AANDOVER PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION
December 5, 1985
The regularly scheduled meeting of the Andover Park and Recreation
Commission was called to order at 7:35 p.m. by Chairman Prochniak
at Andover City Hall, 1685 Crosstown Blvd. N.W., Andover, Mn. 55304
MEMBERS PRESENT: prochniak, Kinkade, LeFebvre, McMullen, Sabel,
Strootman
MEMBERS ABSENT: Szyplinski
ALSO PRESENT: JoAnn Audette, resident Ward Lake Drive
TAX FORFEIT PROPERTY
This property appeared to be on dry land and off existing
streets; therefore, making a good possible future site for
park area.
MOTION: by Kinkade, seconded by McMullen to purchase the parcel
of land in Russell Stack Addition for approximately $20.00.
Motion carried unanimously.
DISCUSSION:
There was discussion regarding the purchase of chain link fence
for the City Hall site. The following recommendation was made:
MOTION: by Kinkade, seconded by Strootman. It has been brought
to the attention of the Park and Recreation Commission that the
City Council has shown interest in obtaining chain link fence
for the four ballfields at the Andover Community Park Complex.
We understand that the City Engineer is obtaining quotes. We
anticipate the quotes to be in the $12,000 range. Although we
have voiced interest to acquire chain link fencing, let it be
noted that this cost is not a 1985 budgeted item nor is it
planned as a 1986 expense-(22% of the 1986 budget) as per the
approved preliminary planning matrix. We need to discuss
the impact on the 1986 budget before agreeing to purchasing
chain link fencing. Motion carried unanimously.
1986 BUDGET DISCUSSION:
~~ Kinkade expressed concern for park dedication monies and how they
should be used. He stated that it would be a good idea to be able
to set some of that money aside for a base for growth. McMullen
stated that we have to anticipate people's needs in the future.

prochniak stated that this money should be used. Strootman stated
that the money we now have in park dedication should be used in
the areas that were missed in the past and from now on,it should
be used in the area it was taken from. Kinkade stated that Strootman's
appproach is good.
