time frame will allow most people to vote. In addition, voter registration should take place to ensure a credible election, and it should be possible to allow voting at City Hall during normal work hours • the two days prior to the election. As for public information prior to the election, I suggest putting together a simple mail flyer to be mailed to the community residents informing them of the project concept complete with a drawing, cost estimates, how the project can be paid for and how the operational costs of the building will be taken care of. The date for that is proposed to be April 2, the night before voting could start at City Hall. Also the same information can be sent to the newspapers. If the Council approves of this direction, it should approve Resolution 5081. In addition I think it should be noted that nothing is committed to this project until after the election takes place. This concept is about as developed as is reasonable based on the cost incurred to date to get it to this point, and the amount of community input. Once the election is complete and the Council decides whether or not to proceed, a great deal of work remains to either move towards remodeling or what else to do with the property. We can discuss that if the Council chooses to Monday. Also, in your packet are drawings given to us from VB Digs for either a four court volleyball center or an eight court center. In talking to Rick Kuhlwein of VB Digs this week, the four court is the minimum they will do, and depending on how much financing they can get, they may do the eight court project. Also, Children's Home is still interested and waiting for the election results. • Community Education is also waiting and I have been asked to attend the School Board meeting on Tuesday evening to brief them on the project status. I will report the results of our meeting Monday evening. That's it for now. Have a good weekend and see you all on Monday.
