4. NEW BUSINESS
A. CIP Section Related to Parks
Chair Hirner noted that Planning Director Darling had mentioned to him earlier today that the City
has submitted for the grant reimbursement for Silverwood Park ($25,000). He gave a brief
overview of the other projects outlined within the staff report, the reserves, and the general
information included in the tables. He asked about the trail overlay plans within Freeman Park.
City Engineer Budde explained that the Council has already authorized preparation of the final
plans and specifications and noted that the survey work has been completed but noted that there
was not necessarily any survey work needed for the other trails that will be rehabilitated. He
stated that they are still in the design process and reviewing the Go Pro footage that they have
gathered. He noted that they will probably have about 50% plans within the next month or so,
with the expectation of bidding at the Council level around February.
The Commission discussed the CIP plans/projects for the upcoming years for 2023-2032.
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES

PAGE 2 OF 5
Commissioner Gallivan noted that one thing that was not included in the CIP was related to the
conversation about the adult exercise equipment along trails or in Southshore park. He asked if
the Commission wanted to still consider this at some point.
Planning Director Darling noted that it was included in the CIP and referenced as the Southshore
Park Master Plan. She noted that she had moved it back to the same year as Cathcart Park and
the estimate is set with the assumption that they would be doing the majority of the work in-house
along with some engineering help. She stated that there has been discussion about spending
some time on the Master Plan and coming forward with a project in 2028, but allowing the funds
to build up a bit between the projects.
The Commission reviewed more details from the proposed CIP.
Planning Director Darling suggested that during the next Park Tour that the Commission make
sure that they compared Cathcart and Freeman North and consider which one should be the next
project. She reminded the Commission that all of the numbers included in the table were very
general.
Chair Hirner asked if there was anything the City could do, from a maintenance perspective, to
protect the poured in place rubber surfaces, so they would last longer.
Planning Director Darling explained that there really was not much that could be done.
Chair Hirner asked if there were things that have come up at a staff level that should be added to
the CIP.
Planning Director Darling stated that they have discussed the possibility of adding gaga ball pits
at Cathcart and Manor Park and has priced them out around $3,000 each, but noted that dollar
amount was probably too low to be included in the CIP.
Chair Hirner asked staff to make sure that they are keeping an eye on the warming house in
Cathcart because if it starts to show some wear, he wants to make sure that it finds a spot on the
CIP for replacement.
Commissioner Gallivan asked about plans for pickleball.
Planning Director Darling explained that all of the tennis courts are currently lined for pickleball,
but noted that they do not have the specialty lower set nets. She clarified that the courts are
striped for both tennis and pickleball and are being used quite a bit.
Commissioner Levy asked if when it was time for the nets to be replaced if there may be an option
to purchase adjustable nets that could be cranked up or down, as needed.
City Engineer Budde explained that since the City has worked on the courts in Badger Park, what
is most likely happening, it is set up for tennis with permanent nets, but then on each half of a
court it is striped for pickleball. He stated that most people bring their own portable nets so they
can play at the appropriate height. He explained that his understanding is that the height of the
nets is a sticking point for some and stated that he has heard of other cities that have a storage
locker at the facility where they can store their nets on site. He stated that he believes this is
similar to what is currently being done at the lacrosse field.
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2022
PAGE 3 OF 5
Planning Director Darling confirmed that lacrosse and football associations both have some
equipment that is stored on site.
Chair Hirner noted that because the Park Commission did a deep dive into the CIP last year and
moved various projects around, he feels things are still in pretty good shape.
Planning Director Darling explained that the only changes in front of Commission is the Cathcart
Playground and the Southshore Master Plan were pushed back by one year in order to ensure
that there was an adequate amount of funds for the projects.
Gallivan moved to recommend approval of the Parks CIP, as presented, with the changes
moving the Cathcart playground equipment to 2025 and the Southshore Park Master Plan
to 2025. Hirner seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0.
B. Shorewood Safe Routes to School
City Engineer Budde stated that in 2021, the City was awarded a Safe Routes to School Grant
through MnDOT. He explained that the focus was on Excelsior Elementary and routes within a 1
mile radius and noted that the catalyst for this was the Galpin Lake road and sidewalk project. He
noted that the plans were completed this year and looked at the infrastructure and the
programming which would be more internal to the school in ways to encourage people to ride
bikes or walk to school. He gave an overview of the 6 Es: Equity; Engagement; Evaluation;
Education; Encouragement; and Engineering. He reviewed the data that was gathered as part of
the planning process. He stated that this information does not really take it to the next level and
determine its cost or how it can be implemented. He explained that a next step will require
somebody to take action, but noted that it is great that this document has been completed because
it offers the opportunity now for entities to go after the next round of funding. He stated that
MnDOT has recently completed a road safety audit for Highway 7 and these two documents
paired together, in his opinion, really ‘T’ the City up to be a good spot to pursue some funding.
He stated that for now this study is a resource to help the City pick and prioritize projects.
Commissioner Levy asked if this was initiated by Excelsior Elementary.
City Engineer Budde stated that it was initiated by the City of Shorewood.
Commissioner Levy asked whether something similar would be done for other schools such as
Minnewashta and Deephaven.
City Engineer Budde stated that there could have been one done for each school and reiterated
that the driver for Shorewood was the Galpin Lake Road piece so it was focused on this location,
but other areas could go through a similar process.
Planning Director Darling noted that the new Strawberry Lane reconstruction project will include
nd
sidewalks that extend all the way from Smithtown Road to 62 Street West both completing a
safe routes to school project and a planned trail in the comprehensive plan.
Commissioner Levy asked if this took into consideration what was already done planning for trail
connections in 2011.
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2022
PAGE 4 OF 5
City Engineer Budde confirmed that this is building on that work and was creating a bit more of
the story in order to go after some of the next steps and future funding.
Chair Hirner stated that he would find it interesting to see this same information for some of the
other schools. He stated that where he lives, the sidewalks are in place from Shorewood’s
perspective, but as you go up Vine Hill towards the high school, the sidewalks just end so the
people walking just transition to the street. He reiterated that he felt this report was good, but
would like to see it done for other areas as well, so there is more of a regional plan for safe routes
to school.
City Engineer Budde stated that he believes that can happen through the next round of
Comprehensive Plan work.
Commissioner Gallivan stated that he lives behind Galpin Lake on Galpin Lane. He noted that
he was on the advisory committee that was involved in meeting with State staff on this issue and
thanked the City for making the effort to apply this grant. He explained that he agreed that
gathering this data has been an important step. He stated that part of the reason that the data
shows that there are not a lot of pedestrian related accidents is because everyone knows that
once they have a close encounter, they do not do that same thing again. He stated that with all
the development that is going in on the Chanhassen side, it is becoming more and more of an
issue and producing more and more traffic. He stated that they do not walk their daughter or dog
in the neighborhood because of all of the traffic. He noted that there is a sidewalk from
Chanhassen that goes up to the border and just stops. He stated that he was happy to see that
the recommendation within this report included building a sidewalk along Highway 7 up to Oak
Street, however it you cannot safely get to that sidewalk there would be no point in it because
nobody will use that stretch of sidewalk if they cannot get there safely. He stated that what
frustrates him with this report is that there has been 20 years of advocacy by the Galpin Lake
area and noted that there is even a current petition that has about 700 signatures saying that this
is critical to them. He noted that the City Council has voted numerous times saying that this is a
priority. Mayor Labadie has testified in front of the State legislature that this is a priority. He
stressed that the State legislature, regardless of party affiliation, have also stated that this is a
priority and included it in their request for bonding. He stated that part of the feedback was that
this report needed to be done in order to increase the chances of getting it and the purpose of the
grant was specifically targeted towards that project. He stated that through the survey process,
the results came back that people would walk more if they had safe intersections and sidewalks.
The three projects that they acknowledge were most requested was Mill Street, Highway 7, and
Galpin Lake Road. He stated that Galpin Lake Road was once again confirmed to be a priority,
however, when it came down to it, they said it would be put as a low priority because of how they
measure ‘equity’. He stated that Shorewood is not the most diverse community but even using
their heat maps and the CDC social vulnerability index, one of the bright purple areas is right
along Lake Minnetonka where the lowest home price on Zillow is $1.76 million which is smack
dab in the middle of the social vulnerability index. He stated that they talk about other factors
beyond ethnicity and race that go into this, including age and senior populations, however, there
is a senior living facility very near Galpin Lake Road that they did not seem to care about. He
expressed his frustration that this seems like an example where people said what they felt was a
priority, but State staff turned around and told them, “We know better”. He noted that there is
nothing in the statute that says that what their version of equity should be the overarching principle
in how these grants are determined but that is how they decided to interpret it. He stated that it
feels as though they have simply decided what was important and basically said to heck with what
the community says. He stated that they are laying aside the feedback from the people who have

lived here to 20 years, what the survey says, what the petition says, what the City Council has
said, what Mayor Labadie, and what the State legislature has said. He stated that he wants it on
record that he would encourage the City Council and Mayor Labadie to keep pushing so it can
get done, because otherwise someone is going to get hurt there because it is very dangerous.
Chair Hirner reiterated that this information would be great to have for the other schools in the
area.

Re: Freeman Park Trails
Attachments: Graphic and Estimates
Videos of Freeman Park trail conditions may be found on the city’s website by selecting:
Government/City Departments/Parks/Trails and scrolling to the bottom of the page.
The attached Plan for the Freeman Park Trail Reconstruction is a summary of the project. Each segment
was reviewed separately. The estimates for the project are also attached. We are looking for guidance on
several options so that we know what needs to be included in the project.
The estimates are higher than estimated several years back and the CIP would be adjusted for the project
when it is distributed to the City Council. To cover the additional cost, staff will be exploring various
grants, requesting to use federal dollars, and additional transfers from the reserve funds. Because this
project will be competing with several other important infrastructure projects for reserve and federal funds,
if the funding for the full project is not secured, the project could be split into multiple phases to be
accomplished, (north and south).
The Trail Reconstruction Project
The red segment is the portion of the trail that would be paid for by the Three Rivers Park District and built
to their specifications. The engineer’s estimate for this trail construction/reconstruction is $300,617.
The yellow segments are all existing trails. The estimate for these trails is $293,831. The estimates are
prepared assuming the trails would be eight feet wide rather than the current 4-5 feet. However, there
could be some economy in the estimate as the trails near and within wetland areas cannot be expanded
without wetland impact. The estimates are much higher than anticipated and require an increase in the
amount included in the CIP for the project.
There are also a few optional trail segments as well:
The dark blue trail on the north side of the project - repaving this trail was not included in with the yellow
coded trails as the trail is duplicated by the Three Rivers Park District project. There are a few options for
this trail, including:
1. Reconstruction in the same location at the same width (due to potential wetland impacts).
Likely ±$80,000.
2. Reconstruct the subgrade and add class 5 gravel or establish turf for a natural trail experience.
The cost would be about $6,000 for the removal of the pavement plus the cost to add more
gravel or topsoil for grass seed.
Segment J: Segment J is currently unpaved and connects and neighborhood entry, between two ball
diamonds and towards the parking area. This trail is the only unpaved trail proposed to be paved. If the
commission would like to pave the area at this time, the cost would be about $21,000.
Gold segment between E and F: This area is an old roadbed that was previously used for vehicle traffic
connecting the north and south segments of the park. Now it is for pedestrian access only, except for
emergency and maintenance vehicles and is in poor shape. This connection could be reduced to 12 feet and
reconstructed for its current purpose. This work would cost about $34,736.
Please provide your input on the options for the project so that staff can better estimate the total project cost
for the CIP and finalize the plans.

Re: Deterring Vandalism
Attachments: FlashCAM Packet
Background: The City of Shorewood has experienced an increase in the level of
vandalism and the associated costs of repairs to the restrooms at Manor Park. Staff
have prepared a selection of options for deterring vandalism for the Parks Commission
review. Options include: security camera similar to the one set to be installed at Badger
Park, a FlashCAM solar powered motion censored camera, public safety enforcement
and/or a community mural.
Security Camera: $9,000; $50 annually for recurring monitoring fees
(A two-camera video surveillance system)
2-5mp high resolution vandal resistant dome cameras with varifocal lenses.
Wall hanging NVR lock box
20 inch monitor
Hanwha NVR with 30 days of video storage
UPS for Video System- Backup Power and Surge Protection
FlashCAM: $7,850
(A solar-powered, portable, motion-sensing camera with voice recording)
Completely portable and self-sustaining: solar-charged and easy to move.
No internet network required, photos are received via Bluetooth.
Powerful active deterrence, stopping it before it happens is the goal.
High-resolution photo: technology is proven to provide prosecutable photos and
can ID a suspect from 100’s of feet away.
Page 2
Public Safety Enforcement:
Requesting South Lake Minnetonka Police Department to increase patrol at Manor
Park.
Community Mural: $2,000 - $10,000
Engaging the community to create a mural in Manor Park in the bathrooms and/or on
the exterior of the building. Research has shown that art deters vandalism by removing
the blank canvas that attracts vandals in the first place. It also creates a relationship
with the space and can provide an approach to prevent vandalism, improve park
amenities, engage residents young and old as well as strengthen community pride.
Grants may be obtained to help cover the expenses.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends a dual approach of the FlashCAM and a
community mural.
Options: The Parks Commission should review the options and send a
recommendation to staff and the City Council.
Next Steps and Timeline: Following the Park Commission review and
recommendations, the matter will be placed on a City Council agenda for final decision.

I. OBJECTIVE:
Addressing Nuisance Crimes and Unwanted Activity. Nuisance crimes are chronic issues nationwide costing
city and state parks millions of dollars annually. Specifically, the unwanted activity within Shorewood Parks are
concerns, and it may be only a matter of time before an incident occurs that will cost the parks and recreation
department significant time and materials to mitigate not to mention the costly distractions to manpower and
mission. Besides wasting precious resources and funding, it also raises concerns about overall public safety,
declining property value and the well-being of the community.
II. SCOPE OF SOLUTION:
A key element in proactively fighting nuisance crimes such as: vandalism,
Addressing Crime at the Source.
trespassing, illegal dumping, metal/equipment theft and graffiti, is to address the issue directly at the source -
the criminals themselves. It is, of course, important to quickly reverse the damages resulting from the crime, but
if the culprit has not been addressed directly; they most likely will strike again. This is a common challenge that
many parks encounter, investing thousands of dollars into the resources and materials to reverse the damages,
yet not stopping the criminal or, if warranted, identifying and prosecuting them. Ultimately the issue will persist
unless the culprit is truly deterred.
For over 18 years, Q-Star Technology has
The FlashCAM Is a Proactive Solution to Stop Nuisance Crimes.
been helping city and state parks across the country address issues of nuisance crimes with the FlashCAM
portable crime deterrent systems. The FlashCAM is a crime fighting tool designed specifically to protect city
and state parks from nuisance crimes such as graffiti, vandalism, illegal dumping, metal/equipment theft and
other unwanted activities. These types of crimes destroy property, increase liability risks and deplete precious
resources and budgets. The longer these issues are not addressed, the bigger the problem becomes.
Since the FlashCAM is a deterrent system rather than surveillance set up, the
High Resolution Imaging.
security efforts are proactive instead of reactive to the crime. The unique features (i.e.: motion-triggered strobe
flash and customizable voice warning) stop the criminals before they can strike. The system also captures high
resolution (24 megapixel) images of the activity, suspects and license plates, even in complete darkness
(approx. 250 ft.). The clarity of the captured images allows law enforcement to identify and prosecute these
criminals with this key evidence.

contained. There is no hard wiring required with the solar-charged battery. This simplifies installations and
system movement. Many FlashCAM users partner with other departments within their community to rotate
their systems to various locations such as: recreation areas, pavilions, power substations, recycling facilities,
bridges/highways, water reservoirs, historical monuments etc. The portability and ease of installation of the
FlashCAM, as well as the versatility on a range of applications, allow parks to develop a comprehensive
program to combat nuisance crimes within their community in even the most remote locations.

Optional onsite consultation services are available through additional purchase.
Community Impact
crime rate to historic lows in New York City, suggests that by addressing lesser crimes such as vandalism the
overall crime rate can be lowered by creating an environment that encourages community involvement and
discourages criminal activity. This FlashCAM program will thus help create awareness in residents as well as
the would-be criminals that crime will not be tolerated within Shorewood Parks. This is the real key to
addressing this issue. One could call this: Behavioral Modification through Forced Accountability!
The long-term benefit of stopping nuisance crimes at the source of the issue not only helps protect this specific
location from any further damage but it also helps maintain a safe and healthy environment for the entire
community.

-star is by far one of the best. My field officers enjoy the fact that
deployment and setup are quick and easy. The follow up photograph download process is user friendly,
but what truly sets this system apart is the clarity of the photographs and the ability to zoom is said
photographs. My officers were working one incident involving theft from one of our 17 trash drop off
centers. After deployment of the system, my officers were able to take a photograph from the camera
photograph and match it up to a previous booking photo. Therefore, allowing us the ability to identify
the individual. These systems can be an asset to law enforcement agency both urban and rural tacking

"Everywhere the FlashCAM is placed vandalism drops dramatically. The voice by the camera
turns the vandals away. We have many cases studies that show vandalism drops where the
FlashCAM is placed. For example, there was this air condition company that got vandalized
regularly every month by gangs including the Latin Kings. Once the FlashCAM was up the

"The FlashCAM has proven beneficial for us. We were having problems in an Alleyway with
some negative behavior (loitering, graffiti, urinating, etc) once we put the FlashCAM up the
problem went away. We moved it to a house that was getting lots of calls with some negative
behavior, since we put the FlashCAM up there, we haven't got any calls. We have another
FlashCAM at a parking lot near a dollar store that was getting auto theft, the FlashCAM has
proved useful there too. I like that fact you can just pop the FlashCAM anywhere and move it
around also that you can program when you want it to trigger"

FlashCAM has

been working out well for us. It has noticeably decreased vandalism in areas prone to vandalism.
We can even clearly see the vandals with the high-quality photos. There was this lighthouse that
would get vandalism regularly, since we put the FlashCAM the vandalism drastically decreased.
There was an area prone to dumping almost every day, now there is no dumping in that area.
