VI. Reports/Recommendations
A. Presentation on Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan
Andrew Scipioni, Transportation Planner, gave a presentation to the commission on the
Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan. The plan was adopted in 2018 by the City Council and was a
culmination of a public process and review of policy, plans and goals that created a vision to guide
future development of non-motorized trails infrastructure in Edina, including sidewalks, bike
facilities and shared-use paths.
Commissioners asked questions and provided feedback.
B. Park Assignment Discussion
Chair Good informed the commission the intent of this when it was brought up at the August
meeting is how the commission can become more proactive in engaging with the community as
opposed to waiting until someone had an issue or problem.
Draft Minutes☒
Approved Minutes☐
Approved Date: Click here to enter a date.
The commission discussed the park assignment reestablishment and it was decided they are in
support of it.
It was also discussed having commissioners as liaisons to the athletic associations. Part of the
thought process was to look at the list of athletic associations and decide if they want to have a
liaison from the commission with those athletic associations. Chair Good also asked how they
can provide appropriate concise feedback so it’s meaningful from a department perspective as
opposed to just talking at a commission meeting once a month.
Chair Good asked the commissioners to pick out three to six parks they would like to align with
and let Staff Liaison Vetter or Administrative Coordinator Canton know which parks those are.
He also asked staff to indicate which parks have neighborhood associations tied to them. Lastly,
he asked if there was someone on the commission who has a strong affiliation with one or two
of the athletic associations and would like to volunteer on a trial basis to see how it works.
Staff Liaison Vetter noted that staff can come up with some options regarding feedback tools and
putting together a template.
C. Consideration of Special Project Guidelines
Staff Liaison Vetter informed the commission he has received an increase in requests from
neighborhood and resident groups to update or improve certain park amenities and facilities. He
noted rather than begin conversations without any background to what level these requests
might be, staff has developed a draft set of special project guidelines.
Staff Liaison Vetter went over considerations for special projects or proposals.
The commission had a discussion, made suggestions and asked questions.
The commission felt it was a great idea but should possibly be a little more concise and a little
more strategic up front; something that would allow requests to move forward with the ability
for more detail at a later step.
D. Parks & Recreation Commission Work Plan Update
An update was given on the current Work Plan initiatives:
Initiative 1 – Chair/co-chair a cross-commission committee to review the naming of a public facility in
the Grandview area after the BC and Ellen Yancey. Waiting for feedback from HRRC; there was
nothing to report.
Initiative 2 – Serve on a cross-commission committee in partnership with communities of color to
identify barriers for participation in programming. There was nothing to report.

Initiative 3 – Chair-co-chair a cross-commission committee to develop a draft plan on Edina Grand
Rounds, including wayfinding. The initiative has been completed.
Initiative 4 – Complete a study and report for fields, courts and rinks capacity and utilization from
the data provided by staff. There was nothing to report.
Initiative 5 – Investigate possible alternative funding options to support future growth and
development of Edina’s parks, programs and green spaces. Commissioner Miller informed the
commission the committee met last week and they are now pursuing three things. First,
leveraging of the assets they have. They received a proposal from the outside group they have
been working with and now Commissioner McAwley will be meeting with City Manager Neal
to discuss. Second, Commissioner Ite’s will be meeting with an Edina resident who is on the
People For Parks Board in Minneapolis with regards to outside nonprofit funding and start to
flush out what that might look like. The third item is with regards to figuring out a way to get
the Developer Dedication fees back into the park system.
Initiative 6 – Review and comment on the Race and Equity policy statement developed by city staff.
Staff Liaison Vetter informed the commission that staff recently sent some of those policies to
the Parks & Recreation committee for review.
Initiative 7 – Serve on a cross-commission committee to complete requirements for Edina to receive
the AARP City Designation. Commissioner Nelson informed the commission she had a
conference call with the committee and found out it will take a lot more time and effort to get
their city to be AARP recognized than originally anticipated. It was decided this is going to
require the city to make a decision if they want to continue because if it is they will need to
have an extra resource dedicated to it. In looking at other cities that have done this it really is a
year-long process because it takes quite a few steps and a lot of hours to do it.
Chair Good informed the commission Staff Liaison Vetter and himself were present when all of
the boards and commissions reviewed their ideas, suggestions and recommendations for the
2020 work plans. They presented seven initiatives to the council. The City Council is now
going to look over all of the recommendations and the boards and commissions should know
something in the next 45 to 60 days on what the council would like to see on the 2020 Work
Plan. Both Chair Good and Staff Liaison Vetter noted there were a lot of tree preservation
discussions.
VII. Chair and Member Comments
• Commissioner Dahlien informed the commission he played at Braemar Golf Course
last week and was really pleased with how the course is doing. It’s been a wet year
but is in really good shape and gave kudos to the staff at Braemar; it’s really nice.

• Commissioner Ites congratulated Commissioner McAwley for winning her category
in the First Club Championship. He also noted he played the course today and it’s in
nice shape. He has played approximately 45 times since May 15 and it’s a nice golf
course.
• Chair Good thanked Commissioners Strother, Miller and Osborne for their
representation with him for the Parks & Recreation Commission at the Open Streets
event again this year. He noted it was another good representation from the city and
noted there seemed to be a lot of more new residents compared to last year. It was
a fun community event and fun to see the emphasis of new residents as well as
residents just across the border of Edina. He heard positive feedback on Arden Park
and suggested they keep doing this event in the years ahead.
• Chair Good informed the commission he went on another tour of Arden Park, as he
has mentioned in the past, and people are already utilizing the park which is good
seeing people want to be re-engaging with the park however, the park is clearly not
ready and that has a lot to do with weather and that’s delaying them to some degree.
There were people on the playgrounds and people on the paths. He noted it is
somewhat disappointing from a community perspective that people don’t respect the
fact that it is not an open park yet and they have broken down barriers and climbed
over fences. He commented if we see that happening and we don’t think the park is
yet safe then we need to take a more stringent stance to stop people from going in.
How do we take a more proactive step to keep people safe and keep them away
from the property; it is something they need to deal with.
• Chair Good informed the commission that Recreation Supervisor Bushland followed
up on a question from last month’s meeting with regards to the tennis courts at
Creek Valley. The Creek Valley tennis courts are always open to the community.
VIII. Staff Comments
Staff Liaison Vetter gave the following updates:
• The sports dome is scheduled to go up on Saturday, Oct. 12; however it is supposed
to be windy so it may be postponed a week. They are hoping to open on Nov. 1
• The golf dome will open on Nov. 1
• As long as the golf course is still in good condition, it’s not too cold and the
maintenance staff can get done what they need to they will stay open. He added
there will be a switch in the near future of hitting off mats only on the driving range.
• Top Tracer is currently being installed at the golf dome.
• The following updates from Arden Park:
o The Walk with the Mayor at Arden Park is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 19 at
9 a.m.
o The power is on in the building, the patio areas are being poured today, the
stonework on the bottom half of the building is being installed, work on the

plantings continue, the hockey rink is currently being built, the lights for the
rinks are currently being installed and the playground and safety surface have
been installed.
o There are a number of people currently using Arden Park; however, the
contractor technically owns the site. They have talked to what that means
from a liability perspective and at this point they are kind of resigned to
people using the park.
o At Arden Park they will probably not have a ribbon cutting until next year;
however, they are trying to plan something for a New Year’s Eve Skate to
celebrate the 70th year of hockey at Arden Park. It will be an informal
welcome to the park.
• The installation of the playground equipment for Phase I of the Fred Richards Park
project started today. They are planning a formal ribbon cutting on Monday, Oct. 28
and people can wear their costumes; the theme is costumes and candy. The event
will take place from 4-6:30 p.m. with the ribbon cutting at 5:30 p.m.
• Staff is working with the Engineering Department because there are going to be three
roadway construction projects next year that are in and around parks. They will be
planning on how to adapt to work through some of the closures with programming
and scheduling.
• At Centennial Lakes the bridge railings have now been completely installed, mini golf
is now closed and the one section of the sidewalk to upgrade will probably happen
the beginning of next week.
• The Community Gardens will be closing on Oct. 31. The Engineering Department has
a sewer rehabilitation project that will go underneath the gardens. The project goal is
to have it up and running by the spring planting season.

Proposed Parks & Recreation Fees for 2020
Information / Background:
Annually the Parks & Recreation Commission is asked to review and recommend fees to the City Council.
The City Council then reviews and adopts a formal resolution authorizing fees for the following season.
Fee Philosophy
Traditionally fees are set based upon a number of factors such as a corresponding market comparison of
similar or like offerings at neighboring communities, program classifications, fee history, customer
satisfaction, and operating budget and cost recovery expectations.
The blend of these philosophies establishes a fee range that accomplishes one or more of the following:
• An opportunity is created for all residents to participate in basic recreation programs regardless of
their ability to pay. A portion of this sector of use can be offset by the opportunity to use the
Ready-Set-Connect Program in conjunction with the Edina Community Foundation.
• Programs and activities that are kept affordable and accessible whenever possible.
• Costs associated with the activity or the facility are covered whenever possible.
• Users pay a fair share of cost associated with the programs and facilities they use. These user-based
fees do not require a reliance on general fund tax levies.
A majority of the program fees fall into one of three categories.
Those are 1) Essential Programs, 2) Important Programs, and 3) Value-Added Programs. The following chart
summarizes classification basis.

Factors impacting Costs
Several factors are considered when establishing cost increases to the proposed 2020 rates. Among the
most notable are payroll implications related to pressures for instructors and seasonal staff due to low
unemployment. This low level of unemployment creates cost pressures of workforce competition and often,
increased wage pressures. Recruiting and retaining specialty positions is also a challenge. From lifeguards to
specialty instructors, ensuring that seasonal staff is retained over multiple years allows for consistent offering
of services to our customers, and most importantly, safer environments for patrons. There is a great benefit
to retaining staff for multiple years to complement experienced employees with first year staff. The last main
factor that tends to increase cost pressures is contracting and specialty repairs due to busy trade providers.
Facilities staff have developed solid relationships with vendors and contractors that work on specialty
equipment to the city’s benefit. However, trade vendors are busy and that is reflected in increasing
contracting costs.
Cost Recovery Calculations
In addition, enterprise funds will now focus on a Management Cost Recovery calculation. This calculation
includes the ratio of operating revenue to operating expenses. This calculation includes a one to one utility
offset and does not include the facilities capital, depreciation or central services. Total cost recovery will
still be tracked and analyzed for accounting and financial requirements. A final Management Cost Recovery
Range will be established prior to adoption of the 2020/2021 Operating Budget. Preliminary ranges for the
enterprise facilities are anticipated as follows:
STAFF REPORT Page 3
Enterprise Facility Management Cost Recovery
(Preliminary Range)
Aquatic Center 130-135%
Braemar Golf Course 150-160%
Braemar Golf Dome 235-240%
Braemar Ice Arena 110-115%
Braemar Sports Dome 120-125%
Centennial Lakes 75-80%
Edinborough Park 92-98%
Revenue Sources
The spectrum of class, course and program offerings is a diverse mix considering the multitude of options
available through the work of the department. Each facility or program area revenue sources are unique and
described below in greater detail:
Aquatic Center
• Total Average Anticipated Revenue: $1,050,000
• Preliminary Management Cost Recovery Range: 130-135%
• 2020 Fee Changes: The Aquatic Center season is anticipated to run from June 5 to August 16, 2020.
This translates to an 11-weekend season. One of the primary expenses is seasonal payroll. Seasonal
staffing availability is also a limiting factor when programming the operating schedule. Season passes,
swim lane rentals and birthday packages are proposed at a 5% increase. All other costs will be held
to 2019 levels.

Braemar Golf Operations
• Total Average Combined Anticipated Revenue: $4,050,000
• Golf Course Preliminary Management Cost Recovery Range: 150-160%
• Golf Dome Preliminary Management Cost Recovery Range: 235-240%
• 2020 Fee Changes: Beginning in 2020, golf operations will have one season of operation completed
since the final construction phase of the golf course projects. The review of the 2019 season is
already begun and most notable is that the course is slightly behind in rates compared to similar or
like operations in this market. In addition, the improved course conditions correlate to an improved
experience. In order to sustain this level of service, a modest per round increase is recommended
for green fees and driving range buckets. A slightly larger per round increase is recommended for
weekday and weekend greens fees for non-players card holders. The popular players card program,
which allows an individual to make early tee time reservations and provides up to 20% off other
eligible purchases, will increase from $80 (prorated at $75 in 2019 due to the timing of the course
opening) to $90 for residents; and $100 (prorated at $95 in 2019 due to the timing of the course
opening) to $125 for non-residents. New programs for youth and adults have been added for 2020
and new fees established. Most other fees and charges have been held at 2019 prices.
Golf dome pricing was increased prior to the implementation of the TopTracer technology in
August 2019 and no additional increase is proposed. However, several new rates have been
memorialized to accommodate the variety of ways patrons will utilize the dome technology.

Braemar Ice Arena
• Total Average Anticipated Revenue: $2,550,000
• Preliminary Management Cost Recovery Range: 110-115%
• 2020 Fee Changes: A majority of fees at the Braemar Ice Arena will be held to 2019 levels.
Exceptions are prime hourly ice rentals, some off-season rates and development skating fees. In
addition to staffing and repair cost pressures, the arena staff has invested in energy efficient
equipment upgrades. While those improvements are based upon a return on investment ratio, they
have moderated the cost increases in utility expenses. Staff continues to review opportunities
incorporate sustainable improvements.
• Typical Revenue Sources:
Braemar Sports Dome
• Total Average Anticipated Revenue: $485,000
• Preliminary Management Cost Recovery Range: 120-125%
• 2020 Fee Changes: Sports dome field fee increases are proposed for prime, late night and full field
non-prime hours. Field rates for Edina athletic associations are also proposed for increases.
However, those charges are limited to an increase of no more than 3% based upon the agreement
for use of the sports dome.

• 2020 Fee Changes: Staff is not proposing a fee increase for the pool and track memberships,
birthday party packages, youth programs and playpark admission. Fees in this area were adjusted in
2019 and the rates are competitive for the market conditions and the amenities offered.
• Revenue Sources:
Parks and Recreation Programs
• Total Anticipated Revenue: $750,000
• 2020 Fee Changes: Increases to fees in this area are primarily due to instructor and staff rate
increases to programs considered Important and Value Added. Majority of program and rental
offerings will be held to 2019 pricing. Please note, staff is currently exploring moving park shelter
reservations from a paper reservation system to an online reservation system. This framework is
still being developed and impacts will be further defined with the development of this process

ACTION REQUESTED:
Finalize commissioner assignments for available park locations.
INTRODUCTION:
At the October meeting, commissioners showed support to move forward with assignment of parks to respective
members.
Staff had generated the following ideas of way commissioners could be involved in park assignments.
Provide firsthand observations or liaison with users for PARC Workplan items related to the utilization of
the park system
Represent the PARC to adopt-a-park groups or additional volunteer groups when working in the parks
Develop relationships with residents, neighborhood groups, athletic associations or others that use the park
system
Be involved in and possibly liaison to future committee assignments for the park during master planning
projects
Using the city’s 311 system or the non-emergency number report unsafe or hazardous conditions
Next steps for the process are for commissioners to select preferred park locations for assignment and for staff to
develop a useful feedback tool. Currently, the attached requests have been received.

slowed for the season and additional work will continue in the spring. Walk with the Mayor was held
Saturday, Oct. 19 and Commissioners Good, Ites and McAwley attended.

Todd Park –
Parks staff has recently installed the seasonal ice rink at Todd Park. This feature is stored off-site,
transported and assembled at the park.
Centennial Lakes Park –
The rehabilitation of the walking paths on the east side of the park was an approved 2019 Capital
Improvement Project. That work to remove the worn asphalt and replace it with concrete to match the
remainder of the park paths was completed this month.
Edinborough Park -
On Friday, Oct. 25, Edinborough Park hosted our annual ‘Not so Scary Halloween Party. This family
friendly event had a great turnout. We had 69 children pre-registered and we had 231 admissions
purchased on the day of the event for a total of 300 paid attendees. Total attendance was well over 600
people. Everyone enjoyed dressing up in fun costumes, trick or treating, creating craft projects, playing
Halloween Bingo and the magic show in the amphitheater.
Fred Richards -
Staff ended the season by hosting a Costumes and Candy event at Fred Richards Park to dedicate the new
playground. Work continues to complete the picnic shelter. Due to the weather multiple ribbon cuttings
were conducted as kids in the area dropped by to play. Commissioner Ites attended.
