MOTION CARRIED 5-0. <br /> <br />4. Splash Park <br /> <br /> Chair Malecha updated the Commissioners on the progress of the splash park. <br />She is applying for a grant from the DNR. The grant requires matching funds <br />which she hopes to obtain from donations and in-kind contributions. The City will <br />be required to hold a public hearing. Chair Malecha requested the Clerk to ask <br />the Council if they would allocate some funding toward the project with park <br />dedication funds. <br /> <br /> Chair Malecha explained that she received specifications for a scaled down <br />splash park that would use considerably less water than the one they were <br />originally considering. The one they are considering now uses 55.5 gallons per <br />minute and if sensors are used the amount would be less. Discussion was held <br />regarding the need for a bathroom. <br /> <br /> The Park Commission reviewed a proposal for a playground that was provided <br />by Commissioner Ettesvold. The playground would be placed near the splash <br />park. The Clerk reminded the Commissioners that two bids will have to be <br />acquired for the playground and the splash park. <br /> <br />5.
