1 <br />COUNCIL WORK SESSION JUNE 11, 1990 <br />said it would compliment that facility. The Blaine facility <br />is geared toward individual Olympic hopefuls. Inside Sports <br />is geared toward amateur team sports such as softball and <br />soccer. <br />Council Member Neal asked about the seating capacity of the <br />facility. Mr. Dresser said it would seat 200 spectators. He <br />noted that usually softball is not a spectator sport. He <br />noted additional seating could be added. Council Member Neal <br />asked if a concert could be scheduled. Mr. Dresser said yes. <br />There was discussion regarding the construction of the dome. <br />Mr. Dresser noted that it could be constructed in two <br />different ways. One way would be permanent and the second <br />would be a "pull down" structure. He recommended that the <br />permanent structure be constructed. The temporary structure <br />is more costly. <br />There was further discussion regarding filling the structure <br />with activity. Mr. Dresser felt that this would not be a <br />problem. Mayor Bisel expressed concern that Inside Sports <br />would build this structure and then build another in a nearby <br />community. This would draw activity away from this facility. <br />Mr. Dresser said there are no plans to construct another <br />facility at this time. However, plans to build in Burnsville <br />have been considered. Mr. Dresser noted that the facility in <br />Lino Lakes would be the flagship or show off facility. <br />Mayor Bisel asked that Inside Sports, Inc. enhance the <br />information presented today and thanked him for his <br />presentation. <br />Meeting was adjourned at 7:00 P.M. <br />These minutes were considered, corrected and approved a a <br />regular Council meeting held on July 9, 1990. <br />Marily <br />Clerk- Treasurer <br />G.
