Commissioners Present: Vice Chair Shane Stenzel, Commissioners Bruckner Johnson, Kristin Lackie, Chuck Naughton, and Liza Shafto.

Motion carried on a 5-ayes, 0-nays, and 2-absent vote.

PARK DEDICATION IMPROVEMENT FUND 4TH QUARTER REPORT/FINANCE DEPARTMENT Parks & Streets Operations Manager Jason Baumunk provided the quarterly review of the Park Improvement Fund. Included in the presentation were the Project Commitment Listing Report, Balance Sheet, and Revenue and Expenditure Reports for the Park Regular Andover Park & Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes —March 7, 2024 Page 2 Improvement Fund as of December 31, 2023. Mr. Baumunk stated with the park projects planned the fund is looking good. DISCUSS 2024 ANNUAL MISCELLANEOUS PROJECTS Parks & Streets Operations Manager Jason Baumunk stated the Park and Recreation Commission is requested to discuss the use of the 2024 Annual Miscellaneous Projects funding. Identified in the Park Capital Improvement Plan is $25,000 for Annual Miscellaneous Projects. These are projects that are not specifically identified in the Capital Improvement Plan but are determined to be a beneficial improvement to the park system. Staff is recommending that we utilize a portion of this funding to install yellow fence capping on all the baseball and softball field fencing, 6' and under, and select 8' fencing where staff have determined a potential safety concern. The yellow capping improves player safety by covering the sharp edges at the top of the chain link fence. This would amount to an estimated 2000 feet of yellow capping to complete this. There have been ongoing concerns with the lack of a backstop for lacrosse balls on the south side of the west field at Prairie Knoll Park. The south goal on that field is in close proximity to the parking lot. Balls that miss the goal often bounce into and through the parking lot. Due to this, that portion of the parking lot is not utilized during lacrosse season out of fear of damage. Staff has also received complaints from the neighbors about balls ending up on their property and causing damage to mowers if they get hit. Staff is working with the Andover Lacrosse Association to determine if a type of temporary netting or fencing can be used to prevent this from happening. Staff would request to use a portion of this funding to purchase the appropriate net/fence system once the best option is determined. The other option would be to install a permanent chain link fence along the edge of the parking lot. The fence would need to go right on the edge of the trail between the parking lot and the field. Staff would recommend that a mow strip be installed along with the fence. Photos of the area were provided for Commission review. The estimated cost for the addition of the yellow fence capping is $2,800 for the 2000 feet identified. UV resistant yellow capping is expected to last 10-15 years before replacement. The portable fence systems for Prairie Knoll Park and estimated to be $500 - $1000 for a 100' section. Staff has not obtained quotes for the chain link fence option but will if this option is of interest to the Park & Recreation Commission. The fence would be either 6' or 8' depending on what Lacrosse suggests along with a mow strip. Commissioner Lackie suggested going with the permanent solution. Commissioner Johnson asked if there was any player concern with the 15' and Mr. Baumunk stated no. Regular Andover Park & Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes —March 7, 2024 Page 3 Mr. Baumunk requested the Park and Recreation Commission discuss the two presented projects and provide direction to staff on how to proceed. ANOKA COUNTYSHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT 4TH QUARTER REPORT Mr. Baumunk reviewed the list of reports generated by the Anoka County Sheriff's Office regarding city park activity for the 4th Quarter of 2023. Residents are encouraged to call the Sheriff's Office if they see something. Commissioner Naughton mentioned there seems to be a number of parent disputes and asked if those are increasing. Mr. Baumunk stated this is the first he has seen in a while. This incident did not involve Andover teams. OUTSTANDING ITEMS 1. On -going Projects: Mr. Baumunk reviewed Parks and Streets staff have been very active removing diseased and dead trees in various parks and along trails, mainly Ash Trees. Emerald Ash Borer has taken a heavy toll on many of the Ash trees in the area. Trees are treated as deemed beneficial, but treatment does not always lead to saving the trees from dying. 2. Updates from Previous Meetings: Pine Hills Multipurpose Building — Work continues planning for this project. Staff determined that the well at the park will not be able to be utilized for the shelter. Cost estimates are being sought to install a well for the building. Along with that, requests for cost estimates for septic and power have been sent out. New Trail Segment Along Crosstown — The new proposed trail segment along the south side of Crosstown Boulevard from Bluebird Street to Xeon Street is currently in the design phase. Irrigation Improvements — Irrigation improvements in Sofie's South and Hickory Meadows Parks are planned for spring of 2024. Staff is currently working with an irrigation contractor on the addition at Sofie's South Park. Hickory Meadows installation will be done in-house by Parks Staff and that design plan is currently being put together. Hills of Bunker Lake West Parking Lot Paving — Design for this project is complete and will be put out for bid in early March. This project is being done in conjunction with the Full Depth Reclamation roadway project planned for the surrounding neighborhood. Other Items of Interest: Mr. Baumunk provided updates on New Trail Segment Along Coon Creek — The easement has been secured and a DNR Local Trail Connection Grant will be applied for in March of 2024. GameTime Playground Grant — The grant was awarded and the three playground replacements for 2024 have been delivered. All three are comparable in size to our standard neighborhood playground structures. Regular Andover Park & Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes —March 7, 2024 Page 4 Field Schedules — All schedules have been received. There were no issues. The lacrosse and soccer schedules should go in shortly. Boreal FC and Coon Rapids are negotiating on field space. There is interest from Minnesota Ultimate for the use of fields at Hidden Creek North. No special equipment needs are necessary. 4. Parks Maintenance Update: Mr. Baumunk reviewed the Weekly Parks Maintenance for 1/26/24, 2/2/24, 2/9/24 and 2/16/24. OTHER ITEMS OR UPDA TES — NONE. CHAIR'S REPORT No Commissioners had any reports. Vice Chair Stenzel asked when the fields would be open due to the early Spring. The closed signs are out but the fields have a lot of soft spots. Notices will be sent to the Associations when the fields are ready.

PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION WORK SESSION MEETING MARCH 7, 2024 MINUTES The Work Session Meeting of the Andover Park and Recreation Commission was called to order by Vice Chair Stenzel on March 7, 2024, 6:20 p.m., at the Andover City Hall, 1885 Crosstown Boulevard NW, Andover, Minnesota. Commissioners Present: Vice Chair Shane Stenzel, Commissioners Bruckner Johnson, Kristin Lackie, Chuck Naughton, and Liza Shafto. Commissioners Absent: Chair Strombeck, and Commissioner Jim Lindahl. Also Present: Parks & Streets Operations Manager Jason Baumunk Associate Planner Jake Griffiths ROLE OF THE PARK & RECREATION COMMISSION Associate Planner Jake Griffiths reviewed since there are several new members that were appointed to the Commission, the review of the Role of the Park & Recreation Commission, Refresher on Guiding Documents, Open Meeting Law & Remote Meeting Participation Policy and Other Topics/Questions will be reviewed this evening. The role of the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission is to advise, formulate and recommend policies and projects to the City Council on issues affecting the City's park and recreation system. All actions taken by the Park and Recreation Commission are subject to review and approval or denial by the City Council. Areas of oversight expressly delegated to the Parks and Recreation Commission by the City Council include: • Recommend Capital Park and Recreational Trail Projects subject to available funding sources. • Recommend Policies affecting the use of the City's Park System. • Advise the Council on matters affecting the City's park and recreation system. • Shall allocate park fields in a fair and equitable manner, based on recommendations from users and City staff. Implementation of policies affecting resident use of the City's park system as recommended by the Parks Commission and adopted by the City Council is a staff function subject to final review and oversight by the City Council. Andover Park & Recreation Work Session Meeting Minutes —March 7, 2024 Page 2 Maintenance, upkeep, and repair of the City's park and recreation infrastructure is a staff function subject to the control of the Public Works Superintendent. Refresher on Guiding Documents The Parks and Recreation Commission typically uses the following documents as a basis for its review and recommendations to the City Council. If any Commission member does not have a copy please let City Staff know. Please keep in mind that these documents are just the most common ones the Park Commission will interact with and other policies may exist depending on specific circumstances. • City Code 2-3: Park and Recreation Commission. • Comprehensive Plan Chapter 5: Parks and Open Space Plan. • Park Dedication Study. • Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Recommendations. Mr. Griffiths reviewed the Remote Meeting Participation Policy and the Open Meeting Law. Mr. Baumunk requested if a Commissioner will be absent to please let him know via email. The Open Meeting Law was reviewed. DISCUSS PARK DEDICA TION STUDY Mr. Griffiths reviewed the 2021 Park Dedication Study recommends that one additional neighborhood park should be developed in the area of Section 13, 23, and/or 24, Township 321, Range 24 and that this park should be approximately 5 acres in size. However, since the adoption of the 2021 Park Dedication Study two neighborhood parks that were not contemplated have been dedicated to the City in this area: Fields of Winslow Cove East and Fields of Winslow Cove West When combined these two parks total 2.02 acres in size. A map was attached showing this area of the City and existing park facilities. A map was displayed but not available from the audio -only recording. Mr. Griffiths asked if the Park Commission wants to see additional parks in the area indicated on the map. Commissioner Lackie asked if this would be a high density residential and Mr. Griffiths stated it would not. This would be a more typical Andover residential development with traditional lots and perhaps townhouses. Vice Chair Stenzel asked if the decision needed to be made now for planning purposes or can a park be determined when the development project is reviewed. Mr. Griffiths stated it would be helpful to have a general idea and if it were 5 acres that may be difficult to carve out. He asked if the Commission's expectation would be 5 acres or less. Vice Chair Stenzel stated he would suggest less than 5 acres. The placement of the park would be key as it is a weird layout. Mr. Griffiths stated the intent was to have a desire to have a ballpark on this side of the City. When smaller parks were created no large ballparks were necessary. Vice Chair Stenzel stated it is difficult to remove a playground when it has been established. The replacement cost goes up every year. Commissioner Johnson asked what would be included in a 3 acre park. Mr. Baumunk stated in 2-3 acres a ballfield could be included with a playground. Vice Chair Stenzel stated if a field is in a park parking is going to be needed. Andover Park & Recreation Work Session Meeting Minutes —March 7, 2024 Page 3 The dedication of these two neighborhood parks has created a discrepancy with the 2021 Park Dedication Study. This makes it challenging for City staff to have conversations with property owners and developers as growth continues in this portion of the City. The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to discuss the 2021 Park Dedication Study and provide feedback to City Staff. The consensus of the Commission was to plan for a park but not a mini park or a 5 acre park. For reference, Sophie's park is 1.5 acres. DISCUSS 2025-2029 PARK CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN Mr. Baumunk requested the Parks and Recreation Commission begin discussing the 2025- 2029 Park Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The target date for the draft CIP is Friday, May 31, 2024. A projected fund balance sheet was prepared by the Finance Department for Commission use. This projected fund balance does show the remaining payments for the $1,000,000 that was approved by the City Council to be used for the construction of the Community Center Expansion.

Preliminary Plat Review Andover Senior Campus DATE: March 21, 2024 DISCUSSION Andover Senior Campus is a proposed mixed -use development consisting of 1.5 acres of commercial property, two brownstone buildings with a total of 32 units, 9 slab on grade single level living cottages, and 176 units in a single, multi -story building consisting of independent living, assisted living and memory care. All residential units for the project will be limited to seniors that are 55 years old or older. The project is proposed by J.A. Wedum Foundation and SilverCrest Properties, LLC and would be located on the southeast corner of Hanson Blvd NW and Crosstown Blvd NW. All residents of the development would have access to several private recreational amenities including indoor pickle ball courts, bistro, salon, club room, multi -purpose room, golf simulator, crafts room, wellness center, warm water swimming pool, group fitness, fitness equipment room and therapy spaces. During previous review of a sketch plan for this development, the pickleball courts were originally shown as being outside and potentially accessible to the public. However, as review has continued the pickleball courts are now located inside the facility and are intended to be used primarily by the development's residents. The Park Dedication Study does not recommend any additional parkland dedication in this area. The site is located close to several parks and other recreational amenities including Sunshine Park, Purple Park, the City Hall Ice Rink Complex and the Andover YMCA Community Center. The development would also be linked to these facilities through a new trail on Crosstown Blvd NW and an existing trail on Hanson Blvd NW. ACTION REQUESTED The Park & Recreation Commission is requested to review the proposed development and make a recommendation to the City Council on the park dedication requirements.

Picnic Areas: Two other areas have been identified in the Master Plan as additional picnic opportunities. One is in the center of the site near a natural play element, while the second is at the far south end of the site near the lake. These areas would be simple in nature — small clearings with 1-3 picnic tables for park users to casually use. The picnic area at the south end of the site will be placed in an upland area with views overlooking Round Lake. Trails During the master planning process, additional trails and trail connections were identified as desired development opportunities. The Master Plan includes the addition of two connections to the surrounding neighborhoods — one to the northeast side of the park and another to the west. A third connection to the southeast is suggested, but would require the purchase of additional park property or an acquired easement. Existing trails within the park have several dead ends, so trail connections are planned to create walking loops and gain access to a larger portion of the park. A trail along the upland ridge in the south end of the park is proposed to create a closer connection to Round Lake. Proposed trails are suggested to be primarily 8' wide bituminous where soil conditions are dry and stable enough to support them. In other seasonally wet or wetland areas, a boardwalk system is planned to make the trail connections. Existing bituminous and boardwalk trails have some irregularities in the form of wear cracks and loose or uneven boards. Repairs should be made to ensure adequate accessibility to all areas throughout the park. Dock on Round Lake A physical connection to the lake was identified during the master planning process as a missing element within Kelsey Round Lake Park. While the site is situated directly on the lake, the majority of the lake edge is thick, wetland vegetation making it hard to see or experience the larger body of water. The upland ridge towards the south end of the site comes closest the open water, making it an ideal location for a dock structure reaching out to the open water. The dock structure is intended primarily for viewing the lake and wildlife and fishing activities. The structure is not intended to be a launch point for canoes or kayaks. +f Nature Play Circuit: Currently, the park does not include any built play areas for children. While there is a desire to keep the park natural and free of typical play structures, there is also a need for exploration and play areas throughout the park. Five areas have been identified for play features within the park. These play areas should encourage nature based activities such as climbing, balancing, jumping or swinging. Each of these features should be unique and mimic something found in nature. These areas can be as simple as cut logs or stumps to climb, or as complex as a simulated eagles nest Maintenance: Proposed developments will bring a need for additional maintenance operations as they are implemented. The following maintenance procedures are expected: 1. Picnic Shelter with Restroom Facility: Periodic cleaning and garbage pickup. Vault toilets will need to be serviced with regular pumping (depending on level of use) as well as periodic disinfectant / interior washing. 2. Smaller Picnic Areas: Small clearings will need regular mowing, garbage pickup and monitored for vandalism damage. 3. Trail system: Trail system will require increased sweeping and snow removal operations. Bituminous trails will require periodic crack sealing or sealcoating. Boardwalk trails will require regular inspection and replacement for cracked, checked or loose boards. 4. Dock: Dock will need to be taken in and out of the lake annually for winter. Dock will require regular inspection and replacement for cracked, checked or loose boards. 5. Nature play elements: Actual maintenance will be determined by final design and construction type of each piece. Play features are intended to be natural in composition, so they shouldn't need extensive maintenance procedures. Play features may need to be changed or adjusted due to rot or decay of wood elements or surfaces. Woodchip surfaces will need periodic replenishment and features will need to be monitored for vandalism damage. 6. Signage and interpretive features: Elements will need to be monitored for vandalism damage and periodically cleaned of dirt and debris. 7. Benches: Small clearings will need regular mowing, garbage pickup and monitored for vandalism damage. 8. Enhance existing Natural Systems/Habitat Cost Analysis: The following tables provide a breakdown of the costs associated with each development, as well as the level of priority as to which they should be addressed moving forward in development. This cost estimate defines the estimated costs associated with each component of the master plan. It is based on a combination of site -specific development requirements and projects of similar size and complexity. These estimated costs are also based on having the work completed by private contractors and specialists. It does not take into consideration work that could be performed by City staff, volunteer groups, or by other means. The cost figures are based on master plan level evaluation, which brings with it inherent limitations. The costs are meant to establish general budgets useful for project phasing and comparing the relative cost of one item to that of another. It should be expected that the estimates will require refinement as the design progresses into more detail along with a higher level of base mapping and geotechnical information. The costs are in 2016 dollars. Although intended to be conservative, actual costs will vary depending on the year that each aspect of the master plan is implemented, implementation parameters, economic conditions affecting bidding, and unexpected site conditions found in the field during construction.

Discuss 2025-2029 CIP Park Playground Equipment Replacement Plan DATE: March 21, 2024 INTRODUCTION The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to begin discussing the 2025-2029 Park Playground Equipment Replacement Plan that is being recommended by staff. DISCUSSION The target date for the Parks Maintenance Department to submit the draft 2025-2029 CIP Playground Equipment Replacement Plan is Friday, June 7th. Listed below is the existing playground equipment that will be recommended for replacement (or refurbishment) over the next 5 years, which will include improvements to the fall zones. Staff supports replacing or refurbishing equipment at 15 years of age per manufactures recommendations. 2025 — Country Oaks Park (2005), Fox Meadows Park (2006), Hidden Creek South Park (2006) and Woodland Crossing Park (2008). Proposed budget impact is $200,000. 2026 — Red Oaks West (1993, replaced in 2007), Creekview Crossing Park (2007), and Andover Station North (2008) 2027 — Meadows of Round Lake Park (2008), Oak Bluff Park (2006). and Woodland Crossing (2008). Proposed budget impact is $200,000. 2028 — Meadowood North (2009), Sophie's (2010), and Timber Trails (2011) Proposed budget impact is $200,000 2029 — Nordeen's (2012), Hickory Meadows (2012), and Pleasant Oaks (2013) Proposed budget impact is $200,000 The playground equipment identified can be moved up or down the list depending on changes to the condition of the equipment, ADA requirements, entrapments, fall zones and handicapped accessibility. More details of the proposed replacements will be presented at the meeting. BUDGET IMPACT The General Fund budget impact for replacement/repair of various playground equipment is proposed at $200,000 per year (years 2025-2029). Staff will continue to apply for the matching grant from GameTime to offset the rising cost of playground replacements. ACTION REQUIRED The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to begin discussions on the 2025-2029 Park Playground Equipment Replacement Plan that is being recommended by staff.
