AGENDA INFORMATION
Item 4. Bertram Blast. The Triathlon will have an Event Coordinator who will be doing the bulk of the
work. At this time Brad Harrington, Wright County, is working on the logo and I am working on the
website. Our responsibilities will be:
o Securing volunteers
• Ensuring that the park is ready to host the event.
• Assisting with miscellaneous duties as we near the event; directional signs, confirming
volunteers, supplying necessary equipment like tables, chairs, etc.
o Other duties as they become apparent.
These duties will be split between the Wright County Parks Department, the Monticello Parks
Department and the Community Center. We will monitor time spent for updating the Advisory Council,
City Council and County Commissioners.
Item S. The City Council at their November 23r4 meeting made F. motion to direct staff to look at using
the Prairie Conference Center for Friendship Island.
Sara and I have discussed any building requirements with John Rued, the City's Chief Building Official.
We looked at the site and taken measurements and made a list of tasks that would need to be done to
make the space work. Then next step is to re -do the research on before and after school day care; how
much teacher's make, what the cost is, transportation to schools and how to structure the program.
This is a list of tasks needed to make the space usable:
1. Paint all rooms.
2. Clean the carpet.
3. New lock on entryway door to the Prairie Center and into the Friendship island space that is a
number entry system.
4. Put a panic bar entry/exit system on the emergency door.
5. Put a ramp on both sides of the emergency exit door.
6. Switch the interior door knobs to take the locks off.
7. Move out the computers that are being stored in one of the rooms.
8. Window decal, one way viewing, for the door and sidelight.
9. Add a doorbell for non - Friendship Island for security.
I'm sure as we continue to move forward with our research and talk more with the Chief Building
Official, this list may be expanded, however, the facility is in really good shape for housing the
Friendship Island program.
