July 2, 1980 Park Board Minutes <br />Page 3 <br />Gunderman asked the Park Board:for their comments. <br />Dahl said she prefers the entrance and free skating. as is. <br />With landscaping and a little time the free skating area <br />will improve. Dahl liked the picnic area away from the <br />parking lot. <br />Olson feels the same as Dahl. The free skating area is <br />practical where it is. It would also be practical to leave <br />the entrance as it is. Liked the picnic area as in the first <br />drawing away from the parking lot. <br />Van Hatten would like free skating close to the shelter building. <br />The picnic. area is ok as is or put it north of the tennis courts. <br />Entrance could be on the other side of the sign. Have two road- <br />ways one for entrance and one exit. <br />Carlson asked. if we could afford to give up the spaces used for <br />parking as shown in the second drawing. <br />Anderson stated that the first two drawings show the lot holding <br />about 60 cars. The second two drawings show the lot holding <br />about 75-.100 cars. <br />Carlson stated he liked the free skating where it is now.. Parents <br />like to drop their kids-.off and pick them up and if it were too <br />far from the. shelter building the parents would have to take a <br />hike to find their kids,- Carlson likes the pien:ic area close to <br />the water. Likes the present driveway with speed bumps because <br />it's the safest.. Would liketo see a separate entrance and <br />exit. <br />Grimshaw favors the first drawing - likes the speed bumps. Keep <br />the curved entrance but maybe remove half of 'the berm. Likes <br />the picnic area bythe wa er-. Likesthe free skating where it <br />is. With a new entrance it would improve the looks. <br />Johnson stated he kept track of the positive and negative re- <br />marks from people on the proposals. <br />FREE SKATING WEST SIDE <br />Positives <br />-Soil conditions have been proven. <br />-Lower:future maintenance costs <br />-Virtually all residents .favor this ocation <br />-Its near the'parkng for pick up of children. <br />-Nicer picnic location to the eas as opposed to being right <br />next to the parking area. <br />-Soccer area could be used in same area as free skating <br />
