City Council Minutes Page 7 <br />June 5, 2017 <br />Motion carried 5-0. <br />8.4. Barrington Park Playground Equipment Replacement <br />Mr. Sevcik presented the staff report. <br />Mayor Dietz asked what projects the parks department had been able to save money. <br />Mr. Sevcik stated the recent bid amounts for the trails project and scoreboard came <br />in lower than anticipated, resulting in savings that could be used to allow for the <br />purchase of materials for additional improvements to the sand play area, impact <br />surfacing, increased LED lighting, and an ADA accessible sidewalk. He stated parks <br />staff also recently completed work at Rivers Edge Commons Park that allowed for <br />additional cost savings. Mr. Sevcik stated the parks budget for 2017 will come in <br />below budget. <br />Moved by Councilmember Olsen and seconded by Councilmember Wagner <br />to adopt Resolution 17-28 acknowledging the removal and donation of <br />obsolete playground equipment as outlined in the staff report. <br />Motion carried 5-0. <br />Moved by Councilmember Olsen and seconded by Councilmember <br />Westgaard to approve the purchase and installation of playground equipment <br />for Barrington Park through Flagship Recreation in an amount not to exceed <br />$75,802.58 with approval of an additional $96,000 to allow for the purchase of <br />materials for additional site improvements to include the sand play area, <br />impact surfacing, increased LED lighting, and an ADA accessible sidewalk as <br />outlined in the staff report. <br />Motion carried 5-0. <br />8.5. Deer Herd Management Plan <br />Mr. Sevcik presented the staff report. <br />Councilmember Westgaard reminded Council of the considerations needed to ensure <br />a successful first deer hunt, such as area of park land, public perception, and <br />hunter/resident interaction. He felt last year's hunt was controlled and successful. He <br />felt this plan layout makes a lot of sense and because last year's hunt displayed <br />excellent communication, this plan was a logical step towards decreasing the deer <br />population. <br />Councilmember Wagner asked if there was a goal set for last year's deer taking. <br />NATURE <br />
