Lundstrom gave an update on the Building CIP and upcoming projects.
Mattison said the commission should start thinking about updating park buildings for the community,
and to check with surrounding communities on what new concepts were being implemented.
Rosenquist and the Commission thanked Lundstrom for everything he and his staff do for the city.
9. Review ity Garden and Off-rcise Area Concepts for Medley Park
Birno reviewed two different potential concepts. He discussed minimum needs, infrastructure
considerations, and potential amenities.
After discussion, the Commission came up with the following recommendations for the proposed
project:
Pet exercise area should be a minimum of .5 acres and up to 2 acres.
Entire area should be enclosed with a 5'— 6' high fence. Fence area must include a double
entrance gate with concrete pad and an additional maintenance gate.
• All fencing should include a concrete or alternative concept fence mow strip.
• Pet exercise facility should have both a small — timid — older dog area and a large dog area.
• If possible, area should be drain tiled to assist with general soil issues in Golden Valley parks.
• Amenity should include a year round portable toilet on a concrete pad and if possible a three wall
system to enclose the portable unit. Portable toilet should be located just outside the pet exercise
area close to the entrance gate and access trail.

Amenity should have a drinking fountain with bowl/bottle filler located just outside the entrance
gate and close to access trail.
• Crushed rock/ball field mix should be utilized for any internal trails.
If turf is lost due to high use, plan to use engineered wood fiber as the base material. This base
material will require annual replacement if turf cannot be maintained.
• Access trail from off— street parking lot and entrance gate must be ADA compliant
• Facility will require garbage cans, notice board, rule signage, directional signage and an onsite
container system to store clean-up bags. Facility users will be expected to stock pet clean-up bags.
• Pet exercise area should have a safety light. OSRC is recommending a 20'x20' shelter with concrete
pad be included inside the fenced area and have lights added to fulfill need for safety light. The
proposed shelter will also provide weather cover for residents/facility users.
• If the new pet exercise area is located a long distance from the off-street parking area, trail lights
should be added along the trail for seasonal evening use.
• Facility should include benches, picnic tables and a bike rack.
• It is recommended that annual tags be sold for use of the facility. Revenue generated would assist
with maintenance expenses and capital improvements. Tags sold would be priced with a resident
fee and a non-resident fee.
