Mr. Handy of the VFW will be invited to the next meeting to discuss the building site. Treasurer's report was read and accepted. Mr. Backlin reported that the recent flood emergency appeared to be about over, although many people were still pumping basements, and there were several washouts and roads that would need extensive repairing. 94 Mr. Backlin moved, Speiser seconded, that the village procure several long handled shovels, a crowbar, large lanterns and miscellaneous tools needed for the road repairs. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Speiser reported he had talked to Northern States Power and that they will install the park lights needed for a base charge of $80. per year. This will be the same type as our present street lighting as they did not feel the metered lighting would be suitable. Speiser moved, with second by Backlin, that we have the 2 lights installed, one at each end of the park. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Speiser reported the cost for finishing an area 60 x 120 feet for a tennis court in the park would run $1.50 per square yard or about $1,500. Mr. Gottwald supplemented this information by saying that a multiple use area, 70 x 150, which could be used for volley ball, deck tennis, and shuffle board among other things, would bring the price up to about $1,750. It was possible to make a saving over this price by using village materials and possibly using local talent to help with the construction. Mr. Speiser stated he had a request from a ball team to use the park on Monday evenings for practice, and would like to extend permission to these people to use the park.
