January 2, 1991 Park Board Minutes <br />5 <br />Anderson stated that some of the equipment could be modified. <br />The playground equipment supplier (Game Time) said they have been <br />doing this more frequently in the last two years. Before we put <br />it in the CIP we will have a representative from the playground <br />equipment supplier here and we will know exactly what the costs <br />will be. <br />Anderson said he would like a recommendation from the Park Board. <br />Olson said we could acknowledge that we received the information <br />from the Human Rights Commission and that the Park Board believes <br />there is a need for some modification and we will monitor it. <br />Johnson feels this should be done along with the CIP. <br />Van Hatten said as a general motion we could go on record as <br />favoring the concept. <br />Johnson felt uncomfortable with that before knowing how much <br />money will be needed. <br />Olson agreed that costs would need to be known before anything <br />could be done. <br />Carlson suggested approving the concept that the equipment be <br />both handicap accessible and usable. <br />Olson commented that the Council minutes state that the Park <br />Board review and include this in the upcoming CIP. <br />Carlson said the Human Rights Commission has already agreed on <br />the concept that there be handicapped accessibility to the play <br />equipment at Hansen. <br />Anderson said the process was that the Human Rights Commission <br />met in November. The minutes went to the City Council in <br />December and the copy of the cover letter we received went with <br />it. <br />Johnson feels that the Park .Board should acknowledge that the <br />letter was received and discuss the handicap accessibility with <br />the CIP. <br />Van Hatten said that does not state our intention which is that <br />we would like to provide handicap accessibility to the playground <br />equipment. <br />
