Open Space Advisory Board Minutes DATE Page 3 of 4 7) G. Lawncrest, 144 S. Carter Ct. - Cost of demolition $10,000 before replanting $3-5,000 to replant. Resurface - $4-5,000 per court if court is in good shape. This could not be done here. Total replacement of slab in excess of $40,000 - $50,000 minimum. $20-30,000 for a floating slab. No facilities budgeted for this site. David - court shortage in Louisville. Ted: not proponent of OSAB involvement in this decision. Truman: does not feel this is a necessary addition to open space. Tom: liability to City by having a mal-maintained court. David - cited example of another community court that went through the same decision - found a way to update the court for less expense than demolition cost. David will provide Scott with information on this project during the week. Staff Updates: Scott: update on dog waste clean-up at Davidson Mesa and the Dog Park. Private company adoption; they will supply City with dog waste bags for the next year with company name on it. They will adopt dog parks for small fee and every other month will clean up waste, alternate months they will do the clean-up free of charge. Mikael suggested additional trash cans at Davidson Mesa closer to the west end of the off-leash area. David concerned about exposure of clean-up; people may assume that they no longer have to pick up. Scott facilitated the orientation for the OSAB 2007. 2007 Projects .
