Mr. McLean reported on his meeting on June 6, 1977 with Mr. Kronholm regarding the park dedication in Country Lakes. Mr. Gredvig and Mr. Gourley were also present at this meeting. Mr. Gotwald had determined that there are approximately 184 acres in the Country Lakes Addition of which approximately 15 acres are owned by N.S.P. This would indicate a park dedication of 16.9 acres by Drovers State Bank and 1.5 acres by N.S P. There is an area off of 7th Street where the creek crosses 7th St. of about 5.5 acres that has been considered for park purposes. Mr. McLean felt this is probably the only opportunity the City has to acquire lake front property. Mr. Nadeau asked if this was buildable land and Mr. McLean felt it was all high land and usable. Mr. McLean has asked for the City Planner's and Engineer's and Mr. Locher's recommend- ations. Mr. McLean said they are still working out NSP'S parks consideration.
