I saw the final copy of the letter in my packet. <br />Laurie <br />From: HAMMITT Bob <br />To: SWANSON GRIBSKOV Laurie <br />Subject: RE: Memo on Laurel Hill Park Irrigation (& turfgrass renovation) <br />Date: Tuesday, February 27, 1996 6:13AM <br />Draft is on my desk for review. We have been investigating some ideas to improve the system within the <br />limits of our operating budget. In a nutshell, the pipe is in relative good condition, installation of the <br />Maxicom system replaced the old controller, and we are currently exploring different types of heads that <br />will improve the coverage within the confines of the current system. We are confident that a new head <br />recently put on the market will work. Once that is done we will do a turf renovation project next fall. If the <br />new heads do not work it gets more complicated and we will have to spread the work out over two years. <br />Expansion of the system into the unirrigated area is beyond our capacity to do within the operations budget <br />. We will foward this project to the long list for consideration within the capital budget. As you are aware <br />most of the capital budget is for preservation of existing facilities and not for system expansion. The letter <br />should be out in the next couple of days if the snow doesn't get too deep. Sorry its taken so long. We <br />have taken some time to explore solutions so I think the result will be worth the wait.

Has response to Laurel Hill Neighbors been mailed? <br />Laurie <br />From: HAMMITT Bob <br />To: *Councilor Swanson Gribskov <br />Subject: FW: Memo on Laurel Hill Park Irrigation (& turfgrass renovation) <br />Date: Friday, February 09, 1996 1:38PM <br />Parks supervisor, Tim Rhay, prepared the attached information <br />regarding Laurel Hill Pk. Its probably more than you want <br />however was easy to foward. I need to sit down with Tim and <br />determine exactly what can be done within our existing budget <br />and when. I am going to try to get this done next week and <br />prepare a response (if it stops freezing, blowing, and <br />raining). Would you like to see a draft before I send ?? I will <br />include info that we delayed other projects to make this <br />happen inorder to prevent further loss of unique trees. <br />I have asked John to send Mylie a letter regarding Washburn. <br />We will also notify the Fairmount Neighbors about the proposed <br />improvements. Am also going to get a paragraph in the council <br />newsletter explaining rational for delaying other projects <br />inorder to accomplish Washburn project. <br />Sorry its taken me so long to get to all this. Let me know if <br />you need additional info. Bob <br />From: RHAY Tim W <br />To: HAMMITT Bob <br />Page 1 <br />
