilities. (can also be a
limitation)
