This is part of the cleanup project for the Rice Creek Watershed District and there is Federal grant-money available. B. Long Lake Advisory Committee Dahl stated the committee met on January 18th. The beach building design was changed somewhat to make it more serviceable. Bids will be out in-the spring and hope to have construction of the bathhouse done the end of the year. The committee passed the same motion as the Park Board in regard to the Joint. Powers Agreement. There was discussion on the waste energy .project. There is much concern for its location in relation to the park.. Develop- ment timelines for the park-are somewhat behind. Anderson said Ramsey County asked William Bros. to move their;. pipeline because it is under. ,the road for the beach... William Bros. said they are not responsible for the move; a compromise is being sought.. .:The county, railroad and pipeline company may have to split the .cost. Very little development can go on beA fore it is moved.
