The minutes of the March 22 meeting were read, and a motion by
Buddy Hall was made to accept them. Tom Walker seconded, and
the minutes were approved unanimously.
There were no citizens requests or reports.
Under Old Business, the proposed letter to be presented to the
City Council concerning the Capital Improvements Program was
discussed. Buddy Hall made a motion that the Board accept and
adopt the letter, in its revised form, which was written by
Ron Armstrong. Buddy also motioned that Ron present the letter
to the Council, and that the Board officially adopt the question-
aire to be given to the citizens. Neal Odle seconded, and all
present voted aye.
The Board also requested that Kevin prepare a notebook -packet of
information to be given to the Council on the same night the
letter is presented - Tuesday, May 1, 1979. The packet would
contain information pertaining to costs of the bond issue for
parks and recreation, and substansial Justification for the target
areas.
There was also discussion of the Timberline and Creekwood West
projects. Kevin mentioned that because it was mandatory that
Bill Grantland donate 7 acres of floodplain for park use when
he submitted his plat on Creekwood West, the City could not obtain
a match from the federal government. He mentioned that this was
done in 1977 and February of 1978.
The subject of open space area for Timberline Park was brought up,
and there was some concern that there perhaps needed to be more
than what was originally planned. Kevin noted he would discuss the
subject in detail with Bob Fail, School Superintendent.
There being no New Business, a motion to adjourn was made by Buddy
Hall. Neal Odle seconded, and all present voted aye. The meeting
was adjourned.
