Park&Recreation Commission Minutes Page 3 <br />April 10,2013 <br />Commissioner Niziolek asked how much the platforms cost. <br />Mr. Hecker stated that the cost has not been figured out and that having platforms may not <br />be feasible due to the flood plain. <br />Commission Kallemeyn expressed concern that the platforms would be problematic and not <br />practical. Flooding would cause possible loss. Also stating that it would be better to make it <br />easier for those wanting to fish to create access points with signage as to where to enter and <br />exit adding this would help in lessoning the erosion of the shoreline. <br />Commissioner Anderson stated he would like to tour the park before deciding as to see the <br />river bank and shorelines. <br />MOVED BY COMMISSIONER AHLNESS AND SECONDED BY <br />COMMISSIONER SAGAN TO TABLE ITEM 7.A. UNTIL AFTER DOING A <br />PROPERTY TOUR. MOTION CARRIED 6-0. <br />7.13. Bailey Point Parking Lot Plan <br />Planner/Park Planner, Chris Leeseberg explained that the parking lot,which was approved <br />in the overall design of the park for the grant received,will consist of a Class 5 (gravel) <br />driveway and a gravel parking surface. The parking area will be approximately 90' x 60'in <br />size with the drive lane running north and south. Per the city code (Sec 30-895), the parking <br />area will be setback at least 10 feet from all property lines. Due to topography, drainage, and <br />construction costs the parking lot will be located in the Northeast portion of the property, <br />near the end of Morton Avenue and will include curb and gutter due to city ordinance. <br />Commissioner Anderson asked when the parking lot ordinance went into effect. <br />Mr. Hecker explained that the city has not purchased a new park property since this <br />ordinance was approved. <br />Commissioner Niziolek explained it would be in the best interest of the bikers and walkers <br />to have curb cut as early as possible to allow them to access the park trail before going <br />through the parking lot with moving vehicles. <br />MOVED BY COMMISSIONER NIZIOLEK AND SECONDED BY <br />COMMISSIONER SAGAN TO ACCEPT STAFF RECOMMENDATION TO <br />RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF THE PARKING LOT <br />LOCATION AND DESIGN ALONG WITH ADDING A CLEAR CUT ACCESS <br />FOR PEDESTRIANS TO ENTER THE PARK BEFORE THE PARKING LOT <br />AREA.
