-4- <br />1990 FESTIVAL IN THE PARK Director Saarion asked for the Commission's input <br />regarding plans for the 1990 Festival in the Park. <br />After a lengthy discussion a motion was made by <br />Commissioner Stevenson, seconded by Commissioner <br />Long to direct staff to bring to the City Council the <br />following suggestions for the 1990 Festival in the <br />Park: <br />1. Use Silver View Park as the 1990 location for the <br />Festival in the Park. <br />2. Hold in conjunction with the Celebration MN <br />1990 event to commemorate the new Silver View <br />Park picnic shelter. <br />3. Hold the fireworks at Lakeside Park for the <br />following reasons: <br />a. Proximity of fireworks to buildings is within <br />the recommended safety procedures. <br />b. Lake offers a mirrored image for overhead <br />fireworks displays. <br />c. Site offers greater visibility for viewers of <br />ground fireworks displays. <br />3. Change day to a Saturday rather than a Sunday <br />for the following reasons: <br />a. Does not conflict with church activities or <br />Viking's games. <br />b. Allows children to participate in evening <br />activities such as fireworks without conflicting <br />with school night bedtimes. <br />The motion passed unanimously: 5 ayes, 0 nayes. <br />WINTER PROGRAMS Director Saarion distributed copies of the <br />November/December Newsletter and reviewed the <br />programs which are offered during the holiday <br />season. <br />
