P9INUTES <br />City Council <br />May 27, 1987 <br />Recreation Scalze also reported that a Nature Study Class will be held June 9 <br />Report throughJune 26 for ages 4 through 12 in Spooner Park. Registration <br />(Cont.) will be held in conjunction with swimming registration on May 28 and <br />June 4. <br />Capital Scalze reported that she understands that Globe Business College, <br />View the potential purchaser of Capital View, does not need the whole <br /> school. <br />Agenda <br />Item Plo. 25b Scalze also pointed out the 6-month moratorium that the City has <br /> in place on the rezoning of public property until the Planner <br /> constructs an ordinance similar to what the City of Roseville <br /> is doing. <br />Scalze pointed out that Roseville worked hard to get a senior <br />citizen center at Fairview and that she was willing to work for <br />a community center at the east end of the district. Scalze <br />suggested that if Globe does not need the whole building, the <br />City should work with the School District on splitting the <br />building and retaining the use of the park and recreational <br />land, like was done at Lake Owasso. <br />Scalze pointed out that the City lost in the sale of the Little <br />Canada School as well as lost a T-ball field and tennis court. <br />Scalze pointed out that Roseville has a fantastic park and <br />recreation system and quality of life and amenities that they <br />worked for, and Little Canada has to do the same thing. Scalze <br />did not believe that Little Canada seniors were served by a <br />community center in Fairview and felt the City's seniors deserved <br />a center in part of Capital View. <br />Scalze pointed out the use of the Capital View pool for swimming <br />lessons, and also pointed out the Planner's population projections. <br />Scalze felt these concerns should be discussed with the School <br />District, and stated that if Roseville was willing to work on <br />an ordinance that will protect their park and recreation system, <br />Little Canada should do the same thing. <br />Scalze pointed out that Little Canada makes up a third of the <br />School District and should not accept less than what other <br />cities are demanding. Scalze felt that the City had to respect <br />our community. <br />Fahey felt the City Council had to be comfortable with the decisions <br />it makes and should try to accomplish what it wants without using <br />the same tactics that Roseville has. <br />Scalze pointed out that these tactics have worked for Roseville. <br />Page -34- <br />
