for their C -ball program which i.s for 9-10 year old boys_. The
prograam has expanded to the point that one pitching machine is
not enough. Their Association cannot afford to pay for the
installation as well as the. purchase of the extra pitching
machine After some discussion, it. was agreed that the
Baseball -Softball Association would pay, the City back, over a
three-yea.r period, the estimated $1,900 cost to install
underground electricity to two mounds at LaCompte Playfield,
The Association was also willing to allow the City use of the
pitching machines in exchange for reducing the amount of money
the Association :ie:s to pay back.. A MOTION WAS MADE BY
COMMISSIONER LATOUR AND SECONDED. BY COMMISSIONER REED TO LOAN;
THE PLY*0UTH-WAYZATA BASEBALL/SOFTBALL ASSOCIATION $1,900 UP

Page; 12
swimming program we run at Waysat.a East Jr High. we also
will be offering beach swi,mmind lessons this year at Parkers
Lake beach and the Waysa.ta Beach. Other changes tncl,ude our
mobile PITS program which will have f•wsr stops this year, due
to the fact that we have added `a new program called 'PIT STOP,'
which is a stationary Playground in the Strsats Program that
will take place at four of our park shelters this tumor. The
same activities will take place at PIT --STOP, but leaders will
be at these locations for three hours on their assigned, days.
rather than two hours, which is the length of time the mobile
FITS wagons are at their designated sites.. Another new
program being offsred this summer is "Making Tracks," a full
day -hong d'aycamp program that will be helot at Zachary Park,
Monday through Friday, for eight weeks. Each week starts a
new program with a new theme. The camp hours will be 9-.01
a,..m, to 5:00 ;p.m,. with extended hours of 7,00 to 6:00, for
those desiring that kind of schedule. There: will be an extra
10 per week charge for the extended program. Thisdaycamp
is being offered as an alternative to North Star Day Camp
which is no longer, available. Ruth also discussed the program
ym, Swim i Movie Days" which were held at Wayzata East, Jr..
High on April l and 2 for children, 3 to 15, Last year this
program attracted only a few children. This year, more than
100 kids attendedboth days. Ruth will be offering this
activity at Plymouth Jr. High on April 17 and is expecting
even more attendance since both District. 281 and 2:84 schools
will be ou.t that day. Ruth stated that Plymouth Park and
Recreation has become an affiliate of the National Youth
Soccer Coaches Association (NYSCA) and that we would be
holding our first clinic for youth coaches next week,
Nary Patterson was present at the meeting and indicated that,
she had just completed, her second year of revenue management
school a.nd is now a graduate of that program,. She stated that
the arts program co-sponsored by Plymouth, the Art Center of
Minnesota, and Wayzata Community Education was a big
disappointment this winter, when very low attendance turned
out for the Metropolitan Boys choir concert at Wayzata Senior
High. Other jointly sponsored arts programs in the past have
been very succes.sfui, to she wasn't sure why this particular
event. failed. Mary indicated that many new programs are being
offered this summer, and the summer brochure will be going to
the post office on or about April 24.
a. REPORT ON PAST COUNCIL ACTION'
a. Approved Final Pians and Specifications -Parker: Lake. Final
plans` and specifications were approved' for Parkers Lake by the
City Council, and bids are scheduled to be opened on April 14

b. Three Neighborhood Parks Update. Council approved the plans
and specifications for the three neighborhood parks with the:
PRAc Minutes, 4,(9/8,7

condition that staff would notify the residents of the County
Road 41 park that a cable tide is being considered for their
park. This same issue was discussed by PRAC members.. It was
their unanimous suggestion that staff contact residents
through the homeowner: association "prior to ordering; thh cable
ride.
C. Plymouth Creek Park Master Plan - Brauer and Assoc. Paul
F;jare shared plans with the Commission showing four possible`
sites %or the proposed community center. During his
presentation, Director Stank simultaneously showed the
commissioners video tape of each site. A chart showing the
weights and values of each site was also explained and
discussed. Following a lengthy discussion on the pro's and
con's of all four sites, a secret ballot was taken. by members
of PRAC, ranking the sites. Clearly, site 03 was their first
preferenco, and site #4 was their last, choice. Based on the
reaults of the balloting, it was suggested that staff research
site e3 to determine if it can be rezoned and what it will
cost to purchase the property. A MOTION WAS MADE BY
COMMISSIONER ROSEN' AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BEACH TO
RECOMMEND A WORKING SESSION BETWEEN PRAC, BRAUER' AND THE CITY'
COUNCIL, AT WHICH TIME PAUL FJARE WOULD MAKE THE SAME
PRESENTATION TO THE COUNCIL THAT HE; HAD 'MADE TO PRAC THAT
EVENING. The motion carried with al.l ayes. Director Blank
pointed out that the Council probably would not want to hold
such a session. until after the April 28 fire station
referendum..
d. 1887 Trail Construction Update. Director Blank, had no news to
report. on this item.
e. Parkers lake Bathhouse -Del Erickson. Architects. Del Ericksot,
displayed three schemes for a ,proposed bathhouse at. Parkers
Lake and explained the differences, One scheme shows a one
i level bathhouse, the second scheme shows a two level, and the
third scheme shows a split level bathhouse. All schemes, show
a wooden dock extending out over the water's edge along the
beach, which was a concern to Chair Edwards. Director Blank
cautioned against getting too involved at this stage in any
parti.cula.r features, since the -re will be many more
opportunities'to review plans and make Auggestions for
changes. Del Erickson then explained the costs associated
with the three schemer, and stated that to build phase 11 at a
later date would increase the costs. by 20-25%. The cost to
build a phase I basic bathhouse would be approximately
81.66,300, Add to that one large and one small picnic shelter
and the cost becomes approximately $218,300, Director Blank
indicated that based on these cost estimates, he would be
comfortable building a, phase I bathhouse at this time. A,
MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER REED AND SECONDED BY
COMMISSIONER BAUMAN TO RECOMMEND BUILDING A PHASE I BATHHOUSE
AND TWO PICNIC SHELTERS. The motion carried with all ayes.
Commissioner Rosen pointed out that the shelters; should be

b, Park: Tour. The annual parks tour has been set for Thursday,.
May 7, with the bus leaving the City Center parking lot at
9:13 p,m. There will be a box supper served on the bus,. The
tour should take approximately three hours,
C. 1988.LCMR/LAWCON Grant Application.. Director Blank stated
that a 1988 LCMR/LAWCON grant is going to be written to
purchase a house located within the proposed West Medicine
Lake City Park, Writing a grant application to purchase a
house involves more red tape, because homeowner must be
relocated and the costs arsociated with this must come from
the grant as well. if we don't submit a grant application
this year, we will have to wain until 19189 for another chance
at West Medicine Lake City Park. Commissioners, agreed that
this was the best way to go with the 1988 grant application.
d. Lions Park. Play Equipment. Residents have been calling
regarding the possibility of adding more play equipment to
Lions Park this year. Director Blank reminded commissioners
that they approved an expenditure of 810,000 in 1987 for
additional equipment at this park. It was suggested by the
Commission that staff' write to the residents in the area of
Lions Park inviting their input on what types of play
equipment they would like to have installed and to report back
the results at the May meeting..
e, Imperial Hills Park Bicycle Path. Several residents living
along Troy Lane have indicated to staff they do not wish to
have a proposed bicycle path constructed along their street
Leading to imperial Hills Park., Troy Lane is a private street
maintained by the residents, and they do not wish to encourage
extra traffic caused by visitors to and from the park. A
MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER ROSEN AND SECONDED BY
COMMI'SStONER ANDERSON RECOMMENDING THAT STAFF DELAY
INDEFINITELY THE CONSTRUCTION OF A BiCYCLE PATH FROM TROY LANE.

PARKER'S LACE BATT? HOUSE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM.
At the April 20 Council meeting, the Council, spent a good deal of time
discussing the Parker's Lake bath house construction program.
Following; discussion of the project, particularly the potential for
phasing the construction of the bath house, the. Council determined
that additional CQn3 deration should be given to completing proposed
Phases 1 and 2 at this time, providing additional funding~ sources
could be identified. I suggested the possibility of using federal
revenue sharing monies to assist in financing this protect. The
architect for this project, Del Erickson, has been working since April
20 on developing additional design studies for the project. Eric
Blank informs me that the design studies to date suggest that the
project, including the two picnic shelters and other related
professional fees, will cost approximately $395,000.
Funding for this phase of the overall Parker's Lake park improvement
project have been contemplated to come from the park dedication fund.
Thatfund has a currentunappropriated balance of approximately
440,000. In developing the anticipated financing for this protect,
the Park and Recreation Director has been looking at approximately
2009000 coming from the park dedication fund. Based upon the cost
estimates of the project, that would leave a funding gap of $195,600.
The City's revenue sharing funds have been used over the years for
capital improvement projects of major significance. Most recently the
council has authorized the appropriation of $300,000 for Fire Station
No. 3 improvements which funds are now encumbered for this project.
The Finance Department informs me that the. present unemcumibered
balance in the revenue sharing account is $425,30&. The Council is
aware that the federal government has terminated the revenue sharing
program, and accordingly there will be no more funds flowing to this
account. The public works reserve fund has a fund balance of
100,000, resulting from a transfer of 1986 net operating revenues.
I believe the Council is correct in seeking to complete the Parker's
Lake construction program in one phase rather than two. The economies
of this approach, as well as "finishing" the project, outweigh any
advantage of delay. Based upon the estimates of $395,000 for the
completion of the project, I recommend that the Council approve the
allocation of $250,000 from park dedication funds, $100,000 from
revenue sharing, and $45,000 from the public works reserve fund.

Deas Johns
In 1986, residents liv".ng near the Lions neighborhood park requested that
the City consider adding more play equipment to Lions Dark.. With this in
mind, the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission approved a capital improve-
ments program, which included $10,000 for the installation.of additional
equipment at Lions Park in 1987. Recently, the Commission authorized staff
to proceed with; implementing the requested playground improvements. This
letter is intended as notification to the Lions Club that we are considering
such improvements at this time, and further, soliciting any interest from
the Lions Club with regard to further contributions to the upgrading of
Lions Park.
At this time, I expect the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission.will b
taking formal action on this project at their May 14 meeting. If possible,,
it would be helpful if the Lions Club could give some indication to us,
prior to that time, of any interest they may have in,contributing to this
project.
Please thank the Lions Club for all of their past contributions to City of
Plymouth parks. We look forward to working with them in the future.
Sincerely,

RESIDENTS COMMENTS ON LIONS PARK IMPROVEMENTS
1. The park is very smallo I would hope additions would be kept to a minimum.
it is disheartening to see what you hr..ve done to the County Road 6 side of
Parkers Lake..
2. Thank you for asking. I think that truly shows you are interested in what
the people want.
3. The cable ride in Circle Park has a poor and perhaps even hazardous design,
A.ramp at each end is far superior, I do feel that some I've seen have a
superior plan (i.e., in park midway between 42nd & 36th. Ave on. Boone).
I feel the existing sand pit area in which the swing sets are located will
need to be enlarged to accommodate the needed equipment, possibly at the
west end toward.the skating rink area. It it would allow us more equipment,
we would: be willing to donate some assistance in the construction process.
4. We think after talking to other neighbors that there should be more play --
ground equipment for children. However, our junior high and senior high
boys enjoy the basketball area very much and play there alot. They always
comment they wish it could be "standard" height, thus it would need to be
raised. Could that be done, so something could be there specifically for
kids that age? The basketball area is almost always used by junior high,
senior high and college kids, and it would.be nice to be regular height,
if possible.

Dear Dons: Park Area Residents.;
Last year residents in your area requested that the; Park and Recreation Advisory
Commission consider adding more playground equipment to the Lions neighborhood
park. With that request in mind, the Park; and Recreation Advisory Commission
and City Council .included money in the current capital improvements budget
for making an improvement at Lions, Park. Specifically, the request was for
the City to install, a climbing piece of equipment: that would be attractive
to, elementary age children. This new equipment would go generally in the
area where the existing swingsets are located.. We would hope to do this in
a manner which would not disrupt any trees, if possible.
In doing our research and planning for this park improvement, it would be
most helpful if you would fill out the questionnaire at the bottom of this sheet
and return it to us
Thank you for your time and interest in this matter. If I can be of further
assistance to you, please call me at 559-2800 x 255.
Sincerely,
Eric J. Blank:, Director

SUBJECT: PLYMOUTH CREEK PARK - SELECTION OF COMMUNITY CENTER LOCATION
The Park and Recreation Advisory Commission met with Paul Fjare of
Brauer and Associates on Thursday, April 9, to review Brauer's report,
with regard to the future siting of the community center within Plymouth
Creek Park. At the conclusion of this review and discussion, the Commission
took, a secret vote;, the results of which indicated that the current theme
center site at Plymouth Boulevard and 37th Avenue was the first choice of
the Commission,.
The Commission felt that it was important enough that this item be presented
in a work session to the Councli with the Commission in attendance. There-
fore, they have requested that I communicate to the Mayor and C•:ty Council
their request for a study session to review this subject. I believe a.
5:30-7:30 time frame prior to c Monday night Council meeting would bP
adequate to cover this material. Paul Ejare of Brauer is awaiting the
selection of a date and time to make this presentation.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Goldetsky
Thank you for your kind letter dated April 28, 1987. We are very excited
about adding the Rolling Hills park to our park system, and that you have
chosen Plymouth as your place to reside.
In answer to your questions, I am happy to reply that we will be using the
pea gravel surface in the children's play area for safety 'reasons. Secondly,
our city forester will start planting this fall extensively throughout the
Rolling Hills park, which we hope will provide adequate shade in those
appropriate areas. However, our plan does call fo}: one large open field
area to be, used for games such as soccer, softball, kite flying, etc.
Again, let me welcome you to Plymouth, and if you have any further questions
or concerns please feel free to contact me at (612) 559-2800 x 265.

Dear hr. Blank,
We are moving to Plymouth from a Chicago suburb and have been very
impressed withthe area. We have visited city hall and. have: found
the people in the 21annin4p parks and recreation, fire and police
departments very helpful, informative, friendly and welcoming. We
have visited the park across, from Zachary Lane Elementary School, and
o - children found it delightful. We understand a new park is
plained for the Rolling Hills area this summer. We are building in
the adjoining area, the Wild Wings subdivision, and are excited about
having a park so close by.
We have been involved in a. program here in the Morton Grove area
called "Safety Town", a safety educational training pLogram for 4-6
year olds We have been involved iii park planning and have made
recommendations to local. park districts regarding ,safety and
planning. There are two questions that interest us regarding the
plans for the Rolling Hills area park, Will there be any area of
shade, either in the form of trees or overhangs, in the park? And
will the surface of the tot lot be the 3/4 inch gravel base similar
to that used in the park on Zachary Lane= If a, specific surface has.
not been picked out for the tot lot, please note the enclosed copies
from the U. S. Consumer Prod%:,;' Cafety Commission Handbook for Public.
Playground.Safety. It reco n, ds Irand, wood chips or pea gravel for
the top surface as the safes,, .-oice.
The plans for the Rolling Hil:;ta park area look beautiful and we are
looking forward to living nearby and frequently visiting it. Thank
you for your time and consideration.

Gentlem4 n.:
I have lived on the west side of Medicine Lake for almost
ten years now. During these years I have been concerned
about the safety of pedestrians and bicyclists along our
road. I now have a family and with the tremendous increase
in traffic on this stretch ofroad, I am very anxious to
see the bike path completed..
Through talking with my neighbors, I have found out that
you consider my property to be a troublesome stretch in
your plans for continuing the path past my property.. Although
my property may pose some thought and planning, I think
I have some viable solutions to this problem to discuss
with you. We can get the bike path in and at the same time
create an acceptable and safe road access and parking
situation for me.
If you are interested in discussing your plans for the path
at this time, please contact me and we can discuss our
options. We are into another summer without a safe West
Medicine Lake drive; let it be out last. I look forward
to hearing from you.
Yours very truly,
Richard T. Hatfield
