September 10, 1979 Mr. Burman said the bids on Birch Street had been let to Forest Lake Cont- racting at about one -third more than had been planned for.

Mr. Bill Houle asked what other Countys had done in providing centers for juveniles and a lady from the audience said that Ramsey had one on St. Peter Street near the churches and their counselors. Mr. Schneider asked Mr. Burman if there was any indications that current bills outstanding would be paid to the City for Police coverage in both the Park and at the juvenile center and Mr. Burman did not know.
