1999 Agreement for Summer Services at Lake Ann Beach
During 1998, the Lake Ann Beach contract was updated for the first time since the
1970's. From that point on, it was determined that the contract would be
reviewed annually. The contract has been updated and is included with this
memorandum.
Mirmetonka Community Education and Services provides lifeguard services at 8
beaches including Lake Ann in our area. Minnetonka charges the City of
Chanhassen a percentage based on the total expenses of lifeguard hours performed
at Lake Ann. The total expenses for the program also includes administration,
supervisors, registration, mileage reimbursement, postage, cellular phones, pagers,
uniforms, supplies and applicable Red Cross fees (as listed on Exhibit "A" in the
contract). The City of Chanhassen's 1999 total program expense percentage is
29.53%, which was a decrease from the 1998 percentage of 30.12%. Based upon
this percentage, the city's total lifeguard bill would be $21,298.47. The
$21,298.47 is a pre-determined expense and is agreed upon if the contract is
accepted. If both the Park and Recreation Commission and the City Council are
in agreement with this amount, reimbursement would be divided into three equal
payments of $7609.49, on July 15, August 15, and September 15. Staff supports a
pre-determined contract amount.
All portions of the contract have been reviewed by Minnetonka Community
Services and the city.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the Park and Recreation Commission approve
the Agreement for Summer Lifeguard Services at Lake Ann Beach for 1999, as
provided by Minnetonka Community Education and Services. The agreement
covers many details and I am confident that all of the city's interests have been
covered.
