New Cruiser Dock Bids

Tim Latterner, owner of Dock & Lift, was present to discuss the proposed design for the ten new cruiser dock slips in St. Louis Bay. The Committee requested that Mr. Latterner prepare cross section detail of the proposed dock design for review by the Deephaven Boat Committee next month.

Paddle Park Project

Mayor Skrede stated that the Park Committee intends to more fully develop the parkland surrounding the paddle tennis court area and the City Council requested input from the Public Works Committee on whether there was a need to retain any of this area for public works purposes.

Dana Young produced a survey showing the location of a 75’ wide parcel between the park Dedicated property and the LRT Trail that the City had purchased a number of years ago from the railroad. The Committee reviewed the 75’ wide parcel and concluded that it was an adequately sized parcel to store various public works materials including wood chips and seal coating pea gravel. Further discussion was held on the possible installation of plantings along this 75’ parcel to delineate the public works parcel from Amesbury Park dedicated property.

Motion by Paul Skrede to recommend that the City retain the 75’ strip of property located between the LRT Trail and Amesbury Park dedicated property for public works related purposes. Seconded by Dana Young. Motion carried 5-0.

Other

Discussion was held on a request from John Goetz to improve the erosion on the trail through Burton Park. Dana Young recommended that Jerry Hudlow meet with Mr. Goetz to review his proposal in more detail before his request is forwarded to the Park Committee.

Adjournment

Motion to adjourn by Dana Young, seconded by Jerry Hudlow. Motion carried 5-0.
