City Council Agenda Report f
City of Scandia
14727 209�' St. North
Scandia, MN 55073 (651) 433-2274
Action Requested: Discuss the proposed Community Center landscaping project.
Deadline/Timeline: N/A
Background: • The adopted 2011 budget $5,000 for landscape improvements at
the Community Center.
• At the May 20 work session meeting, the Council asked that a
landscape plan be prepared for review at a future meeting, at
which time a decision would be made whether or not to proceed
with a project.
• Staff contacted Dan Sandager of Abrahamson's Nursery, who
prepared the attached plan at no cost to the City. The plan retains
some plants that are in good condition.
• A detailed cost estimate has been prepared,but will be requested
should the Council wish to proceed with all or part of the
recommended improvements. (The total installed cost of all items
shown on the plan would exceed the budgeted amount and would
probably be in the range of$8,000 to $9,000.)
• Staff suggests that the planting bed on the west side of the building
could be delayed or eliminated from the plan, as there are no
plantings in that location at this time.
• Another option would be to complete the plan in phases; the
foundation and entryway plantings could be done this fall, and the
planting beds around the flagpole and bench areas could be added
next spring.
Recommendation: I recommend that the Council review the plan and determine whether
the Council is interested in pursuing any portion of it in 2011 and/or
2012.
