Frates, Parks & Recreation Director DATE: October 3, 2019 RE: Kenai Multi-Purpose Facility Improvements Purpose of this memorandum is to advise you that the department is looking at a couple simple improvements for the ice rink. If you have particular suggestions for color and/or type material, please be prepared to discuss at the October 3, 2019 meeting. 1. The existing blue tarps on the exterior of the building (see attachment) are reaching their life expectancy. We are proposing going with a solid vinyl material in red. 2. The inside of the facility needs some décor. We are proposing three (3) vinyl banners measuring approximately 6’x10’ each depicting a skater (see attachment). These would be suspended from the rafters opposite of the spectator area. Additionally, staff will be running speaker wire from the scorebox to the spectator area and mounting additional speakers for improved acoustics.
