To: Mark Bernhardson, City Administrator SEP 2 490 <br />From: John R. Gerhardson, Public Works Coordinator <br />Date: September 16, 1986 <br />Subject: Request for Recreational Skating Rink - Hackberry Park <br />Recently the City of Orono received a petition requesting a <br />recreational ice skating rink at Hackberry Park. <br />On September 16, 1986, the Orono Park Commission reviewed <br />the request and inspected the site location at Hackberry Park. <br />It was determined that a 65' x 140' rink could be <br />conr`.ructed in the northwest corner of the park. It was also <br />determined that if a skating rink is approved and constructed a <br />well would have to be constructed for flooding of the skating <br />rink. <br />Therefore, the Park Commission is recommending that the <br />Orono Council direct staff and the engineer to develop costs f( <br />construction of a skating rink and the installation of a well at <br />Hackberry Park. Once costs have been presented, reviewed and <br />determined to be feasible, the Park Commission would conduct a <br />public hearing on this matter. It was further recommended that <br />staff and engineering time be paid for from the Park Dedication <br />Fund. Engineering costs should not exceed $1,600. <br />To: Mary Butler 6 Orono Council Members <br />1� <br />From: Mark E.
