Recommendation Concerning 2006/07 Ice Skating
Rink Locations
The topic of ice skating and outdoor rinks has been a widely discussed item in
the past couple of years. Last year, the Park and Recreation Commission
gathered citizen input from a number of neighborhood parks and decided to
support flooding three test rinks. These three rinks were located at
Chanhassen Hills Park, Rice Marsh Lake Park, and Pheasant Hills Park. The
Park and Recreation Commission had staff develop an analysis model to
monitor attendance. This model was implemented; however, with the warm
weather, there was minimal use on the three test rinks. Park maintenance staff
spends a significant amount of time making sure the rinks are maintained to
the highest possible qualIty. With the warm weather last winter, the test rinks
received little use, even when the ice was suitable. Staff believes that
focusing on the main rinks where warming houses are located is a better use
of park maintenance staff time.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the Park and Recreation Commission
recommend to the City Council to approve the following ice skating rink
locations for the 2006/07 season. This schedule will eliminate the three test
nnks from last year's schedule.
