Page - 2 - Park Board Minutes s-1 Volk said we' re real close to it now. Also, it might be possible to have a soccer practice field where the BMX track was . 1988 BUDGET AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS Don Volk presented the approved final budget . No discussion. UPDATE: GREATER CENTENNIAL PARK AND RECREATION PLANNING COMMITTEE (GCPRPC) KEN JOHNSON Ken -Johnson is our Lino Lakes representative. He explained how the committee wants to hire a resourse person to help the planning committee decide whether Lino Lakes , Centerville, Lexington, Circle Pines and Blaine would benefit by having a full-time parks person. The cost for this would be $2, 000. This would be split by all of the communities mentioned above. The question Ken raised is whether the City of Lino Lakes would help support the parks person (if and when hired) with his or her salary. Ken Johnson would like to confront the City Council with the question of whether the City of Lino Lakes would share the $2, 000 cost for the resourse person to help decide what action to take next for the parks . Ken asked if he could be put on the agenda for the March 14th Council meeting. Connie/Secretary said she would arrange this and contact Ken by telephone.
