Park Boa~Minutes ~ 3 w "~"peCial Meeting June 14, 1974 Mr. Moen replied that the design of the community center was not the question. A building to serve as a skating shelter was the immediate need,. but the option to expand-it into a community center should be available if future needs demand it. Mr. Dickey stated that. flexibility would be a major feature of the community center design so that modifications during the several phases of construction could be made if community needs demanded such changes. Mr. Gunderman summed up the Board's feeling that the accelerated work schedule should go ahead-with a completion goal of December 15. If a temporary shelter were to be needed, then the problem could be dealt with at that time.
