March 7, 1984 Park Board Minutes Page 5 <br />Gunderman asked for the Park Board's comments. <br />Solberg said it sounds good if we have good control.. <br />Anderson said it is a low risk. Just want to have $700-$800 to <br />study it and the School District will: match-that. <br />Solberg said she would be afraid of the School District taking <br />exclusive use but with the .Joint Powers Agreement it should be ok. <br />Olson said-she agrees to the feasibility study and then would <br />like an opportunity to look at it again. <br />Hogan said he would agree to the feasibility study if it would <br />produce a quality field and a-Joint Powers :Agreement-would be <br />written. <br />Rose said it sounds proper and asked if there would be alternative <br />sites. <br />Anderson said yes, only the Irondale site. needs to be professionally <br />studied, the other sites he can do. <br />Motion by Olson, seconded. by Solberg, to recommend. allocation of <br />$700-800 from the CIP Community Involvement fund, to be matched <br />by the School District, for a feasibility study for lighted ball <br />fields at .Irondale. <br />Motion carried. Gunderman opposed.. <br />Janecek mentioned that .the Council did adopt the 5 year CIP as <br />it was presented. <br />C. St. John's Gift <br />Anderson said St. John's School presented a $250 gift tobe used <br />at Vets and to be matched by our community involvement fund, <br />-Would like to have some ideas from the Park Board. We do face <br />the problem of coming up with something that is portable because <br />of the. redevelopment of the park and downtown area. <br />Gunderman suggested giving it back to the students and ask them <br />for ideas and suggestions of what they want.. <br />Anderson said some playground equipment could be installed in <br />such a way that it could be moved,. <br />Johnson asked if we might want to match the gift but use it at a <br />later .date. <br />Anderson said kids don't like to ldpk to the future, We don`t. <br />know how long it will be before something happens at Veterans. <br />It could be 4 or 5 years. <br />Olson felt a gift from kids should be dealt with soon. <br />Anderson agreed. Would like to have something in this summer. <br />
