APPROVE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
MAETZOLD FIELD PARK FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS
PROJECT NO. 91-16
Proposed Action:
staff recommends the following action: "Move that Council approve
plans and specifications reqardinq the Phase one Park Facility
Improvements for Maetzold Field and adopt Resolution 93-57
authorizing bids to be taken."
Overview.
The 1993 C.I.P. identifies Maetzold Field as receiving park
facility and storm sewer improvements in 1993. The City Council
and the Park Board have previously reviewed and approved the
draft plans. The Park Board also held an information hearing on
the project whereby all residents within a one block radius were
invited to attend the meeting. Final plans and specifications
have been prepared for this project addressing concerns that were
voiced from the city Council, Park Board, and adjacent residents
with regard to the draft plans.
Primary Issues to Consider
o Why is there a need for the new park facilities?
The results form the 1989 bond referendum indicated that
there was support to reconstruct Maetzold Field into a more
useful park area. The Recreation department and the Hopkins
Little League Association have also indicated that they are
in need of more prime space for their activities. The
project is also consistent with the capital improvements
prioritized by the Hopkins Park Board.
o What are the costs and source of funding?
The phase one improvements are estimated to cost $154,000
and will be funded with general revenue. Phase 2-4 in years
1994-96 will also be funded with general revenue. All storm
sewer costs associated with this project will be funded with
storm sewer utility funds.
