Motion to table until the August meeting - Walden; Motion to amend the original motion
to table this item until the August meeting or until the committee established by City
Council decides who will oversee the use of the old library building - King; second -
Beckel; abstain - Hill and Sanders; motion carries.
4. UPDATE FROM DIRECTOR / ASST. DIRECTOR -
Financial Statements - The board had no issues or questions about the statements.
Five Star - The north parking lot (football & soccer and parking lot) is completely
finished. There is no way to completely close them to keep high school kids parking
there. A suggestion was made to contact the police dept., the high school principal, and
to even post no parking signs to keep the kids out of the parking lot.
The walking trail from the north parking lot to the maintenance building is complete. It
is an 8 foot sidewalk. They will start on the plazas next week. They hope to have all the
concrete done by the middle of August.
Skatepark - We had the soil tested on July 3rd and that information was given to the
engineer this week. When we get the proposal back on the concrete, then we will get a
price from Adolfson/Peterson before we take the next step. The price we get from them
will determine how much equipment we can buy. The companies we are dealing with will
do the grand opening - they will bring in professional skaters and a band if'we want one.
Having a ground-breaking ceremony is a way to advertise what we are doing.
Little League Shade Structures - They are up and look good.
Median Beautification - Nothing to report.
With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned at 7:36 p.m.
