COUNCIL CHAMBERS
5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD
7:00 PM
Present: Chairman Schmid, Commissioners Lindstrom, Jakel, Vogel and Laberee;
and Deputy Clerk Niccum
Absent: Commissioner Jurgens
WARMING HOUSE /PAVILION
Chairman Schmid reviewed the information provided to the Commission in their packets
regarding the approximate cost of $4950 received from Pete Studer. The above
amount was for: a 20' x 20' block building with a wall separating a 4' utility
area from the main area and a 25' x 30' slab; 48" footings; 12" blocks below
grade; 8 blocks above grade; and 8' walls. The extending apron slab will be
tied into 12" block at grade level.
Two plans were studied, A. and B.; plan A runs north and south and plan B is at
an angle.
Vogel moved, Jakel seconded, to accept plan A as a conceptual building plan. Motion
carried unanimously.
Commissioner Lindstrom feels there should be two exits in the building, with one
door close to the satellite for the convenience of skaters.
The pavilion posts were discussed and steel posts were preferred over wood posts
due to prevention of vandalism.
The Commission also discussed the roof, and felt a hip roof would be better than
a gable roof because of overhang on all sides.
They also discussed windows and will discuss the issue more at a later date.
Staff reported that Planner Nielsen has said that if the warming house is built
next to the pond, soil borings will be necessary. He also said if a lot of fill
is needed, a grading plan will be necessary, along with a fill permit.
VOLLEYBALL COURT
The Commission discussed placement of the volleyball court. They decided to put
it in Manor Park because it is primarily a family park. It would be built parallel
to the warming house /pavilion and east of it.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
Lindstrom moved, Jakel seconded, to approve the minutes of June 2, 1986, as written.
Motion carried unanimously.

page two
0 VOLLEYBALL COURT — continued
Commission wishes to know if Public Works Director Zdrazil could have Public Works
dig out a 36' x 60' volleyball court 5 1' deep. The warming house would be built
first and the dirt from the court would be used around the warming house. Also
what would the charge be to the Park Commission?
Commissioner Jakel checked on pricing and 'came up with the following information:
53 Tons of concrete sand 5 deep
Volleyball net
Posts and concrete
Labor
$283. (Mueller Sand and Gravel)
120.
200.
Jakel moved, Laberee seconded, to recommend to Council that a volleyball court be
built in Manor Park adjacent to the proposed warming house, a minimum of 15'
away from it, at a cost not to exceed $900. Motion carried unanimously.
Commissioners Lindstrom and Jakel will stake out the warming house /pavilion and the
volleyball court within a week and request that Planner Nielsen take a look at it
to see if it meets with his,approval.
TENNIS BACKBOARDS
The Commission discussed the backboards again and felt that a 1" x 10" on the
• bottom, with 6 sheets of marine plywood and 7 16' 4" x 4 1 's, with the plywood
screwed into the posts with sheet rock screws (using a gun) would work out fine.
They asked staff to ask Administrator Vogt to put it on the consent agenda.
FILL — HENNEPIN COUNTY DEPARTMENT O TRANSPORTATION
Staff reported that a letter had been received from Patrick B. Murphy of Hennepin
County offering clean fill.
8:17 Commissioner Jakel left to attend another meeting.
FINANCE
There is $ 24,200 in the Park Capital Improvement Fund through May 31, 1986.
SNOWMOBILE ORDINANCE
The next meeting, July 7, 1986 will be a very short meeting .....the Commission
will then go into a study session to look over ordinances from other cities and
begin drafting a new ordinance.
FOOTBALL FIELD
The Commission delayed discussion of the football field until the last item in
hopes that Commissioner Jurgens would make it to the meeting to report on the
progress. The Park Commission has Looked at the dirt on the field and it is the
consensus of the Park Commission that the dirt is not good, it is a fairly heavy
clay loam, and full of debris. Their main concern is whether anything will grow.
ADJOURNMENT
Jakel moved, Vogel seconded, to adjourn at 8:50 PM. Motion carried unanimously.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED, Sue Niccum
