years of partnership, announce they have entered into a merger to establish a
prominent youth soccer organization in Minnesota and will operate under the new
name BOREAL Futbol Club, BFC or BOREAL (pronounced baw-ree-uhl).
This exciting new journey will begin Fall 2020. BOREAL FC will operate a
comprehensive competitive program as well as two community -based recreational
programs.
Youth soccer in the midwest is adapting to the ever -changing soccer landscape and
BOREAL FC will have a stronger base for player development and the competitive
capacity to provide the very best for families at every level. BOREAL will have the
opportunity to invest in families across both communities by combining and
expanding its vast coaching staff.

"This merger makes sense on all levels. It brings together two substantial soccer
clubs in Minnesota and pairs us together to allow every player to thrive and grow in
this merger." Denise Winkler, Three Rivers Soccer Association

Subject: 8. Review Concept Plans and Costs Estimates/ Prairie Knoll Park/20-18
Date: March 5, 2020
INTRODUCTION
This item is in regards to reviewing 2 concept plans and cost estimates for Prairie Knoll
Park, 20-18.
DISCUSSION
Two concept plans have been prepared by WSB (consultant hired by the City to prepare the
concepts) that were reviewed by staff for your review. Concept Plan 1 shifts the west field
further north from its present location. The south parking lot would be expanded to allow for
additional parking stalls from 89 stalls to 124 total stalls. The north parking stall has been
reconfigured with a total of 94 total stalls when paved. Overall the proposed site total is 218
parking stalls which is an additional 12 stalls from the current configuration. This concept
plan allows the practice field to stay in existence but at a smaller scale. The plan also
includes expanding the trail system around the perimeter of the fields and to the east parking
lot. Total estimated cost of the improvements is $573,903.
Concept Plan 2 has been designed to accommodate additional amenities such as expanding
the existing building, construction of a new basketball court, remove the existing asphalt
surface in the hockey rink area with a new concrete surface with the potential to have
pickleball courts available during the summer months, and a bench seating area along one of
the trail segments. This plan also includes expanding the trail system around the perimeter
of the fields and a trail segment to the east parking lot. There are currently 204 existing
parking stalls and with this concept there would be 203 stalls. Total cost of the
improvements is $1,032,336.
ACTION REQUESTED
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested
next couple weeks for discussion at the March 26,
meeting. From the discussion at that meeting a rec
Council.

Prairie Knoll Park - Concept 1
WSB Project #015279, Project Manager: Jason Amberg
February 7, 2020
Opinion of Probable Costs to Construct Project:
The following estimate is based on the Prairie Knoll Park concept plan 1 prepared by WSB, dated February 7, 2020. The
costs are based on average 2019 park construction bid results at a concept planning level, which are suitable for budgeting.
The cost estimate assumes the project is designed and bid as a single project to a general contractor. If the project is to be
implemented several years in the future, the estimate will need to be updated to account for inflation.

Subject: 9. Consider Street Lighting Cost/Strootman Park Improvements/20-12
Date: March 5, 2020
INTRODUCTION
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to consider the street lighting cost at
Strootman Park.
DISCUSSION
Staff has received the cost of $9794.50 from Connexus Energy to install a security light at
Strootman Park. Attached is a drawing identifying the location of the light which will be
installed at the small gravel parking lot near the trail access entrance point to the Rum River.
Since the cost from Connexus Energy is higher than originally estimated, the Park and
Recreation Commission will need to determine if they would like to still move forward with
installing the security light.
BUDGET IMPACT
If the Commission would like to continue moving forward, the cost of the security light
would be funded from the 2020 park improvement miscellaneous fund.
ACTION REQUESTED
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to consider the streetlight cost at
Strootman Park.
Respectfully submitted,
Todd J. Haas

court stating it was requested by the neighborhood and since it is a new item, the funding
would come out of Park Dedication.
The Commission discussed the half basketball court and whether it would get used enough
to justify the cost. The Commission reached a consensus that a half basketball court was

a similar structure installing two regular swings and ADA bucket swings.
