ISSUE
Staff has recently completed a review of the use and needs of outdoor recreation facilities for youth
athletics in Rosemount. The Rosemount Area Athletic Association (RAAA) and the Dakota REV Soccer
Club provided information regarding the history of participation rates, facility usage specific to
Rosemount, and the need for additional facilities. City staff sent an email request to all sports coordinators
asking them to provide the requested data.After the first request not all of the necessary data was received
and some data from the sports coordinators was inconsistent with the other data held by the associations.
To gather the remaining data and to clarify the inconsistencies, staff met with the program coordinators
from RAAA and Dakota REV along with a few board members from RAAA. The meeting was successful
in gathering the correct data but what was most beneficial was the background information that was
shared with staff regarding how the different sports are operated based on the facilities that are available to
them.
The 2012 facility analysis shows that there are currently several sports that are reporting they are in need of
additional facilities to provide their basic services. Keep in mind the need for additional facilities does not
include requests that are made for hosting tournaments. As in most communities, there is a limit to the
numbers of teams or participants a tournament can host or in many cases the tournament must be held at
several locations in the same community.
During the meeting with representatives from RAAA and Dakota REV, the message that was sent to staff
was now that we are close to having the two ball fields at UMore ready for play,the focus of the City
should be to add additional green space that could be used by soccer,lacrosse or football. By adding the
green space we could also see a shift in how other parks are used.An example would be Connemara Park,
where currently the softball field/baseball field is not used because the outfield area is used for lacrosse or
soccer from spring to fall.
Please keep in mind that the data detailed in the attached reports can be influenced heavily by changes that
local user groups might make in scheduling game times or practices, changing their seasons, adding new
sports,expanding existing sports, or other changes outside of the City's control.
Staff also spoke with the Athletic Director at Rosemount High School about their outdoor facility needs.
The Director responded by indicating that they are in need of 1 additional field for each of their outdoor
sports.
SUMMARY
Staff would like to provide an overview of the information in the packet and discuss options on how the
City might move forward on trying to close the gap on facility needs of the community.
