met with Park Commissioners Glen Allen, Herb Horn and
MOTION: Commissioner Allen, seconded by Commissioner
Horn to authorize Director Dearborn to proceed with the updated survey. Motion carried unanimously.
Ron Krueger then requested the Commission to approve
the request to bid out the new lawn mower which was approved to purchase in
2003. MOTION: Commissioner Allen,
seconded by Commissioner Holtz to approve the bidding process for the new
lawnmower.
The
Park Foreman Ron Pavlak presented the Commission
with examples of material and a price guide to study the approach for
physically challenged users of playground equipment. The “transfer pad” is made out of a
rubberized material and will allow access to the play sets. In rough estimates
for the number of pads we need to update each park for this access would be
approximately $2,100. After review a
motion was voiced for this purchase.
MOTION: Commissioner Zaborsky, seconded by Commissioner Kuehn to proceed
with ordering the transfer pads for all the parks as needed. Motion carried unanimously.
Commissioner Allen has been trying to contact the relatives of Roland Moseng. At this time no response has been returned. Director of Community Development George Dearborn will prepare a letter explaining the current zoning and future land use plans for this property.
