Arena Manager’s Report
Fitch updated the board that the connection to the Gold rink and said it was almost complete. Fitch
also updated the board on his research into LiveBarn which is a live feed with a camera that follows
the puck. With LiveBarn there would be zero cost to our arena and individuals can pay for a
membership in which the STMA Arena would receive thirty percent of the revenue generated
quarterly. Chairman Kasel stated that at the last meeting the board wanted to receive input from the
school district and youth hockey because of pending privacy issues. Ann Marie stated that it would be
in line with school policy so it would be okay with the school. Garret from STMA Youth Hockey
mentioned that they would be okay with it also.
The board directed staff to look into LiveBarn and bring a contract back for approval at a future date
after reviewed.
Fitch mentioned that summer hockey starts June 3th and the new ATM was installed.
Old Business
Nafstad reviewed the water treatment options for the arena and noted staff recommends option 1.
Nafstad stated that at the last meeting it was tabled with a general consensus for option 1 which is to
use the new hot water heater installed for the building addition for both sheets of ice dependent on
feedback from the school board. The belief is the current hot water heater will keep up with both
sheets. Nafstad reviewed all four options with board and there was discussion on the differences in
just hot water and R/O plus hot water. There was a discussion on general governance questioning on

how decisions are made by one entity that impacts the three entities and unforeseen expenses. Terry
Zerwas and Ahmad spoke on the additional chemicals expense from the initial quote was due to the
simple flushing of the system was not enough to clean it out before hooking it up to the new system.
In addition, Ahmad informed the board that the new water heater should keep up and work for both ice
sheets. Keith Cornell noted the cost for R/O and hot water was too high so after research they
determined that hot water was the affordable option to go with. Nafstad spoke on the four options,
quotes associated with the options and how we got to this point but the focus needs to be on how we
move forward. Scott Ward presented to the board on the differences between water quality, softening
water, heating water and R/O. Mr. Ward discussed that heating the water takes the air out and creates
a denser sheet and hot water is a large expense. He continued that other treatments are softening or
R/O which most local rinks go with softening since it is less expensive. Mr. Ward noted softening
does not give the same clarity of ice as an R/O system does along with raising the temperature of the
ice 1-3 degrees. Mr. Ward stated that the design of the softening unit is based on the hardness of the
water. There was discussion on life of equipment and the gained efficiency for running one system
and switching from R22 indirect to Co2 indirect. Mr. Ward covered how the softener removes a
significant amount of dissolved solids which extends the life of the water heater along with other
equipment. Mr. Ward did mention the amount of sludge in the old rink pipes was extensive, more than
foreseen. Option one and Option two was discussed in further detail. Member Lewis updated the
board that at their last meeting the district was willing, in recognition that the school purchased the
new hot water heater, to forgo and use the hot water heater for both sheets until it no longer works with
the understanding that the cost of the next system be split a third, a third and a third. Chairman Kasel
asked if we have any projection on how long the hot water heater would last. Mr. Ward estimated the
life expectancy to be fifteen to twenty-five years. Mr. Zerwas stated it has a three year warranty.
Chairman Kasel asked if an R/O system would potentially extend the life of equipment and reduce
energy costs, given the ice temperatures can be higher. Mr. Ward agreed that an R/O system would
reduce energy costs, but would need to do the calculations to determine how much. There was
discussion on option #2 for $52,000. Several members felt it would be best to purchase the R/O
system now. Nafstad mentioned financially option one is the best and appreciates the schools offer for
a buy in, but with the joint operations agreement, it would be best to buy in today instead of changing
the agreement since it is a shared piece of equipment. Member Wettschreckagreed with the cost share,
but is concerned on the capital fund with a capital improvement plan needs to be in place. The board
discussed the current balance in the capital fund and looking at what expenses are in the near future in
order to determine the buy in option for the hot water heater. The members of the board will bring
back to the respective councils, cities, on the buy in reimbursement.
Members Cocking/Lewis moved to approve option one, use the new hot water heater installed as part
of the building addition, with the intent the school district is made whole in the next two years.
Members Lewis, Vetsch, Kasel, Dwinnell and Cocking voted aye. Member Wettschreck vote nay.
Chairman Kasel suggested there be official approval on the consensus of the three entities agreement
for the Arena Board to pay $18,400 for the additional descaling chemicals used on the old rink to
complete the conversion.
Members Lewis/Cocking moved to approve payment of $18,400 to the STMA school district. All
voted aye.

New Business
Dan Iannazzo, from Midwest Hockey, requested a rate reduction for practice ice hours in the summer.
Two hundred to three hundred hours and they would like to make our new facility their hub, home ice.
Dan mentioned that they are looking to up to five hundred hours next year, but is requesting instead of
$165 per hour to be $150 per hour for practice ice only. Midwest hockey is trying to keep prices down
and bring in more tournaments to our facility. Nafstad provided the board with the back ground that
our summer rate is currently $165 which seems comparable to surrounding rinks, but the approved
budget was based on $165 per hour for summer ice and to reduce all eight hundred hours of summer
ice would create a projected deficit for the year. The board discussed the proposal and came to a
consensus to keep the rate at $165, but would evaluate the possibility for discounted rates on hours for
bulk purchase of summer ice in the future.
Nafstad asked the board if they would like to cancel the July meeting as in the past the board has
cancelled summer meetings.
Members Lewis/Dwinnell moved to cancel the July 8, 2019 meeting. All voted aye
Adjourn
Members Lewis/Dwinnell moved to adjourn at approximately 7:52 p.m. All voted aye.

Operations: 6-11-19 St Cloud Refrigeration was called to respond to a refrigeration alarm and
found a faulty electronic control board that controls the oil system. SCR Moved outputs until the
new equipment arrived. They restarted the system, all compressors were still tripping out, no oil
inthe reservoir, forced oil return and added 3/4 gallon to system from onsite stock to get it
running. SCR monitored system and verified oil system operations. System was down for about
8 hours. During the outage, temperatures hit approximately 30 degrees causing the ice to
soften/melt. As a result of the system failure the two sheets discolored and are now a blotchy
grey. The school district is working with the contractor to get both sheets redone.

Arena Website: Arena staff is creating a webpage for the rink to help give the arena a clear web
presence to help people find arena information regarding events, public hours, employment,
schedules, and policies/rates for rentals for ice and/or community room.
Dumpster/Enclosure: With the expansion, the existing trash enclosure was reduced in size to
accommodate the new electrical transformer. We are looking into options to enlarge of move the
trash enclosure. To save money, we are using a larger dumpster rather than paying for added
pick-ups.
Recycling: We will be adding recycling containers to the facility.
