IV. Department/Commission Liaison Reports:
A. Arborist: Arborist Danielson reported that the second weed control visit of the
prairies took place on July 12, and there was one more visit that would take place in
2021. She also reported that the City had its first confirmed case of Emerald Ash
Borer(EAB) on July 12, 2021 near Osgood Avenue and Upper 56th Street. She
reported that trimming and removal of Ash trees was not recommended until after
September 30 through April to avoid the flight season for EAB. Danielson reported
she updated brochures at City Hall and the City website. She requested residents
monitor their own Ash trees to look for D-shaped holes in the bark, shallow
woodpecker holes, branches starting to grow at the base of the trunk, a thinning
canopy, and/or S-shaped galleries under the bark. Danielson said residents could call
City Hall if they suspect they have Emerald Ash Borer and she would do an
inspection. She said trees could be injected with a preventative insecticide and
residents should make sure the contractor doing the injection was licensed with the
City. She said she was working on the 2021 EAB Management Plan.
B. Public Works Director: Public Works Director Kegley reported that the City added
200 cubic yards of mulch to the playgrounds. He also reported that some vandalism
occurred at the parks, and there was a black bear stuck in a sewer drain near Cover
Park which was released.
C. Other/Commission Liaison Reports: Councilmember Johnson reported that the
virtual `Get to Know the Parks' walk/run had concluded and there were fourteen
participants. Assistant City Administrator Pinski shared a thank-you card with the
Commission that the City received from a grateful resident who reserved a park
shelter.

IX. Old Business:
A. Parks and Trails Commission Vacancy—Appointment to Position: Chair Chirhart,
seconded by Commissioner Hoeppner, moved to recommend Annie Berres to the
position with Jennifer Van Dyke as an alternate should the position become vacant.
Carried 4-0.
B. Parks and Trails Walkthrough Discussion: The Parks and Trails Commission
reviewed a ranking list from the 2021 walkthroughs.
Cover Park: The Commission requested Public Works Director Kegley get costs
together for an infant swing set at Cover Park. Kegley said the City could add the
sidewalk to Cover Park operationally. Commissioner Hoeppner suggested waiting on
the Cover Park garden sign and discuss at a future meeting.
Oak Park Crossing Park: Kegley said staff could add a garbage can close to the
trailhead. He said it was a private parking lot with a trail easement. Kegley also said
the City would add a bike rack and benches operationally. Commissioner Thoreson
requested the City consider adding a trail connection for bikes from the upper and
lower trails at Oak Park Crossing Park along the frontage road. Kegley said he would
add it to the list and take a look at the area. Chirhart requested staff get a rough
estimate and timeline for that connection.
Valley View Park: Kegley said the City could restore the horseshoe pit in-house.
Swager Park: Kegley suggested holding off on the fence until after lumber prices go
down. The Commission said switching out the sand at the playground to mulch was a
high priority for them. Commissioner Thoreson said he had a volunteer group lined
up for the horseshoe pit if the City paid for the materials.
Brekke Park: Kegley said he would get a quote for stairs to the field. Chair Chirhart
said adding an asphalt trail around the park was low priority and could be
reconsidered someday in the future.
Autumn Hills Park Shelter: Kegley reported staff could present a plan to the Parks
and Trails Commissioners for the landscaping around the park shelter. Commissioner
Hoeppner suggested that adding snow stops should be made a priority due to safety,
and Kegley responded that staff would take care of that in-house.

Memorandum
To: Park Commission
From: Andrew Kegley, Public Works Director
Date: 08/12/2021
Re: Cover Park Toddler Swing Quotes
As requested, City staff compiled data and acquired quotes to install a toddler swing set to
the existing Cover Park play equipment. To minimize cost and disruption to the existing play
area, we recommend creating an addition to the existing swing set area rather than creating a
standalone enclosure. Assuming that, there is a 24' x 24' space for the swing without
necessitating removal of two trees and relocating an existing donated bench swing.
Attached, you'll find quotes for the swings. City staff have worked with all three companies in
past projects and considers each of them reputable. As shown on the cost breakdown sheet,
Flagship Recreation (Based in Lake Elmo) can provide the lowest cost equipment and that
which would work best for our proposed addition as it has the smallest minimum ATSM use
zone requirement. We recommend purchasing the toddler swing frame Model # 177336 from
Flagship Recreation. The estimated $4,196 project cost would be paid for using the Molter
Fund, which has a current balance of$97,000. If the Park Commission is amenable, the
process is as follows:
1. Park commission makes an official recommendation.
2. City Council considers project (Next meeting: August 24, 2021).
3. If Council Approves, staff orders the equipment.
4. When equipment arrives, PW staff will install the new swings and play area.
(The proposed swing will be Pine green to closely match the existing equipment)

ANTI-WRAP SWING HANGER ASSEMBLY(SEE DETAIL B)
Assembly: This hanger is made for a 3 112"O D.Top Beam. Determine spacing of swing hangers on Top Beam following the swing frame
installation prints. Mark pipe with correct spacing. Remove H-Shackle by using HEX ALLEN WRENCH to remove the tamper proof bolt.Open the
swing hanger and remove plastic collar. Place plastic collar on Top Beam. Make sure that both halves are aligned by interlocking the tabs. Drill four
#8 holes into pipe. From Hardware Pack 036-0851,screw in one#12 self-tapping screw into the plastic insert and make sure that the hanger inserts
align properly. Then screw in the remaining three screws. Put the steel hanger around the plastic collar. Attach the hanger around the plastic
sleeve by inserting the H-shackle. Insert the tamper proof bolt using a Hex Allen Wrench after putting permanent lock-tite on the bolt threads to
prevent it from backing out. Using a grease gun, put a sufficient amount of standard grease in the hanger to allow the hanger to swing freely, SEE

minimum of 24"between the underside of the seat and the top of the resilient material
12. With the seats at the desired heights and also attaining the 24"minimum clearance,cut and remove the excess chain Make sure to cut the
same length off each chain so that the seat remains level. Apply loctite to all shackle bolts and tighten.
13. Install resilient surfacing material in accordance with installation guidelines,ASTM standards and CPSC guidelines.
Mainterance: At the beginning and end of each play season and once a month during play season, check for sharp edges and/or cracks in hanger,
paying particular attention to plastic collar. It should also be determined at this time whether more grease should be added to maintain the swing
hanger to move freely. Check to see if H-shackle is worn or cracking. Check that tamper bolts in shackle are tight. When shackle is worn or cracked.
replace shackle.Check that self-tapping screws in sleeve are not missing or loose.Check for vandalism. Replace parts if necessary.

Cover Park Garden and Historical Marker Sign
Goal: The garden surrounding Cover Park has become overgrown and unmanageable. It has also
become full with noxious weeds. It is unadvised by City Staff that we leave the park this way
because it undermines our ability to ask residents to weed their yards if the City maintains a
garden with noxious weeds.We have tried to reestablish a garden club that would manage the
garden and have tried a community clean up day, but with limited interest. The Parks
Commission does not seem interested in hiring someone to clean it up and manage the garden
because it would set an precedent and would not be feasible for us to do at every park. The goal
would be to continue recognizing the history but in a sustainable way by downsizing the garden
and coverting a large portion to a prairie garden that would be managed by City staff, leaving the
portion on 58th Street as a community garden as historically designed. The Parks Commission
approved Lisa's design at a Spring (May or June?) 2021 meeting. To recognize the history of the
garden, a plaque would be placed in the park.
Concept: A historical marker on the corner of Peller and 58th Street N or near the parking spots
at that end of the park. It would be a metal plaque engraved with some notes about the park and
the surrounding garden. Ideally, it would be cool if we could engrave photos into the sign, like
the black and white photo of the school kids, or a photo of the houses or gardeners (if available).
Instead of a metal pole, it may be nice to have it attached to a large rock, since it would be
unique to this park and a standalone sign may be visually odd. Maybe planting an Oak Tree
somewhere with the sign to symbolize Oak Park Heights for our annual tree planting?
I kept the text relatively short and informal, but it is a draft and may be edited.

HISTORY OF COVER PARK
Oak Park School
0
If you were standing at this spot in in the late 1800s, you would be looking at Oak Park
School, a two-room schoolhouse founded in 1862 that grew into a larger building by 1896. By
1950, the two-story, wooden school had two classrooms on each floor, and two stairways leading
to the second story. It had its own well, an auditorium-playroom, small kitchen, storeroom,
office, and a small rest room.
The Garden
Up until the late-1990s, if you were to look towards the river where the St. Croix
Crossing Bridge is, you would have seen dozens of houses along the St. Croix bluff.
In 199, many Oak Park Heights homes around Cover Park and the river were razed to
make way for the St. Croix Crossing Bridge. To honor the community and neighbors that were
being lost, residents collected plants from the homes and planted them in Cover Park, creating
the Cover Park gardens. Through their vision and dedication, they were able to preserve the
many plantings from the past for future residents to appreciate and enjoy. The Garden
Committee sustained the garden at Cover Park for many years following. It is thanks to the many
volunteers and Garden Committee members that the gardens sit along Cover Park today.
