with the Council and Department Heads at the <br />Strategic Planning on Saturday, April 9. <br />Commissioner Stevenson requested that an <br />additional goal be listed. That goal is to look <br />into the acquisition of additional park land. <br />Commissioner Silvis made a motion, seconded by <br />Chairperson Burmeister to investigate into <br />property which could be purchased for additional <br />parkland.

This is the field <br />that LLLL is provided with. Because the LLLL <br />budgets $10 / player for capital improvement <br />needs, and because MV had 47 players register for <br />LLLL in 1993, the LLLL wishes to return the <br />capital improvement in the form of safety fences <br />at Oakwood Park. Director Saarion expressed he <br />delight that for once an Association has offered <br />cooperative funding for improvements. Usually <br />associations are very demanding and do not feel <br />the need to contribute to improvement funding. <br />This is a new cooperative funding endeavor and <br />Director Saarion encouraged the Commission to take <br />the offer and provide a cooperative capital <br />improvement to Oakwood Park in the form of safety <br />fencing for the players' benches. <br />Commissioner Silvis made a motion seconded by <br />Chair Burmeister to approve the receipt of the <br />money and the joint project venture of players <br />benches safety fencing. Motion passed: 4 ayes, 0 <br />nayes. <br />Commissioner Trettel suggested that this venture <br />be written up in the City Newsletter to <br />demonstrate what good things can happen when <br />groups work together. <br />GREENFIELD <br />BASEBALL <br />FIELD: Director Saarion reported that the netting will be <br />installed at Greenfield Baseball field - paid out <br />of Recreation Activity profits.
