Upon a vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Mayor Warkentien, Councilmen Black, Ecklund, and Stone, and the following voted against the same: Councilwoman Stocker. Motion carried. Councilwoman Stocker stated that she and Clerk-Adminis- trator Barnes met with John Libby, Secretary-General Manager of the Minnesota State Fair to discuss the problem of providing ample parking space for people attending the fair. She stated that they discussed the idea of running shuttlebuses from shopping center parking lots to the fair in order to eliminate some of the congestion in the Village and surrounding areas. This proposal has been made to the Metropolitan Transit Commission and the Fair Board and Metro Transit are at this time negotiating. If an agreement is reached, shuttlebuses would probably be run from the Rosedale Shopping Center, Har Mar Shopping Center, and the old Spartan Atlantic Shopping Center.
