Arena Manager’s Report
Fitch reported that the Mighty Ducks money has been received by the school and thatthe Knights 2
Remember Event went well. Fitch continued updating the board on the progress of the refrigeration
connection, delivery of the Resurfacer this week and surrounding area projected ice rates for 2019-
2020 season.
Fitch informed the board that there is an issue with the sun setting on the west side of the rink that
there is a thirty minute window where it is blinding to players. Staff has put up a black divider for a
temporary solution, but are looking into more of a permanentsolution such as blinds or 3M coating.
Nafstad stated that staff would come back at a future meeting with options.
Nafstad updated the board on a vendor that has wanted to put in an ATM with an advertising Kiosk
and summarized the terms of the agreement in which the STMA arena would receive 60% of the
revenue with a minimum of $4,200 annually. There was discussion on location and school ad policy
since the vendor was looking for it being located in the new building. There was also discussion on the
current ATM staying in the old lobby if the provider wanted to keep it there. Staff summarized the
draft agreement with the vendor. The board discussed having the school board look at the agreement,
display, location and advertising prior to approval. Karl from STMA Youth Hockey Association
questioned having a separate vendor since they have an arrangement with the board to handle
advertising in the arena. Nafstad acknowledged their concern, but noted that in the advertising
agreement that was entered into with the STMA Youth Hockey Association was written with the
exception of ATM Kiosk and digital boards. Member Sorensen suggested that the board table the item
and bring it up at the joint governance meeting at the end of the month. It was tabled.
Nafstad reported to the board that part of the building project is to combine or have one mechanical
room to house the two ice resurfaces. The old sheet currently uses R/O cold water and the new sheet

has hot water and for operations staff would like the board to discuss options to use hot water for both
sheets of ice. Nafstad went through four options available with the board that is moving toward both
sheets using hot water. The preferred end result would be to install a new R/O and hot water heaters
designed to serve both ice sheets, but realizing budget constraints other options are to phase it in over
time. The board discussed the options and how they are funded. Chairman Kasel noted in the end the
preferred system is R/O and hot water for both sides, but suggested going with option 1 and using the
current hot water heater for both sides for this year and then move towards the upgrade. Kasel also
mentioned that each member should bring these options back their respective boards for their opinion.
This item was tabled where it will be brought to each entities board.
Old Business
Lannes presented the draft budget for 2019 with changes including asummer rate from $130 per hour
to $155 per hour, the prime rate from $200 per hour to $205 per hour, and the game rate from $240
per hour to $245 per hour which brings the budget shortfall to $33,546.76. Chairman Kasel asked
what do the rates need to be at to breakeven. Lannes mentioned $220 per hour for prime rate for 2019.
Lannes also informed the board that the budget has to balance so if they wanted to adopt the budget as
it is presented a line item in revenue would be added to state funds from cash balance or the three
entity split for the contract. The board discussed options for balancing the budget including rates.
Nafstad mentioned taking about a rate increase across all rates brining prime rate to $215, summer rate
to $165 and game rate to $265. Member Wettschreck asked staff if there are any expenses that can be
looked at and decreased. Nafstadstated we are only working with 3-4 months of utilities budget, but it
is our best estimate but usually energy consumption increases in the summer. Nafstad also pointed out
we pushed ice rental to the max for busy season using all available ice time in the budget and working
planning for greater concession revenues. They discussed other revenue options such as Sunday nights
during the season or more summer ice sales.The board discussed increase in rates to cover the
expenses without subsidizing the arena.
Members Vetsch/Sorensen moved to adopt the 2019 budget with the prime rate at $215, summer rate
at $165 and game rate at $265 effective April 8, 2019. All voted aye.
Karl from Youth Hockey Association asked the board if there was a way they could look at increasing
the sellable advertising space so they could offset the rate increase on their organization and members.
The board directed Nafstad to discuss this item with Ann-Marie Foucault.
New Business
Fitch asked the board if there would be an interest in using live barn which is a live feed of rinks that
follows the puck at no cost to the facility. The Arena would receive a portion of the money paid by
membership/subscribers quarterly. The board directed staff to discuss this option with STMA Youth
Hockey Association and the School District because the players, minors, would be on camera. Nafstad
would also like to look at control issues for live barn also.
Member Dwinnell excused herself from the meeting at 6:56 p.m.
Fitch was contacted by Birdie for Brains about a putting a plaque in the facility dedicated to Harv and
was asking the board for direction. Chairman Kasel stated if they want it in the new facilitythey
would need to go through the school. Nafstad added that they will be directed through STMA Youth

Hockey as well and have them address it and will come back through the STMA Arena Board for
approval.
Member Vetsch asked if we could send a picture to the new rink to Kraft and say thank you. Nafstad
said staff could do that.
There was a short discussion on policy for skaters and coaches to wear helmets for non-sanctioned
high school event or association. Staff will look into a possible policy and check the liability if it
would change exposure. This discussion will come back at a later date after staff research.
Adjourn
Members Sorensen/Lewis moved to adjourn at approximately 7:06 p.m. All voted aye.

ATM on Arena's premiseslocated at 5898 Lachman Avenue NE, Albertville,
Minnesota, in the approximate location shown on the attached Exhibit A. Arena
shall provide such space for the ATM as necessary to enable customers to have
access to the ATM and for maintenance and servicing of the ATM. In installing
and maintaining the ATM, Infinit shall not put holes in the walls or floors or
otherwise modify the building structure in any way without written permission
from the Arena. The Arena may require Infinit (at Infinit’s expense) to move the
ATM to another location in the building if it determines it needs the location

transaction will be imposed on all transactions on the ATM. A surcharged
transaction is defined as any cash withdrawal made from a cardholder's account on
which a surcharge is collected. Infinit reserves the right to increase or decrease
the amount of the transaction surcharge provided such increase or decrease is
directly related to an increase or decrease of costs incurred by Infinit to provide
transaction processing service. The cardholder's bank may impose an additional
fee. Infinit will pay Arena 60% of the amount of each surcharge Infinit collects.
Such payments shall be made to the Arena monthly, within 30 days of the end of
the month in which such transaction surcharges were incurred.
5.Minimum Monthly Charges: In the event the transaction surcharges set forth in
paragraph 4 above are less than $350 in any month, Infinit shall pay the Arena the

the timeline set forth in paragraph 4 above.

Water Treatment Options
Date:April 4, 2019
To:STMA Arena Board
From: Grant Fitch, Arena Manager
Staff would like to discuss water treatment options for the existing sheet of ice. Currently the
new sheet is being resurfaced with hot water and results are very favorable. The old sheet is
being resurfaced with R/O-cold water, results are not as favorable. With the building addition,
both sheets of ice will be served by one mechanical room and modifications to the existing water
treatment system are needed.
Options to Discuss(ranked by order of operational preference)
Option 1 – Use new hot water heater installas part of building addition (No Cost)
The existing hot water heater was not sized to serve two sheets, which may reduce the
life of the unit.
This is believed to be a good first step as we move into operating two sheets and will
allow for time to monitor ice quality.
This may be a short term solution.
Option 2 – Install new R/O and hot water heaters designed to serve both ice sheets ($52,000)
The cost to serve one sheet vs two sheets is less than $5,000.
This is believed to be the best system and has been recommended to us by an ice
consultant. R/O systems are generally recommended when TDS of water exceeds 80
ppm. Base on water samples, TDS at the rink is 400 ppm, which is why we have R/O
today. Per the ice consultant, benefits of R/O generally include reduced load on the
refrigeration plant, improved ice quality (harder, faster, ice clarity), and reduced energy
costs associated with heating flood water.
Option 3 – Purchase water heater compatible with R/O ($15,000)
Having hot water is priority over R/O and this option allows the addition of an R/O
system at a later time.
This option would only serve the old sheet of ice. From an operations standpoint, both
systems should be on the same system.
Option 4 – Move existing R/O system for $11,500 and purchase water heater (26,500)
This is not a preferred option as it too only serves one sheet.
