Item 84-221 Lighting For Ice RinkDATE: October 11, 1984
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: William Craig, City Manager
FROM: Richard Wilson, Recreation and Parks Director
SUBJECT: Improvement of the Electrical System and
Lighting in the Hopkins Ice Arena Building
The City Manager's letter to the Mayor and City Council
dated October 28, 1983, outlined the extensive improvement/
renovations underway and contemplated at the City shops
building referred to as the Hopkins Ice Arena or "Barn ".
The financing of these improvements was anticipated from
the City "real estate" fund.
During this past year, the exterior walls of the building
were stuccoed. Actually, this included enclosing and elimi-
nating all of the windows except five, lining the interior
walls with plywood sheet, installation of two walk -in doors,
and painting. Also, new hockey boards have been installed,
a new vehicle entrance garage door has replaced the old
wooden folding door, and the building has been reroofed.
The only project remaining is the improvement to the electri-
cal system that includes replacement of wiring and light
fixtures for the hockey rink.
The hockey rink is currently lit with three rows of incan-
descent lights stretching the length of the building. One
row is permanent and probably meets the electrical code.
It was in existence when the building was purchased in the
early sixties. The other two rows consist of wires strung
from rafter to rafter, and clamp on porcelain fixtures.
They were installed in the fall of 1966 with the understand-
ing of the electrical inspector that they were allowed for
that winter only as we experimented to see how successful
an indoor natural ice rink would be. The interior lighting
is inadequate and unsafe.
Lee Cooper, acting as the City electrician, has obtained
lighting requirement recommendations from a lighting equip-
ment representative. The best solution appears to be the
installation of 27 metal- halide fixtures, installed very

near the roof level. The material cost for the fixtures,
power boxes, brackets, wire and conduit is estimated at
$10,000. Purchasing is proposed through the quote process.
Installation by City forces is estimated to take three days
and can be accomplished prior to the December skating season.
Based on the above, it is recommended that at its meeting
of October 16, 1984, the City Council adopt the following
motion:
RLW:ph
To approve the expenditure of an estimated
$10,000 from the City "real estate" fund
for improvement of the electrical system
and lighting in the Hopkins ice arena
building.
