<br /> <br />Independent School District <br /> <br />Otsego Elementary School <br />8125 N.E. River Road <br />Otsego, MN 55330 <br /> <br />728 <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />DAN COLLI NS <br />Principal <br /> <br />(763) 241-3494 OFFICE (763) 241-3496 FAX <br /> <br />July 19th, 2006 <br /> <br />Dear Bill Mertz, Mayor Klinzing & Council Members <br /> <br />I am writing to you to see if the city would have an interest in a partnership on a playground <br />with the school district and the new school being built, Twin Lakes Elementary. <br /> <br />The bond that's being used to build the school had no money in it for a playground. There <br />really are no city parks in the area of Twin Lakes Elementary. With the school being built <br />and all the baseball & soccer fields that will go in for school & community use I'd like to ask if <br />the city would like to help fund a playground for the school and the area. <br /> <br />The playground that went in at Hassan Elementary was around $125,000 for the <br />equipment and $ 50,000 for the surface. I believe that the city of Rogers and Hassan <br />Township went together on a joint effort to help fund the equipment & the district paid for <br />the surfacing. <br /> <br />The principal worked with a group of parents, students and a playground company to come <br />up with a fun design to fit the site. I've seen their playground and it looks awesome. I <br />talked to principal Adamson and she stated that the playground is used nonstop by the <br />community in that area and by others that drive over to use it. <br /> <br />I'd be more than happy to sit down with you and discuss this opportunity. Please give me <br />a call at 241-3495 to see if we can work out a partnership on this project. <br /> <br /> <br />Thank~:.. ~ ~ <br />/ ~~/ .~ <br />aniel T.
