MOTION: Bob Williams moved that the Bradley/Leonard easement walkway proposal that was originally initiated by Candy St . Clair be denied, in that the money will be better spent elsewhere. Also that the 74th Street area should not be used for a walkway either. Candy Toffoli seconded the motion and the motion was carried unanimously. CENTENNIAL SCHOOL DISTRICT UPDATE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT PLANS - DON VOLK: Don Volk talked with Warren Tester regarding the development plan. Mr. Tester said they hadn' t discussed it yet . Ken Johnson asked that we forward the school lease to the City Attorney - Bill Hawkins , and ask him whether the school had the right to lease the land in question. LAMOTTE PARK: UPDATE ON REQUEST TO OBTAIN PROPERTY TITLE - DON VOLK: Don Volk reported that this item is going to the City Council - He has to talk to our City Administrator - Randy Schumacher. UPDATE : SOUTH CENTRAL COMMUNITY PARK - DON VOLK: Don Volk reported the results from the two phone calls made. We got negative response from Ernie Apitz and Hugo Jorgenson to sell their land to Park Board. Don Volk suggested contacting Ernie Apitz again and offering to buy his land and making the land into a future park and allow Ernie with a life time Estate. The Park Board thought this was an excellent idea. UPDATE : RESIDENTS QUESTIONNAIRE - JOHN MILLER MEMO: The stated cut-off date for returning the city' s park survey was May 20 . John doesn' t at this time have access to the final count of survey returned but his guess is that at least 30 percent of all households returned them. This will give us a count of about 700 . Most of them have been tabulated - There are about 125 left to do - and this part of the work should be completed by next week. What this means is that you should either allow a good amount of time at your July meeting for Lee Mehrkins to review the results with you or you should set a special meeting date early in July to go over the results . NEW BUSINESS : CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS "1988" : Don Volk made this report : There is $8, 000 . 00 in General Fund Budget . Don wrote a memo suggesting ideas how to spend the money. He suggested that we wait until the Park Survey results are in before making any decisions .
