There are plans to open the warming house December 22, weather permitting. Councilman Baumgartner stated the Council appropriated $3000 for underground lights at Lambert Park. In order to temporarily install them above ground, it will cost an additional $450. This will provide new lights for this season rather than waiting until next year. Mayor Johnson: If you are asking for approval to go ahead with the spending of the $450, my answer would be negative. Councilman Shelquist: I feel the same. Councilman Hodges: Are we talking about funds within the Park 4 Recreation Department? Administrator Achen: These are funds budgeted for 1976. Councilman Baumgartner moved to authorize the Park 4 Recreation Dept. to proceed with the lighting project in Lambert Park not to exceed $3500. The motion died for lack of a second. COUNCILMAN PICKAR'S REPORT No report. Are you making arrangements to send thank you's to all who worked on the open house? Administrator Achen replied that this is being worked out with the Bicentennial Committee. COUNCILMAN SHELQUIST'S REPORT The Planning Commission is holding only one meeting this month, December 17. Regarding the snowmobile ordinance -- by reference, we are adopting some Minnesota Statutes and Department of Natural Resources regulations. I would like to request Administrator Achen to procure copies of these for anyone who might be interested. Mayor Johnson suggested that Gene Skiba note the proposed new snowmobile ordinance in the New Brighton Bulletin. Administrator Achen reminded the Council that Ramsey County Commissioner Bob Orth will be at the next agenda meeting. Attorney Meyers stated that he was assuming the Council did not oppose keeping the municipal court in New Brighton and asked permission to prepare a resolution stating that for the next meeting. The Council indicated its willingness to consider such a resolution. MSP ( Shelquist- Baumgartner) to adjourn at 12 :32 a.m. Respectfully submitted, Ma Achen Clerk- Administrator
