ITEM 5.1 Prairie Center mural/gateot NNESOTA DEPARTMENT INFORMATION Request for City Council Action ORGINATING DEPARTMENT: REQUESTOR: MEETING DATE: Parks and Recreation Ross Demant, Parks and April 23, 2014, Recreation Manager PRESENTER(s): REVIEWED BY: ITEM #: Ross Demant, Parks and Lori Johnson, City Administrator 5.1 Recreation Director AGENDA ITEM DETAILS RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council approve the wall mural and security gate deigns and quotes ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT? IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED? No No BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION: The Prairie Center Re -use Committee met on December 14th and among other items, discussed putting a wall mural above the front desk at Prairie Center. Discussion was based around making the front entry way welcoming to the different user groups that utilize the building throughout the year. After discussing the different possibilities, the Committee recommended that a welcoming statement with a background be put in place. They felt the statement should be inclusive for all users of the Prairie Center. If approved, the mural would be on a vinyl piece that is adhered to the wall and would have the ability to be removed and updated at a later time if needed. The total amount of the mural including design, manufacturing, and installation would be $705. A mock-up design is attached to this memo for review. Throughout the construction planning process the committee reviewed the security of the front desk. It was originally thought the since there would always be staff present when people where in the building that a security gate to secure the front desk would not be needed. Since the opening of the building however, securing the front desk has been brought to Staff's attention as a concern. The main concern centers on Commission and Council meeting nights when there are staff present in the building but not at the front desk and leaves the computer and other items at risk. If approved, the gate would be a roller type gate with a see through aluminum design that would have an extension piece to fully secure the front desk. The gate would be "hidden" above the front desk on the office side, and once down the gate would give the user the ability to lock it. The total amount of the gate is $3,592 which includes the installation. Staff has also attached an updated Prairie Center remodel budget which will show that the balance of funds from the budget is $38,611.78. SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: X ATTACHED ❑ NONE 1.
