Meyers stated it is his understanding the materials will be treated <br />pine. <br />Edwards indicated it will be pressure treated materials and that it should blend in with the fencing and the <br />other items at the park. <br />Meyers noted plastic is very expensive and that using treated wood will reduce the costs. Meyers <br />suggested the agility system be moved further up the hill to avoid all the activity near the gate. ;Meyers <br />stated it is likely the City will need to level that area to accommodate the agility course. <br />Williams moved, Ruegemer seconded, to approve the dog agility system for Lurton Park. <br />VOTE: Ayes 6, Nays 0. <br />PUBLIC COMMENTS <br />None <br />STAFF REPORTS <br />3. DOCK DISPOSITION AT CARMAN AND FREDERICK STREETS <br />Edwards stated the City did receive a request from a neighboring resident to have the dock permanently <br />removed from the access point located at Carman and Frederick Streets. The dock sits on a 30 -foot wide <br />city -owned access. According to the Comprehensive plan, it is listed as a fishing dock and it is also used <br />by boaters for temporary access on and off the lake with no overnight storage of items. <br />Last fall Staff did receive notice from that neighbor stating that no one was using the dock. As an <br />experiment, Staff did not put the dock out in the spring but the City started receiving calls asking about <br />the dock. As a result, the Public Works Department did install the dock this year. <br />Page 2 of 14 <br />
