r-Q <br /> Item # <br /> tYlk River MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Park & Recreation C mmission <br /> FROM: Michele McPherso , irector of Planning <br /> DATE: October 11, 2000 <br /> SUBJECT: Outdoor Skating Rink Locations <br /> As winter is coming upon us, staff felt it appropriate at this time to identify and <br /> agree to outdoor skating rink locations. In 1999, rinks were located at the Gary <br /> Street water tower site, on Lake Orono, at Lions Park and at Handke Elementary <br /> School. Staff is proposing to use these same locations for 2000, however, staff <br /> is proposing to acquire a plastic film for the Gary Street site in the hopes that it <br /> will aid in maintaining usable ice. In 1999, it was difficult to maintain ice at the <br /> • Gary Street site due to the soil conditions. Phil Hals will provide estimates of this <br /> plastic film at the meeting. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Staff recommends that the Park and Recreation Commission provide input or <br /> concurrence with staffs recommendation regarding outdoor rink sites for the <br /> 2000 season. <br /> • <br /> S:\PLANNING MICHMC\PARKNREC\ICERINKS.DOC <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
