identified as "supplied by owner". This means that the City must pay for the addition of these items. Director Saarion asked the Commission if they would approve the use of Park Dedication Funds if there was no other funding identified for the purchase and installation of these items. While the Commissioners were very disappointed that these items were not part of the project funding and construction, they understood the importance of these equipment items in the construction of the community center. Therefore, Commissioners gave direction to Saarion that if there were no other funding alternatives, that Park Dedication could be used, although it was their opinions that there were lots of other uses for park dedication funds than the community center gymnasium equipment. Commissioners asked why the capital items were not included and asked what other equipment or items were not included. Because staff was unable to answer these questions, Commissioners requested that tree Community Task Force be called to meet and asked that staff put together a list of itemized equipment and materials included and those that are not included in the cost of the community center. Director Saarion said that she would discuss the concerns with Administrator Whiting and Public Works Director Ulrich.
