•` <br />Minutes <br />Minutes, 11/13/89 continued. <br />5. Breakfast with Santa <br />The date on the calendars is December 9. Carol has arranged to have "The Flyers" <br />perform, at a cost of $225. Santa is at no cost (a fireman!). Carol said that the Professors <br />wanted to charge $3.90 per breakfast. She felt we should keep the cost at $5, and we <br />couldn't do it at that price. Another option is McDonalds, who will furnish either hotcakes <br />or an egg McMuffin, juice and milk for about $2.00 each. One concern raised by Pat was <br />the problem of styrofoam packaging. We discussed the solid waste issue, and the general <br />consensus was that it was better to have the kids eat the breakfast and at the same time <br />keep the cost down. Every other option, e.g. cooking ourselves, just getting eggs delivered <br />etc., all would entail plastic plates and plastic cups, etc. No one wanted to get into the <br />breakfast catering business either. Carol said she would talk to McDonald's further. <br />McDonald's will also provide toys for Santa to distribute. <br />6. Winter Programs <br />Due to popular demand, Carol is going to offer some type of skating instruction, as <br />well as the Ringette classes in con junction with Roseville Park and Rec. Pat said that she <br />knew a school in St. Paul offered ice skating classes and suggested Carol talk to them. <br />Carol said that she would offer the same selection of classes as last winter. The flyer will <br />go out early January to the elementary schools. <br />7. Other Business <br />• Pat said that the city would approve the 5 year Capitol Improvement Plan at the <br />next city council meeting. In the 1990-1994 plan park improvements are 76% of the total <br />Capitol Improvement plan, at a total of $454,000, 7.4% is Public Works, 13% is Fire, 3% <br />General (mostly things needed at city hall). Included in the plan was the need to raise <br />money from donations and grants totaling $178,000 over 5 years. <br />Pat also indicated that the time spent by the maintenance staff on park maintenance <br />was estimated. Vince and his co-worker each felt they spend about 30% of their time in <br />park maintenance, and apart-time employee spends about 40% of his time doing park <br />maintenance. <br />8. As there was no other business the meeting was adjourned at 8:30p.m. <br /> <br />
