Staff: Wensmanntalked about sun shade features. Purchase price would be between $5,000 and $25,0000.
Another option is to plant fast growing trees to keep the natural feel of Klinefelter Park. Board decided to plant
fast growing trees instead of shades at this point.
Gaga ball will be delayed until spring
Klinefelter Park: Wensmann reported that the trail will be redone. City engineer does have numbers worked out
for projects. Still waiting on bids.
Discussion was held about the type of restroom. Decision was made to get a bid on a permanent two room unit
that would include a urinal, a toilet, changing station and running water in each, with a water fountain out front.
Centennial Park:Juell reported on the Community Night. About 80-90 people were in attendance. Wensmann
spoke to the group about park rules and answered questions. Police officers were introduced and talked to the
group. Fire fighters were introduced and talked about their jobs. People went and checked out the fire truck and
police car. We provided burgers,chips and water (donated by Traut Wells). Some families brought water and
pop to share. Cultural Bridges brought some Sambuusa to share as well as some prizes for kids’ games that
were played. Older boys came to play basketball and we discussed with them the importance of cleaning up
the area when they finish playing.
Discussion about removing the volleyball court and replacing with a basketball court. Soccer field option was
discussed and decided it was not flat enough. Decision was made to remove the volleyball court and try to get
a basketball court in its place. Will try to get concrete donated.
Millstream Ball Fields:Ryan is having trouble getting estimates on removal of fencing. Short discussion on what
to do with the fields, fix and keep or put something else in there. Pickleball was discussed as well as skate
park, possibly update soccer field, keep one softball field.
rd
Winterfest: Medallion hunt will start a week before the Fest, about Jan 23. We will have a kickoff of some kind
th
on Friday, January 28. If the medallion is found by then, the prize will be awarded at that time. We will talk to a
couple bar owners to see if they will host some activities both Friday and Saturday night. Saturday during the
day we are looking at doing dog sled rides, skating, snow shoeing, cross country skiing, sledding, snow art,
kids crafts, hot coco, face painting. Music at the sledding/skating park. Movie on the side of the building Friday
night. Find businesses willing to host an event and have their name ona sign. Possibly close part of the street
downtown for activities.

Park Board Agenda Item
MEETING DATE:October , 2021
AGENDA ITEM:
Finance Report
SUBMITTED BY:Finance
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE/COUNCILRECOMMENDATION: Council approved
2021 budget on December 7, 2020.
PREVIOUS PARK BOARDACTION: None
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:Enclosed you will find the reconciled financial reports through
September 30, 2021. After designated funds are set aside, the Park fund undesignated balance is
$44,766.
I included a summary report that breaks out the revenues and expenditures recorded in the Park Board
fund, along with the current balances. The bottom of the summary breaks out the funds designated for
projects the Park Board agreed to and council adopted with the budget. Any contributions received for
the dog park will be added to the designation for the dog park balance. For the East Park, the
designation came from the ARCON developer as park dedication to develop the East Park. The balance
of $23,190 remains after the prairie grass and saplings were planted.
Per discussion with staff and council, the repairs to Monument Park are postponed. While there is
settling of the monument, repairs are not needed right away. When the repairs become necessary, the
debt service relief fund 390 may cover the costs as planned.
Council reviewed upcoming capital projects at their last workshop. Council determined the Northland
Drive overlay project will be scheduled in 2024. The Northland Park trail pavement project will be
completed as part of the Northland Dr project.
Staff has been researching irrigation systems for Millstream and Centennial Parks. Millstream does not
have enough water pressure in the well to add irrigation at this time. Staff recommends to postpone
the irrigation in Millstream until other options for water supply can be determined. Irrigation in
Centennial Park is not recommended at this time. Also, picnic table replacements at Centennial Park can
be postponed. The current tables are in good shape. The park dedication funds can be used for other
more needed park projects (such as Klinefelter trail repairs). The Treasurer’s Report summary removed
the designations for the Millstream and Centennial Park projects.
