One is available; two purchases mayor may not happen. The engineer/architect for
project may be selected at October 5 commission meeting. Department Is asking the
commission to endorse idea that the library won't be built on that site. Playground on
north end of property will remain; it is one of two FRDAP grants being sought.

explore skate park issue. Cannot get a grant because city does not have long-term control
of the parcel.

trail.

Not on Agenda -
Mr. Ruben asked if there were plans to combine the Board and the Beautification Committee.
Mr. Dunbar said that is being explored since there have been two vacancies on the committee
for soma time. One drawback to increosing members to the committee seems to be the early
morning time of meetings. It was mentioned a larger board, however, would mean expanding
the time allotted for meetings.
Member Swanberg asked if consideration was given to marketing recreation cards to condos.
Mr. Dunbar said the person chosen for the new marketing position would explore such
proposals. Also being considered is reviving the department's program on C-VIEW and offering
printed program guides for citizens.
Mr. Dunbar said a no smoking policy was implemented by the Department a month ago,
particularly relative to athletic fields and facilities.
