MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PARK COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,July 2,2018 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> $715 for lumber and screws, $250 for stainless steel bolts and brackets, and $200 for stepping stones. <br /> Jones stated the brackets will be six inches above the ground, with the bridge being slightly above that, <br /> and the stepping stones will make it easier to walk up on the bridge. <br /> Jones noted the Scouts will have a truck and trailer to move the assembled components to the site. There <br /> will also be first aid supplies on site in the event an injury occurs. Jones indicated the chances of <br /> someone being hurt is low since the boards will be precut. It is being recommend that all Boy Scouts <br /> wear bug spray, gloves and boots. <br /> Jones stated he hopes to begin construction sometime in July and be finished by the end of July. <br /> Meyers asked whether any trees or rocks need to be removed. <br /> Jones stated there are no trees that will need to be removed but there are a couple of planks and logs that <br /> will need to be moved. <br /> Meyers asked if the pipes have to be below the frost line to prevent heaving. <br /> Jones said the mud plates on the pipes will be buried under ground, which should hold it pretty steady. <br /> Jones indicated there is a circular disk with a hole in the middle of it to allow the decking to move up and <br /> down and that he can loosen or tighten the bolts as necessary. <br /> Johnson stated in his view $50 might be a little low for unexpected expenses and that 10 percent might be <br /> a better number. <br /> Jones noted 10 percent would be around $300. <br /> Ruegemer commented the bridges will be awesome to help with the flooding and mud. <br /> Williams asked if he measured the sites to determine how long the sections should be. <br /> Jones indicated he did measure it and then rounded it to the nearest eighth to determine how many <br /> sections would need to be built. <br /> Roath asked whether the Boy Scouts will be cutting the pipes. <br /> Jones stated the pipes will be precut and that he can put safety caps on the pipes if the edges are sharp. <br /> Meyers asked whether there are any ADA issues. <br /> Edwards indicated it is not an ADA trail. <br /> The Park Commission took no formal action on this item. <br /> 4.
