Town Council Minutes Page 3 June 17, 2025 Ex-Parte Communications: • Mayor Kuretski, Vice-Mayor Delaney, and Councilor Choy had none. • Councilor Sundstrom visited the site the day of the meeting and spoke with Staff earlier in the day. • Councilor Guisinger stated he had previously visited the site and spoke with Staff. Councilor Guisinger stated the Resolution did not include the abandoned trailer and asked Mr. Sickler if should be included. The Deputy Town Clerk swore in one person. Mr. John Sickler, Director of Planning and Zoning, said the intention was to remove the trailer in coordination with the Utilities and Parks and Recreation Departments. He noted the condition was not added because the removal of the trailer was outside the site area of work for the utility improvements. He noted the Administration was committed to the removal of the trailer and would work at Council’s direction. Councilor Guisinger asked if it would make sense to do the removal of the trailer at the same time as the utility’s improvement. Mr. Sickler noted the removal would be included in the Utilities bid documents as an add option, and there were Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) funds in Parks and Recreation to cover the expense. Councilor Sundstrom said she had concerns with the location of the building relative to the fields and its visibility. She asked if there would be signage for residents for the restrooms. Mr. Sickler stated he had coordinated with the Utilities and Parks and Recreations Staff, who were committed to providing wayfinding. Councilor Sundstrom asked if the lighting would be sufficient in the winter. Mr. Sickler explained lighting was proposed for the building in compliance with Town lighting regulations. He noted that when the area was not in use, the restrooms would be locked. Mayor Kuretski stated he visited many facilities in the past that did not have sufficient restroom facilities at parks, and appreciates Staff’s forward looking to address this issue. He asked if the Parks Master Plan would incorporate future items around this area. Mr. Sickler said there were some opportunities for additional facilities in the south end of the park. He stated there was contemplation of that, which the Council will review during the Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Councilor Sundstrom moved to approve Resolution 52-25; seconded by Councilor Guisinger; motion passed.
