MINUTES CITY COUNCIL DECEI~SBER 21, 1994 street improved at this time. The neighborhood understands, however, that the improvement of the road will need to take place within the next few years. TAX-FORFEITED The Administrator reported that the Parks & Recreation PROPERTY - Commission looked at the tax-forfeited property on COUNTY ROAD County Road B-2, and there was a split vote B-2 recommending that the City acquire the property. The Administrator reported that his initial recommendation was to acquire the property, but given the Commission's comments that this property will likely not sell and stay in tax-forfeited status, it may be possible to acquire the property at a later date. Morelan pointed out the possibility of the railroad tracks being vacated some day, and felt if that would occur, that would be the only reason to acquire the County Road B-2 property. Morelan agreed that the property should not be acquired at this time, and pointed out that in acquiring the property, the City may be assuming some liability for it. RECREATION Morelan stated that after reviewing the Park & PROGRAM Recreation Director's report on program fees, he is FEES comfortable with leaving the system as it is. Scalze suggested that fee schedules be included in the budget each year. Morelan stated that he had no problem with that if it did not create extra work for the Director. The Director stated that including the fee schedule in the budget would not be extra work, but rather cause him to prepare these fee schedules earlier than he normally does. The Administrator agreed that it would be a change in timing for generating the report, rather than extra work. APPOINTMENT Hanson noted that Ken Wehrle has chosen not to apply TO THE PARK for reappointment to the Park & Recreation Commission. & RECREATION 37
